These lists will be compiled one game at a time.

Latest revision as of 01:01, 18 April 2022

Lists of names on the American version of the Fire Emblem Heroes poll that differ from the wiki's usual name practices. Actual moves to these names have been judged to be premature (one reason due to a number of contradictions involving official English names; there are six four listings below that contradict pre-existing official English names--four two from The Binding Blade, one from Thracia 776, and one from Genealogy of the Holy War), but in most cases the names on the poll should be, at the minimum, redirects due to being valid search terms. Only the games that have not been represented in international releases have been listed; games that have been represented in international releases have been observed to have no contradictions.

Additional note: The character from The Binding Blade previously listed as "Thite" both on this wiki and in the poll has been called Thea in Heroes proper, thanks to a quote from Shanna. This means that other characters whose names held between NoJ romanization (or the most recent fan translations in the cases of characters without official romanizations) and the poll could end up getting a different official localized name upon showing up or getting mentioned in Heroes proper much like Thite/Thea did. This characteristic is another reason why this wiki chose not to jump the gun and assume all the names on the Heroes poll would hold in the game proper, unlike some other sources.
Update by someone else: We now use CYL names, but do not hold them to nearly the same standard as names that appear in the games, and only use them for relevance. PikaSamus (talk) 03:47, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

  • Feena: Listed as Phina.
    • Has officially held as of Heroes proper. Doesn't really change the sound, far from the worst that could have happened...

    • Has officially held as of Heroes proper. Not the worst that could have happened, as we're simply talking variant spellings...
  • Tailto: Listed as Tailtiu. ...OK, this looks like the ugly stepchild of the official NoJ romanization and the old fan translations...
    • Has officially held as of Heroes proper. ...Guess that perception's what happens when the people who did the old fan translations weren't too keen on looking up their origins...
  • Teeny: Listed as Tine.

Thracia 776

  • Asvel: Listed as Asbel. ...Apparently the B/V trend apparently isn't as popularly known as the L/R trend...
    • Has officially held as of Heroes proper.
  • Kain: Listed as Cain. Uh, Archanea called, they want their biblical spelling back...
  • Conomool: Listed as Conomor.
  • Dean: Listed as Deen. Uh, Valentia called, Geyse/Grieth/whoever's underling wants his name back...
    • ...Then again, is Fire Emblem Cipher trying to tell us something? The usage of (ディーン(ユグドラル) Dean (Jugdral)) on his Cipher cards to differentiate him from the aformentioned Valentian Deen?
  • Delmud: Listed as Diarmuid. At least those that appear in both the Genealogy of the Holy War list and this one are consistent...
  • Dorias: Listed as Dryas.
  • Felgus: Listed as Fergus. ```Surprise, surprise...```
  • Eyrios: Listed as Ilios.
  • Orsin: Listed as Osian. Alarm bells ringing--this listing contradicts an existing official NoA English name (assigned via Orsin's Hatchet in Awakening). Then again, maybe they realized people were mistaking either this character for Orson from The Sacred Stones, and/or the hatchet as being a reference to the latter character instead of this one? (Of course, since Orson doesn't have axe access...)
    • Has officially held as of Heroes proper.
  • Pirn: Listed as Perne.
  • Selfina: Listed as Selphina.
  • Shanam: Listed as Shannam.
  • Trewd: Listed as Troude.

The Binding Blade

  • Astore: Listed as Astolfo.
  • Bath: Listed as Barthe. ...OK, not even the old fan translation got this fancy...
  • Deke: Listed as Dieck. Alarm bells ringing--this listing contradicts an exising official NoA English name (assigned via Super Smash Bros. Brawl). Who compiled this part of the poll listing, an extreme elitist of the second-worst kind? I could certainly pull the "official romanization goofed" card on this name like with Raian/Ryan and Ruke/Luke. Trust me, the poll listing for this one had better not hold--otherwise those offensive jokes will never stop! Pretty much anything is better than "Dieck"--Deke, Dirk, Duke, Vergil, I could go on and on!
    • Has officially held as of Heroes proper.
  • Ekhidna: Listed as Echidna.
    • Has officially held as of Heroes proper.
  • Elphin: Listed as Elffin.
    • Has officially held as of Heroes proper. ...Of course, it came via Lost Lore, so we still have yet to have a playable performing Bard in Heroes...
  • Idenn: Listed as Idunn.
    • Has officially held as of Heroes proper.
  • Lalum: Listed as Larum.
    • Has officially held as of Heroes proper.
  • Murdock: Listed as Marduk. Alarm bells ringing--this listing contradicts an existing official NoA English name (assigned via his Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade role). What, did whoever was compiling the list forget Murdock appeared in Fire Emblem, or somehow mistake The Binding Blade Murdock as a separate character from Fire Emblem Murdock?(Site has since corrected this error.)
  • Milady: Listed as Melady. ...Look, if you're going to ruin the endearing term, at least call her "Melody"...
    • Has officially held as of Heroes proper.
  • Niime: Listed as Nimue. Alarm bells ringing--this listing contradicts an existing official NoA English name (assigned via her son's Fire Emblem support conversations). Geez, this part of the poll listing's setting off more alarms than chili made with Carolina Reapers...(Site has since corrected this error.)
  • Rutoga: Listed as Rutger. Alarm bells ringing--this listing contradicts an existing official NoA English name (assgned via Super Smash Bros. Brawl). Who compiled this part of the poll listing, an extreme elitist of the third-worst kind?
    • Has officially held as of Heroes proper. ...At least it's the lesser of the two evils as far as these Brawl stickers are concerned, given "Rutger" is at least an actual given name and at least had some business holding (unlike a certain Mercenary)...
  • Jodel: Listed as Yoder. Consistent with gringe as opposed to the NoJ romanization...
  • Wade: Listed as Ward in Round 5, but Wade in earlier rounds.
  • Zelots: Listed as Zelot
