Forum:Names

Alright, just some stipulations and so forth regarding names:


 * Characters with multiple names (i.e. Warrior Dragon, Chote) will be listed only as one name, normally the most well-known or closest to canon name possible. For other names (for the examples above, Hothead and Shoate, respectively), there's always redirects. To make a redirect, start a new page, and type in #REDIRECT Pagename, whereas Pagename is, obviously, the name of the page you want it redirected to.
 * No more of this middle name rubbish on Turtles. None of them have canon names outside of the Italian artist given names that everyone knows (I'll get to family names next). To whoever keeps adding these, your edits will be reverted and whatever sock-puppet IP you're using will be blocked. Go ahead and keep trying, I can do this as long as you can. If those names are in your fanfic or whatever, fine, but let the canon articles be. Fan materials go under fanon articles which are separate from the official stuff.
 * I've also, after much debate within myself, removed the surname Hamato from each Turtle. While logic would dictate that this would be their surname in the 2K3 universe since Splinter has gone by Hamato Splinter (and in my mind, this is the closest thing to a surname they've ever had), there has been no instance in which they've actually USED that surname, and in fact, for whatever reason Leonardo is addressed as, and Donatello has actually used, "Splinterson" as a family name despite it flying in the face of previously established logic. Whatever. First names only until an official source actually comes out and says "these are their last names".
