Talk:Findorr Calius

The Arrancar named フィンドール・キャリアスだ should have his name romaized into Findor instead of Findol, as shown in this wikia, because of these reasons:


 * His name in katakana is フィンドール・キャリアスだ in which the word Findor is フィンドール (fi n do ru). Note the ル (ru) at the end. The Japanese use ル in katakana as a substitute for the english "r" sound.
 * Further examples of this is Luppi/Rupi (ルピ ru pi) the arrancar or Singapore (シンガポール shi n ga po ru) the country. Both words use the ル kana to depict the "r" sound either at the front of the name for Luppi or at the end of the name for Singapore.


 * If his name were Findol, the katakana for his name would be フィンドーロ (fin do ro) instead.
 * Another example of the ロ (ro) kana to depict the "l" sound would be London the country (ロンドン ro n do n).

Therefore, please consider changing the title of this wikia and also all instances of the word "Findol" to "Findor" instead.

That sounds plausible. The person who originally changed his name to Findol never even gave a reason for doing it. Atleast you've given a reason why it should be Findor. Noble Skuld the Legend Killer 21:48, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Wondering why the final hiragana (だ "da") keeps being re-added to his name. His name is not "Findor Cariasda" (Findōru Kyariasuda). The correct hiragana is フィンドール・キャリアス (Findōru Kyariasu). As stated when the final hiragana was removed, だ "da" is a sentence particle used to make a statement (in this example, he is using it to state his name), which is why it was tacked on to the end of his name in the manga. You'll find it the same with any other character. Considering that it is not part of his name, it should be removed. --Nisshoku 21:55, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
