![Fire Emblem 12 Translation [HoS]](http://serenesforest.net/img/hos_logo.jpg){kind=logo}
In case you haven't noticed it yet, there's a new poll up here on the blog. We're testing opinions on the options for a renaming of this character (whose old name was a comic-book sound effect).
what was the original name

ReplyDeletein this page says belf but I will accept any game the rest want.
sorry any name not game
ReplyDeleteI say keep it Belf.
ReplyDeleteBrett or Brent maybe
ReplyDeleteRaiden, Robert and ... um cant you get something that starts with "R" too ?
ReplyDeletebetween Belves, Vergil and Bell not even I can pick something good
There is no character so important to be named like Raiden Or any fantasy sounding name, i say just keep it Belf
ReplyDeleteThe fandom usually uses "Belf" as his name. I think one of the trading cards also has "Belf" as canon.
ReplyDeleteBelf is a terrible name in context with all the other names. It actually seems like we are talking about WoW, with Blood Elves commonly referred to as Belfs.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I don't mind the name Vergil. Naturally I voted for it.
ReplyDeleteI went to the site that names him Belf and Google offered to translate it for me. When I did, it changed his name to Lip. O.o XD
ReplyDeleteI think the problem lies in the number of vocals his name has, Belf sure sounds weird, but we have had several fire emblem names worse than that. Maybe Beolf sounds better.
ReplyDeleteQuick brainstorming session:
ReplyDeleteBelth.
Beoulve.
Beowulf.
Belthasar.
Belfry.
Belfair.
Belfast.
These are all terrible.
I lol'd at Belfast and Beowulf.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget Barf and Burt
Serious: Vergil seems to be winning, by a lot. Funny, that's kind of what the team was hoping for. -__-
Considering the other 2 names are horrible, i had to vote for Vergil too, but i really don't care that much.
ReplyDeletekeep it belf and focus on the translation
ReplyDeleteand there is a chance that i can get 1 or 2 people to help you with the translation
ReplyDeleteyou mean Japanese-English translators?
ReplyDeleteIf they're experienced, older than 18 preferably (younger people tend to be less experienced and less mature... as well as have other non-desirable qualities...), and have plenty of free time, hit me up with an e-mail at smashfire17@gmail.com and we can talk more
well one is 22 but is in japan at the moment and i still got 2 ask and the other one 15 and i am waiting for a reply but those might not want to help.If they dont help ill make them help because fire emblem12 is my favourite ds game and it be easier to talk via facebook

there the link to my profile
and you should just leave the names and focus on the translation.
like first translate the menu and writing at the start before the menu then find how to translate the name so it does not appear as japanese on the ds menu.then focus on the prologue then the chapters after you have translated the main story do the archanean chroincles and then do the other stuff that i did not point out.It that other it will be easier
and yes i mean Japanese-English translators they are the only type of translaators i know
ReplyDeleteAhaha, I picked Vergil too, but wait that reminds me of something else...

I am now unconditionally afraid of this character.
In Japan the letter L is the same as R so you could call him berf
ReplyDeleteBelf is better
ReplyDeleteBoth are terrible.
ReplyDeleteIf Nintendo came up with the name Vergil, the fans would go "WHAT?!? THAT'S NOTHING LIKE BELF!? QUIT CHANGING NAMES FOR NO REASON, NINTENDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
ReplyDeleteI'm not saying it's a bad name, or that you're making the wrong decision. It's just funny to me, that's all.
BAH! Just give them the same names from the FE3 translation.
ReplyDeleteWell one of my peeves are when different Characters names start with the same letter. Only expection would probably be twins and I would prefer their names rhyme like Vouslain & Clain

I just saw his face[Page needed to be reloaded]
ReplyDeleteREUBIM, REYNOM, REMONE
RIVUNE, RIJUBE, RITUPE
RUETID, RUZABE, RUSEAM
Copy the Post above inorder to get a better look.
Vergil suits him because of the clothes, but the picture LadyTorix posted made me realize why. It also follows the "5 Characters after the first letter & No letter is the Same as AIDEN or OBERT"
ReplyDeleteSo Koodo's to Vergil.
The only thing that doesn't say Vergil is the Face, he looks Calm & Peaceful, a knight who fights with passion, and the type not to get blood splattered on his face.
ReplyDelete[Vergil, 5 Characters after R & No letter is the Same as AIDEN or OBERT] Reguil
ReplyDeletehow would Reguil be pronounced
ReplyDeleteblazer i dont use gmail
ReplyDeleteum, doesn't matter...
ReplyDeletehttp://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Belf
ReplyDeleteit was belf afterall lol
ReplyDeleteReguil would be pronounce as "Re, gull" or "Re gil" also I saw another name that matches Vergil it was Region, but it didn't follow the so I switched it to Regino. Which would of course be "Re Gino" also there is "Re Ni Go"
ReplyDeleteREGINO
ROBERT
RAIDEN
Oh wait Belf got Won...snap...aha I'm posting anyway
