== Name Changes ==

Kinjyou (volume 6/volume 7) should be changed to Kinjo, which is the way it's spelled in volume 7's character page.

Re Gan ... it's spelled as one word in English on v7's character page, but it's still written in kanji with a dot between "Re" and "Gan". Re Gan's predecessor has "Gan" in his name as well, so I don't know if they are relatives or if "Gan" is a name that is passed down among holders of the Sage of Mirror Lake title.

Anything with Kazu (I've seen Kazu and Kazuyan so far) should be Kazuhiko.

Raynesia should be changed to Rayneshia. Her grandfather's name was spelled Serjiad in the anime BD.

The light novels have Rudy's name to be Rundelhous. To date, though, I've seen four "official" spellings (LN, CR subs, episode 20, BD4) for his name. I'm not sure which one B-T uses, though.

Demikas is spelled Demiqas or Demiquas. The last two/three letters are cut off, but it's definitely something with a Q rather than a K. I wouldn't change it, though, until there's more information on how it should be spelled--[[Special:Contributions/74.89.132.250|74.89.132.250]] 16:24, 18 July 2014 (CDT)

Lessee....

First, I dunno without Japanese raws how Kazuhiko is being addressed, but the alternatives you've seen seem more like how other people are choosing to address him. "Kazu" for short, "Kazu-yan" for the Osaka-ben speakers, and if so, I don't see why those should be changed.

Second, where'd you get the Rayneshia and Serjiad spellings? With a very few exceptions, English characters just aren't used in the show.

Third, I question CR and BD subs, because they're just...wrong at times. "Scales" Festival. The "Apocalypse." And inconsistent. On the reused maps, its "Freedom Cities Eastal," while on the flags and signet rings, it's "Freedom Towns Eastal."

Where'd you get Demikas' name spelling?

:>Kazuhiko
:I doubt that they would use a nickname in the context of the sentence, where it's not a character speaking and is instead reflecting Kazuhiko's thoughts (the first chapter of the vol7 web novel). I don't think Shiroe speaks in Osaka-ben, either, it might just be from translating from a fan translation.

:Rayneshia's, from the character intro after the Table of Contents in volume 6. It was (somehow) determined that there was actually an H before the I, and then that was reinforced in the BDs. Serjiad's was in the BD (I don't think Crunchyroll has anything to do with the BDs, though), no light novel English spelling has been given. I'd also take the BDs with a grain of salt, they use two different spellings for 'Rundelhous' in the character profile and character cards.

:Demikas' was also from volume 7's [https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BrLdfr6CUAA8bct.jpg:large character intro page]. Kinjo and Re Gan/Regan are on the opposite page (just google 供贄の黄金 and search under images, since it won't let me link directly to the picture). --[[Special:Contributions/74.89.132.250|74.89.132.250]] 19:04, 18 July 2014 (CDT)

::[http://i.imgur.com/KVIDPMd.jpg First character intro page], [http://i.imgur.com/hjjxW24.jpg Second character intro page] in volume 7. I have some of the other scans from the volume in high quality, but I don't know the order nor do I have a set of complete scans for vol7. --[[Special:Contributions/74.89.132.250|74.89.132.250]] 09:49, 21 July 2014 (CDT)

Changed Demikas to Demiqas and Re~Gun to ReGan, as a way of making it one word, while also acknowledging Re and Gan had a dot in between without actually putting a dot in between.[[User:Rasen|Rasen]] ([[User talk:Rasen|talk]]) 15:33, 27 July 2014 (CDT)

Is Kinjyou/Kinjo staying as Kinjyou or is it being changed to Kinjo?

Made the change from Kinjyou to Kinjo in volume 6. Not touching the webnovel chapters, because I'm saving my energy for the LN. Also, still hoping to get my grubby hands on a JP volume 7 to bring the formatting, terminology, honorifics, etc. back. [[User:Rasen|Rasen]] ([[User talk:Rasen|talk]]) 23:37, 27 July 2014 (CDT)
