There are English screenshots of his name- it's Will.

I guess that solves the "Lanna to Lily" mystery then. Maybe. But I agree, Lily doesn't suit her much. We'll all probably get used to it, but for now I am unimpressed.

XD

I never particularly associated Lily as just a cutesy name, really- lilies are elegant flowers so I could see it for her.

Susan's a plain jane farmer type name, and Suiren was too exotic sounding to fly, really... I dunno, other than the « What The Eggplant » factor on the Lanna thing it seems like a sound name choice. I do get the issue with being used to the Japanese name though- I'm alternately gushing about Animal March and Animal Parade, sometimes both in the same sentence. XD

But in a way that's what I was expecting. :D But I don't like the way they took Lily's name and recycled it, not really the fact that that it doesn't suit her. I'm okay with the name, sort of prefer it, but I want to call "Lanna" Lily, since that's her original name. But we'll all get used to it, at some point. I thought that she would be more likely named after a jewel due to her obsession (not really) with jewelry and riches. Maybe Sapphire?

I could see naming her after a gemstone. It's pretty interesting that they actually seemed to consider her name meaning when choosing her new name though, too.

It doesn't sound oriental at all. It should be ReeRee or something. (Ree is good too)

Racist pun not intended LOL

That's hecka funny! Oh you swines and your whining. SUCK IT UP. D=

That's devistatingly ironically funny. I never would have cared about the name change, but this is actually better because the irony makes it funny.

I don't even know what to say without getting to upset at you lot whining about it. Oh, Lily. It sounds rather fitting.

Would you like a sandwich with that beer? =p

So the Lily -> Lanna mystery reveals itself. =o I personally like the name Lily, because I'm already used to calling the other Lily Lanna.
...
« What The Eggplant » I just confused myself there.

Lily is a hawt name for a hawt lady. :D

I always hate that too. I wanted to name my newest Chelsea file Winona, but one of the stupid subvillagers has that name and it grates on me to have the same name.

If only whenever you pick the same name as somone else they use an alternate name :)
