This wiki seems to be inconsistent on how we name Her Royal Highness. In most articles related Mario Kart 7, she's called Honey Queen, yet the name of the article itself is Queen Bee, along with Super Mario Galaxy-related stuff calling her that. We need to settle on something. | |||

#{{User|MeritC}} You're forgetting that via another existing main proposal, I believe, we're supposed to use the '''first''' English name revealed for characters for the most part unless there's a valid reason. In this case, since the name "Queen Bee" was revealed first since ''Super Mario Galaxy'', I place in my vote that this article's name stays this way. Plus, the name "Honey Queen" is already used as a redirect to this article, anyway. | #{{User|MeritC}} You're forgetting that via another existing main proposal, I believe, we're supposed to use the '''first''' English name revealed for characters for the most part unless there's a valid reason.

#{{User|Propeller Toad}} Essentially per MeritC. In my own opinion, I believe that the name her article should go under is the one that she was originally given. Her name change in Mario Kart 7 is not too significant to make the change, and unless future games continue calling her by her future name we should continue using her original name. | #{{User|Propeller Toad}} Essentially per MeritC.

#{{User|DKPetey99}} A few characters go by aliases, so we should keep this. And if Nintendo stated her as Queen Bee '''and''' Honey Queen, but Honey Queen recently, that's her name. | #{{User|DKPetey99}} A few characters go by aliases, so we should keep this.

:::I believe one of the bees says something like "All new bees are required to visit the Queen Bee" or something like that. {{User:Bop1996/sig}} | :::I believe one of the bees says something like "All new bees are required to visit the Queen Bee" or something like that. {{User:Bop1996/sig}} | ||
::::The exact quote is, "New Bees must greet Her Highness, Queen Bee!" with Queen Bee in red text.

@MeritC Is Princess Peach called Princess Toadstool and is Bowser called King Koopa. I would say Queen Bee because Honey Queen was only a Spin-Off name. If she appears in another Mainstream game of appears in more Spin-offs under that name, it should be changed. {{User|New Super Yoshi}} | @MeritC Is Princess Peach called Princess Toadstool and is Bowser called King Koopa.

If she is called in the next game Queen Bee, we should keep the name. But we don't know the future. We don't know how she will be called in the next game or if she will appear again at all. Here on MarioWiki, we need to put information that is correct at this moment, those are the rules. Honey Queen is her current and correct English name, so we must move it, because those are the rules. The name Honey Queen is already officially acknowledged by Nintendo, because they used it and in one of their best selling game series too. And if it does turn out that her name is Queen Bee in the next game, we simply move it back. It is just one simple click on the move button. I am amazed this is such a huge deal. On MarioWiki, we have moved more article names to lesser used, but more recent names. This article may not be an exception. UPDATE: After a bit of research I found out she was never called Queen Bee in Super Mario Galaxy 2. She was always called ''Our Queen''. {{User|Arend}} | If she is called in the next game Queen Bee, we should keep the name. But we don't know the future.
