| Is her English conceptual name actually "Walpeach?" I thought it was "Wapeach." It would at least make more sense, because Wario and Waluigi's names are derived from the Japanese word 'warui,' which literally means 'bad.' Not sure if it was a typo on the editor's part or if this is the actual name. {{unsigned|OmegaRuby}} | | Is her English conceptual name actually "Walpeach?" I thought it was "Wapeach."

| ::Fumihilde indeed consistently spelled it, with Latin characters, as "Walpeach," even in response to people saying "Wapeach." "Wapeach" is more widespread thanks to busybody journalists, YouTubers, and fanartists who can't be bothered to do their homework (despite my best nerdy ''erm, acshually'' efforts at correcting them), but that spelling is wrong, plain and simply <s>and needs to be quashed out before I lose whatever loose equivalent to sanity I have left</s>. <small>It comes off as highly disrespectful to the work that went into designing her to ignore something as simple as her ''name''.</small> [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 10:43, January 8, 2024 (EST)

| ::: Thanks. I'll go ahead and fix the instance of Wapeach I found on [[Waluigi]]'s article. --[[User:OmegaRuby|JoeCool]] ([[User talk:OmegaRuby|talk]]) 11:48, January 9, 2024 (EST)

| Also, as far as the warui origin goes -- L and R don't have direct equivalents in Japanese, so "warui" or "walui" are technically both semi-accurate translations (which is why Waluigi is named the way he is -- it literally has the word "warui" in it). That would be where the L comes from. [[Special:Contributions/73.171.104.211|73.171.104.211]] 11:01, January 8, 2024 (EST)
