Totakeke
If "Totaka's Song" is conjectural is it?, then wouldn't "K.K. Song" from the Animal Crossing games be an official name? Considering K.K. is sort of an avatar for Totaka K. LinkTheLefty (talk) 19:15, April 22, 2024 (EDT)
- Makes sense to me. Especially since the name "K.K." is also used in Link's Awakening (K.K. Sniper). Blinker (talk) 11:55, April 23, 2024 (EDT)
- No, because that name only appears in the Animal Crossing series, not in the Mario series, so you can change the name in other wikis, but not in this one.

- Don't see why the source for the name of a non-series-based song should matter. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 19:08, April 29, 2024 (EDT)
- Yeah, plus Animal Crossing: New Horizons IS newer than Luigi's Mansion 3DS. SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) 10:44, May 15, 2024 (EDT)
- This is a really rare case of taking official titles of songs from another Nintendo franchise for a title of a song article on the Super Mario Wiki. Have we ran into similar situations before? --EleCyon (talk) 22:52, July 4, 2024 (EDT)
- Not sure about music, but there have been unnamed cameos, such as Joe and Mac, that get titles elsewhere. LinkTheLefty (talk) 04:02, July 7, 2024 (EDT)
- Hmm...I kind of agree about this, but we're a Super Mario wiki, not an Animal Crossing wiki. Should we be taking cues from other franchises? --

- No, K.K. Song is not the name of this jingle because this jingle originated before Animal Crossing; the song itself is a reference to this jingle, not the other way around. Personally, I'd rename this to "Totaka's Jingle" rather than a song but search results for this jingle are consistently called "Totaka's Song" so I think this title is the best choice for this article even if it is technically conjecture.

- I agree. -- FanOfRosalina2007 (talk · edits) 18:06, July 30, 2024 (EDT)
- What about the name "Totakeke's theme", from the unused Melody Pianissima question? Blinker (talk) 06:22, October 7, 2024 (EDT)
- I agree. --

What is the point of this conversation in mario paint it’s called Totaka's Song And in animal crossing it’s called K.K.s song it’s really that easy Waluigiboys
Finding out right now give me a few months Waluigiboys
You know, all this makes me wonder where the name "Totaka's song" even came from. If it was pure conjecture, who found out it was specifically written by Totaka and coined the term for it? (Honestly, Nintendo Music is a godsend for things like this, at least whenever the Mario Paint soundtrack comes out on the app and if it will include Totaka's Song as a separate track).
Alternatively, I guess we could call it "Totakeke" based on this Link's Awakening easter egg, for the time being.
