: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.

Totakeke[edit]

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.

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.
