What is the source of this name? - Cobold (talk · contribs) 16:43, 6 November 2007 (EST)
- There is no source, and she certainly doesn't seem to be enough of a major character to have her own page. BTW, is there any actual evidence that she's female? - Kahran042 14:47, 8 March 2011 (EST)

I'll look into this tomorrow (well, technically, later today) and see if I can verify it.I didn't feel like waiting. I just played on the board for a bit, and unless the Wiggler is named in the physical game manual, this Wiggler doesn't have a name (it just says "hootenanny" two or three times in its dialogue, and it's not listed under the "Characters" section of the Operations Guide).

I found the official name from the Japanese Wikipedia article: ハナチャン which is Wiggler's Japanese name. The gender is left ambiguous though, but we can infer that it's just a regular Wiggler.--Tailikku1 (talk) 18:59, 8 September 2014 (EDT)
- But how is this evidence that the name is ハナチャン? Where did Wikipedia get that information? Anyhow, with the conversation revived somewhat, I kind of think this should just be merged with the Wiggler article. Do other unnamed "enemy" NPCs from Mario Party get their own article? Mario-HOHO!

Rename
Wouldn't it better to rename the article to something like "Milk Shop owner"? After all, just because she says Hootenanny doesn't mean it's her name.
