Romanization
According to Template:Media link, ハナチャン appears to be officially romanized with a hyphen, as Hana-chan. I don't think this is to split the word across lines, as in the full deck, other names such as Nokonoko are split without a hyphen. This would make the proper article name "Kyodai Hana-chan", right?

- There are other cases where it's not hyphenated, so a deck of cards isn't worth changing it over. LinkTheLefty (talk) 18:22, July 28, 2019 (EDT)
Should just be changed to "Giant Wiggler"
I mean, it's Japanese name literally means Giant Wiggler. We had cases with Super Mario Land enemies like Piranha Plant having "Pakkun Flower" literally meaning the former. So why this? CastleResearch (talk) 15:05, December 1, 2019 (EST)
- Because we do not fan translate under any circumstance. Additionally, Nintendo seems to like to translate "Kyodai" to simply "Big," judging by Big Island and Boss Bass. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 15:06, December 1, 2019 (EST)
