So happy Iris is keeping her name. I really didn't think they'd change it, anyway.

But...Cilan? Er...I'm gonna keep my thoughts to myself on that one.

Aloe's married! How dare you!

lololo

But yeah, the complaints are silly right now
 
Re: English names for Iris and Dent revealed: Iris to keep her name while Dent's name

I really like Cilan. Wish it were pronounced Seye-lan, though, since I prefer that pronunciation over the cilan part in cilantro.

However, I will stay true to his original name since I only watch the dub to make fun of stuff, really.
 
Re: English names for Iris and Dent revealed: Iris to keep her name while Dent's name

Thank God Iris kept her japanese name. I did not want to get used to anything else.

As for Cilan, I think it is as good as Dent was.
 
Re: English names for Iris and Dent revealed: Iris to keep her name while Dent's name

Eh. I was expecting something a little more manlier for Dent. But I guess its good enough. As for Iris, glad she kept her name.
 
Re: English names for Iris and Dent revealed: Iris to keep her name while Dent's name

I am actually happy that the dub has actually kept Iris' original name.

So am I. I actually expected that Iris would keep her Japanese name, but 'Cilan' is a faggot name. Also, the series should've kept its original Japanese name of 'Best Wishes' because, even though the 'BW' acronym can still be used, 'Black & White' is too generic (as the title of the current anime series, not as the title of the current Generation V games).

Eh, I was pronouncing it as "Sy-Lawn". :x
Lol at people sticking with the Japanese names. You're gonna be watching the show when it comes out in English, right? Then might as well accept the new names. T_T

NEVER!!!!! I WILL NEVER ACCEPT THE FAGGOT ENGLISH NAMES!!!!!

I don't know why anyone would expect anything manly from Dent.

Derek would've been better to me, but maybe his name has some relation to his 2 brothers then?

Agreed.

I can see Cilan fitting in nicely with herb-themed naming. Probably the easiest thing to do, making the theme blatantly obvious.
 
Re: English names for Iris and Dent revealed: Iris to keep her name while Dent's name

Cilan matches his grass affinity. I'm sure the other two will sound similar but rightly match their respective elements.
 
Re: English names for Iris and Dent revealed: Iris to keep her name while Dent's name

I like the name Cilan. I'm glad the dub kept Iris' original name.

I think the name Cilan has to do with herbs or plants.
 
Re: English names for Iris and Dent revealed: Iris to keep her name while Dent's name

Yeah, I like this name.

It suits the character.

Thanks.
 
Re: English names for Iris and Dent revealed: Iris to keep her name while Dent's name

Well, it's not bad at all, although Cilant would have looked better, but that's me, since I was used to Dent(o). And good thing that Iris is keeping her name. Good news indeed!
 
Re: English names for Iris and Dent revealed: Iris to keep her name while Dent's name

I really like Cilan's name; unlike Dent, it actually sounds rather fancy, which suits a Sommelier.
 
Re: English names for Iris and Dent revealed: Iris to keep her name while Dent's name

I quite liked Iris, so I'm glad that stayed the same. Cilan seems rather interesting and unique: I don't like it right now, but I hope that it grows on me over time.
 
Re: English names for Iris and Dent revealed: Iris to keep her name while Dent's name

I just want to know, how do you pronounce Cilan? Is it Key-lan or Si-lan?
 
Re: English names for Iris and Dent revealed: Iris to keep her name while Dent's name

Cilan~ 8D Cilan, Cilan! It sounds so classy, so lovely! And seeing as I love how "cilantro", "Cilan" is a perfect name for Dent! Much fancier.

As for Iris, I was hoping she would get a name change, as "Iris" sounds boring next to "Cilan" now. D8 Ah, well. Makes me wonder what Shaga will be called. Will they call him 'iris' in another language?

Is a soft "c". D: Pronounced (or at least I pronounce it) as "sihl-ahhn". Like "sihl-ahhn-troh", minus the "troh".
 
Re: English names for Iris and Dent revealed: Iris to keep her name while Dent's name

Okay, thanks. Does sound fancy =3

I don't know. It just that Dent's personality made me think of a gentleman from the past. Suave, sophisticated, debonair. Guess I was wrong. *sighs*

That doesn't mean he's masculine though.
