	Log in to remove this sponsored message Pikachu has been over some of the English names already so I thought I'd share the ones that I found on the ACNL Blog. :3 Characters: JP: Shizue EN: Isabelle JP: Lisa EN: Reese JP: Kaizo EN: Cyrus Buildings: JP: Dream Mansion EN: Dream Suite JP: Nook’s Cranny EN: Nooklings Junction JP: Club 444 EN: Club 101 JP: R. Parkers EN: Re-Tail Other: JP: Idol K.K. EN: Bubblegum K.K. JP: Dream Code EN: Dream Address JP: Delicious Fruit EN: Perfect Fruit JP: Morning Town EN: Early Bird Town JP: Rich Town EN: Wealthy Town I actually don't mind the Characters names. I think they're quite nice. =o I perfer a lot of the Japanese names though. Dream adress and Early bird town sounds a bit odd to me. xD So what do yous think?

	I like their names now. The more I read it, the more I get used to it. I wish they would have picked a better name for Kaizo because now I'll just associate him with Pokemon :c but everything else is cool. I'm a bit iffy about "Dream Suite" though since it looks like a hut, instead of a suite lol (・ω・) -------------------

	I kinda like most of the Japanese names better tbh, but the English ones are still quite alright. :3 Nookling's Junction does sound a bit funny to me though. xD ------------------- Header and Footer Contest

	Sonic Rush Yup B( Bubblegum KK fits though. Especially when it's Claudia and the other brightly colored spotted bunny on the cover, and the song is super happy and cheerful. And you know darn well in school, when your friend offered you some gum, that was like the best day of your life lol (・ω・) -------------------

	Imo, all the Japanese names are better except for Dream Suite and Wealthy Town. I guess I'm just used to them. Wtf is Bubblegum K.K. though? <_> -------------------

	Hm apparently Reese is name after a fashion designer, Tracy Reese, who often uses alpaca wool for her designs. or something like that That seems to make sense to me, but then again, I don't really care about the name origin that much but it's interesting to know where it comes from. x3 Especially since I really like the name. :D ------------------- Pokémon X&Y \| PMD: Gates to Infinity \| Pokélounge

	Midnight I've been reading on tumblr and this other AC page about how much people hate Lisa's new name. :< I like it, and it stays true to her name, just not spelling wise. BUT at least we don't have the name the Italian game gave her! :D ALPACA THE ALPACA HURR DURR Tracy Reese! What? That makes no sense because Tracy Reese is a fashion designer... Lisa runs basically a goodwill/thrift store.. At least Gracie rhymes with Tracy lol (・ω・) -------------------

	What's the significance of Club 444? I don't get the reasoning behind the change.

	Tbh, I don't think either numbers have any real significance. I can't explain the change or even their purpose in general, even after a little digging. <_> If anyone's gonna unravel the mystery, it'll be Pikachu. xP -------------------

	fluidity I already did. A person It's because of the Mormon bible. It's believed to be the number of creation. 4 seasons, 4 routes on a compass, 4 corners of the earth in that bible, 4 divisions of day, etc etc. so nintendo is actually evading a shitstorm from the Mormon community by changing the name to 101. 101 is used in many places; literature; movies, shows, etc etc. it's a casual number and seen as casual. So it's easier to change to 101 than piss off an entire community over a number. Especially when you consider that club 444 is a joke club, any one will end up interpreting that they take their religion as a "joke" (・ω・) -------------------
