Talk:Misha

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Only the coolest girl in the world, ever. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.221.0.178 (talk • contribs)

Misha is not a girl, if that´s what you mean. However, Misha is the best olympic mascot ever. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.24.216.10 (talk • contribs)

I used to read the magazine when I was a kid - any links to their publication house? I wonder if they are still in business. The last issue I saw of Misha magazine was in 1987. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.161.74.241 (talk • contribs)

For me, the section "Origines of the name Misha" has nothing to do with the subject of the article. I think, it should be deleted or moved somewhere else--83.237.108.148 05:21, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

The article starts: "Misha (Миша) is the name of the Russian Bear and the Iranian goat, ..." I don't understand what "the Iranian goat" (?) has to do with it 193.164.229.102 12:47, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

A few things:
1. "Михаил Потапыч Топтыгин in full" - wrong. Михаил Потапыч Топтыгин is a typicall name of a Russian fairy tale bear. However the olympic mascot bear does not have a full name.
2. It is necessary to explain to English speakers that Misha is a male name in Russian.
3. The mascot is widely known and refered to as Mishka or "the Olympic Mishka", not just "Misha". If no one replies to this in a month I'll edit the article. Might want as well to rename it to "Oympic Mishka"
