[edit] Olivia "Milla" Armstrong?

Is this the best romanization of her name? It seems more likely that her name is "Miller" and not "Milla," since Miller is a common English name and I don't I've ever heard the name Milla. In Japanese, Miller would be prounounced "Milla," so pronunciation-wise, it's the most accurate, but like the other characters, she has a European name. (We romanize Ed's name as "Edward" and not "Eduwaldu," for exmaple xD; ) Since there is no official translation (to my knowledge?) of Olivia's name, "Olivia Miller Armstrong" is my best guess.Coco la Nut (talk) 22:10, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Plausible, but OR. If there is no clear romanization, then it should be left out altogether. Rau's talk 23:34, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I don't know about "Milla", but "Olivier" is male name, let's change it. http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Olivier 71.161.61.17 (talk) 01:59, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Merge

  • Oppose The list article proposed to hold the characters is already at 58 kbs, and this page like its anime counterpart is stable. They may need some trimming, but I don;t think they need merging. TomStar81 (Talk) 18:14, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Actually, they first need trimming, then merging. However, all of the merge discussions should take place at Talk:List of Fullmetal Alchemist characters, so I've copied this over there. -- Collectonian (talk ยท contribs) 18:20, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
