* In an interesting case involving ''two'' famous names, but with one diacritic making a world of difference. The original translation of ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaSymphonyOfTheNight'' had a sword called [[KillItWithIce the Icebrand]], the Ice-elemental member of a trio of [[ElementalWeapon similar swords]] called [[FireIceLightning the Firebrand and the Thunderbrand]]. All of them were said to be crafted or used originally by mighty mythical beings: Thunderbrand was the sword of [[Myth/HinduMythology the Hindu deity, Indra]] [[note]]appropriately, the sword was originally called ''Vjaya,'' a corruption of ''vajra'', [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vajra the thunderbolt]][[/note]] while the Firebrand was the sword of [[Theatre/AMidSummerNightsDream Oberon, King of the Fairies]], putting a creative twist on an old English folkloric tradition.[[note]]Oddly, the Firebrand would appear in other ''Castlevania'' games as "Agni's Flame," which references ''another'' Hindu god.[[/note]] But the Icebrand, according to the flavor text, was the sword of Mim -- which players took at the time to be a reference to the sorceress from Disney's ''WesternAnimation/TheSwordInTheStone''. To some this may have been a little obtuse, but given that ''Symphony of the Night,'' especially, and the franchise more generally, is a swirl of [[FantasyKitchenSink seemingly endless allusions to mythology, folklore, and fiction]], and given that Mim was indeed presented as a mighty magic-user in her own right, it fit right in. The thing was, the "Mim" being referenced was not ''Mim'' but rather ''Mîm'' -- note the accent over the ''i'' -- a [[https://tolkiengateway.net/wiki/M%C3%AEm somewhat obscure character]] from Franchise/TolkiensLegendarium. ''This'' actually stands to reason, as the same English translation that originally appeared in North America had a highly peculiar number of incongruous references to Tolkien's works. But because the in-game text could not process special characters (like ''î''), for years many fans were led to believe the Icebrand was, indeed, supposed to have been once wielded, or at least crafted, by a half-forgotten Disney character whose existence was ''somehow'' canon in the ''Castlevania'' universe.
