When I saw this page, I noticed that instead of basic references to other media, it appears to be a list of names that have meanings.

Some do serve as Shout Outs, like references to mythology and literary works. And then there are entries like these:

  • Their son, Leif, is a Scandinavian name, which means 'heir,' and is famously given by Leif Ericson.
  • Salem is a Jewish name meaning "peaceful." Ironically as a former member of a cult, it can also be named after the town Salem, infamous for the witch trials taking place.
  • Valter's name is derived from the Old Germanic word "wald" (rule) and "heri" (army, warrior).
  • Crimea is named after a region in Ukraine.
  • Takumi means "skillful" or "artisan" in Japanese.

My suggestion is to move this page to MeaningfulName.Fire Emblem, as it fits better there. There are entries for the franchise in Meaningful Name already, so they could be migrated there after the move.

Those would be misuse on Meaningful Name though. They don't say how the meaning has anything to do with the character. Just because a name has a meaning somewhere doesn't mean it's a Meaningful Name.

Just delete them.

Deed is done, so I left a hidden comment, and will close.
