Brickipedia:Proposed Name Changes/Medusa to Gorgon

From Brickipedia, the LEGO Wiki
Move Medusa to Gorgon


The source for the names is very questionable (I'm not even sure why it is even a valid source, seems like a fansite to me) but Gorgon is a more open name than Medusa, which is only a character.

Wait until it's confirmed by LEGO. User:Jedi master sith/sig 00:30, December 11, 2012 (UTC)
  • Medusa isn't confirmed by LEGO. That logic really irks me. -__- Berrybrick 00:36, December 11, 2012 (UTC)
    • Yes but it's a rumored and/or pre-liminary name, Medusa is what she is known by the most and because of so I doubt LEGO will use a lesser known name aka Gorgon. User:Jedi master sith/sig 00:42, December 11, 2012 (UTC)
      • Rumored and/or preliminary? Because those are always right. >_> That is not at all what confirmation means. I actually doubt that LEGO would use the name Medusa, since that is a character's name. Why did they call "Red Riding Hood" Grandma visitor? (The only minifigure who actually has a name is Santa, and what else would they call him, Jolly Prowler?) Berrybrick 00:47, December 11, 2012 (UTC)
        • I did not say it was the right name, nor do I think rumored name's are true, but it should stay as it is, take for example Mr. Good and Evil, his rumored name was Dr. Splitz and it was kept that way until the web site was up. And for all I care her real name could be "Snake-woman" or something and in reality no one know's the real name's of any of them. "Wait and see."

          • There was actually a Medusa enemy in LEGO Universe, if that affects anything. Jamesster.LEGO (talk) 00:58, 12/11/2012
          • That is exactly why the vote was slashed. Where did this name came from? Somebody made it up to describe the figure, and it wasn't LEGO. I know I can't convince you, since you are stubborn and have awful logical reasoning, but did they wait and see? Heck, with your logic, why don't we rename every figure "TBA Series 10 Minifigure 1-16"? (Don't say that is stupid, that is your reasoning). (Oh, and do you know what conjecture means? That word that we post on every article like this?) (Oh, and the way I see it, not really.) Berrybrick 01:00, December 11, 2012 (UTC)
            • Dude...chill out, I was just saying it should not be changed to Gorgon. Stick to the pre-liminary/rumored name like we always do until we get the "real" name. User:Jedi master sith/sig 01:07, December 11, 2012 (UTC)
I agree with Berrybrick, it's like calling the Elf from Series 3 Legolas. --User:CzechMate/czech 01:19, January 14, 2013 (UTC)
