User blog:Genda Koujirou/Fei Rune / Fay Lune / Fey Lune?

It was brought to my attention that a more correct transliteration for Fei's name would be Fey Lune or Fay Lune.

If you can read Japanese, the Pixiv Encyclopedia page about him has got a good explanation.

In short, フェイ might be an abbreviation for the English word fairy, while フェイ stands for Lune, the French word for moon. If you are familiar with Japanese culture, you probably thought about the rabbit-on-the-moon belief they have, and the character's name seems based on that.

While Lune isn't up for much discussion, Fei/Fey/Fay is a bit more vague and I'd appreciate the community's input on it. Which version of the name do you think we should use on the wiki?

For minor characters we usually settle for a direct Katakana to Romaji transliteration (it makes easier to look up scout characters), but for main ones we generally try to figure out what the series writers were trying to convey (ex: all IE3 character names; we use Fideo Ardena and Edgar Valtinas, most certainly not Fidio Arudena or Edogaa Baruchinasu), so I'd appreciate if you took time to vote on the poll down here and, if you have anything to add, leave a comment.

Which one? Fei Fey Fay

Thanks to NingyoHimeDoll from the wiki and to my friend Onkei (who's also part of the Ryuu Rogue team) for their input.
