:To be frank, why don't we use "Octohorn" instead? [[MarioWiki:Japanese#Subjects with Japanese names|Subjects with Japanese names]]: "''...for article titles, words that originated in English should be written as the original English word for simplicity (or, if the word comes from another Roman script language such as German, it should be written in the original German, etc.). The only exception to this is if a word is part of a compound, '''as partially translating the word would look awkward.'''''" That's not really the case here since it's a compound of two English-originating words. This looks like it was meant to be addressing usual times when it's composed of one or more Japanese-originating words.
