The name in the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5O4KZw-lhkE&t=3m25s Japanese version] is plain Manta. However, this doesn't indicate which manta was intended, as the manta from ''Super Mario Sunshine'' shares the same name as the manta from ''Super Mario 64'' (note that the score there also mentions several enemies from both games as well as at least one that appeared in neither). It's possible that the localizer only presumed it was meant to be the one from ''Super Mario Sunshine'' or just made up a name on the spot (for example, Toadsworth became Toadster, likely by coincidence). In that case, the question is if an indirect mention like this counts in naming the article.

:I'd say as long as the translation was done in-house, it should count.

::Yeah, this should count as an official name imo. {{User:Niiue/sig}} 01:44, May 17, 2019 (EDT) | |||
