The current name is what the full name is expected to be, however there are no points in either game where it is actually used, not even in tattles. Every point in both games refers to them as "B. Bill Blaster" (even though Goombella says "sorry about the abbriviation"), and according to the section above, even the prima games guide uses "B. Bill Blaster". | |||

Is the name "Bombshell Bill Blaster" ever actually used, and not just implied? Not only do the games shorten it to "B. Bill Blaster" in battle, but the Tattles use the abbreviated form as well, unlike with enemies like Dark Koopatrol or Green Magikoopa. Niiue - Who has lost his tail? 18:08, March 15, 2020 (EDT)
- I don't recall the full term being used. Some other games have used abbreviations, like the M. M-Spike Top. I'm not sure what to do with this name. Scrooge200 (talk)

- Personally, I'd argue for keeping it as-is, because the game makes it pretty clear that "B. Bill Blaster" is short for "Bombshell Bill Blaster", even if the latter term isn't explicitly used. Niiue - Who has lost his tail? 18:44, March 15, 2020 (EDT)
