As with this (where I also shared a comment), "Venus Fire Trap" is not a widely used name for this enemy within the games it is present. As far as I know, this name was used only in the SMB3 manual (I ignore if there is another source material that uses the name) but other than that, recent games, like Paper Mario: Sticker Star, and official strategy guides commonly use the name "Fire Pirahna". So in the way Podoboo got renamed to Lava Bubble because of similar issues, Venus Fire Trap should be renamed to Fire Piranha.

- Prince Ludwig (talk) I should say, that's not valid enough to rename this article. Even after Paper Mario: Sticker Star, they are still called Venus Fire Traps. If it moves, then Venus Ice Trap would have to move to Frost Piranha. When you say Podoboo renamed as Lava Bubble was an issue, it's like you include the Venus Fire Trap in the problem. It doesn't have to change simply because of it.

There is actually no verification from an offical source about the name "Venus Ice Trap" being official name either, and given the fact the name Venus Fire Trap is not use in modern-day materials, gives me the impression "Venus Ice Trap" is actually a conjeture name, something the article isn't actually verificating in case it is official. About Frost Piranha, well, there has been a long history of similar enemies with different names and from different games, like Tanoombas and Tail Goombas. Nobody say they were the same, though. Besides, given what I pointed, there's apparently no official name out there for the so-called "Venus Ice Trap" so a distinctive can be used instead. In such case, Ice Piranha (do not confuse it with the Japanese for Frost Piranha "Ice Piranha Plant") would be the fittest name.
