Von[edit]

I know that "von" is technically proper, but although the game text is inconsistent, Magnus Von Grapple is more common and is the variant used for its cameo in Super Paper Mario. Shouldn't the more common and recent spelling be the name of the article? LinkTheLefty (talk) 20:30, 18 July 2018 (EDT)

The SPM thing was probably a fluke, and in reference to an action figure anyways, being just a cameo. As for the target name, it seems that every word is capitalized, iirc even for things like "Left Tentacle" where the nouns shouldn't be proper anyway, while the tattle log descriptions are based off of those.

The thing is that the instances of Von aren't limited to the battle system. I'm curious to know which one is used by the strategy guide. LinkTheLefty (talk) 21:38, 18 July 2018 (EDT)
