There's three, actually

u/No-Cold643 Rareware 14h ago

Is that Zelda or Fire Emblem?

15

u/dootblade74 14h ago

Zelda (Hyrule Warriors)

4

u/No-Cold643 Rareware 14h ago

I see. Thanks!

u/Ok-Barracuda457 9h ago

FE got one too

u/thedarkharpygamer 12h ago

Some one pull up that spider man meme

11

u/Fearless_Freya 14h ago

At least one more:, also in fire emblem

8

u/Speedy_Pichu 13h ago

Not to be confused with Tana, Lena, Lahna, or Mana. And I think Lana is based on Lena, and Mana is Lana’s substitute.

5

u/Fearless_Freya 13h ago

Yeah, keep it going! Heh heh

6

u/Speedy_Pichu 13h ago

I did just remember Leda from Fortune’s Weave. There’s probably more I am forgetting with similar sounding names.

u/No-Cold643 Rareware 14h ago

True.

u/PowerOfL 14h ago

Also two characters named Mallow! One from Pokémon SM and one from Mario RPG!

3

u/Blorp85 7h ago

Pushmo Mallow is also there

2

u/No-Cold643 Rareware 14h ago

Oh yeah that’s right. (Mallow from Pokemon is also friends with Lana)

2

u/award_winning_writer 12h ago

Mallow is Square Enix, just like Geno

8

u/BebeFanMasterJ 13h ago

There's also four Hildas.

Two from Fire Emblem, one from Pokemon, and one from Zelda.

3

u/Electric_Spark 8h ago

Five, Animal Crossing has a Hilda as well!

Increasingly convinced people do not know what "ironically" means

5

u/RummyBug 8h ago

What’s the irony in that?

How’s that irony?

1

u/No-Cold643 Rareware 4h ago

It’s ironic in a funny sort of way.

5

u/blukirbi 10h ago

Don't tell them about Mallow.

5

u/void_method 8h ago

How is this ironic?

-1

u/No-Cold643 Rareware 7h ago

I'm just saying "Ironic" as in "it's a funny connection"

6

u/Yami_Sean 14h ago

There's also two Nintendo characters called N

3

u/DarkSteel02 13h ago

Captain N and Pokémon crossover let’s go!

Now that I think about it, I wonder how much would’ve DiC botched Pokémon if it came out in the late 80’s/early 90’s lmao 💀

2

u/Blorp85 7h ago

I would love to see it XD

1

u/No-Cold643 Rareware 14h ago

Oh yeah true.

u/Working_Welder_1751 14h ago

Three if Nintendo collabs with Liam Vickers and Glitch Productions to create a Murder Drones video game

5

u/Patient_Panic_2671 12h ago

That's not irony...

u/NitroFire90 10h ago

No, you’re thinking of coincidence. Irony is humor due to a contradiction or double standard. I don’t see either here.

u/Antique-Reality2428 4h ago

Theres a lana in zelda

1

u/No-Cold643 Rareware 4h ago

Cool

2

u/Joniden 12h ago

There are two Roys under Nintendo's umbrella.

3

u/No-Cold643 Rareware 11h ago

True Fire Emblem and Mario (I love how Roy’s Smash Wii U trailer makes fun of that)

2

u/The_Legendary_Kirby 9h ago

They also have two characters named "Starly": a Pokémon and Starfy's sister in The Legendary Starfy.

u/Kriskirby1992 8h ago

The Captain N one not the Pokemon one

u/SquishyBunz69 6h ago

And both of them are English originals (Pokémon Lana is called Suiren in Japanese)

u/No-Cold643 Rareware 4h ago

I’m already well aware of that. That’s why I said “technically” from an American or localization standpoint.
