So you're saying her given name is a transliteration and not the kana it's written in? Because her given name is リリィ. Not Lily/Lilie. Those are just transliterations/translations of her given name. The thing about Japanese is that they don't know the full depth of the variety of the English language. That's names that could go -ie are commonly spelled with a -y when transcribed to English. I didn't change her name. I used an alternative spelling to the translation of her name which is not her name. If we actually look at it then her name is "Riri", but because that doesn't make a lot of sense on both ends, it's commonly read as "Lily". See what I'm saying? What I think is that this spelling of her name is more fitting and I have more than enough criteria to back up that claim.

I do this off of facts and research. Not a whim like many of you insist. And if you all can't accept that then that's not my problem. I have more important things to worry about than the complaints of people who refuse to read what has been written. I refuse to waste my breath in entertaining attitudes like this. The name is the kana. The English is how we read that kana and that is different from the name itself.
