ミストレイク

The comments suggest that they are talking about Misty Lake. Should the title be Misty Lake, then? Code Slasher (talk) 20:10, 26 May 2013 (UTC)

I'm kind of split on what to do with it myself. I don't think there's any doubt that the music title is supposed to refer to what we now call the Misty Lake. I'm inclined to believe that "Mist Lake" is how ZUN would translate 霧の湖 (kiri no mizuumi). Making this problematic is that it was impossible to predict this ten years ago.
Therefore, I think we have two choices, maybe three. We could call this title "Misty Lake", or we could change our "Misty Lake" to "Mist Lake". The third is to just leave them separate. I'm inclined to at least favour translating ミスト to Misty, even though it's not one-to-one. If following ZUN's rendering is of greater importance, then I think our lake may have to change names. - Kiefmaster99 (talk) 20:21, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
It might be interesting to note that in Pokemon, カスミ is Misty. Code Slasher (talk) 01:28, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
カスミ just means "mist" on its own. "Mist" isn't a name; "Misty" is. La bruja pícaro (talk) 01:48, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
