== Names ==

It's not obvious to me that "daisy" and "giant plant" should be listed as alternate names. While they obviously refer to Carnivora, they are used in a descriptive manner (yes, Carnivora ''is'' a daisy and a giant plant) but do not necessarily imply that they are the creature's name. In fact, "daisy" is just a species name and "giant plant" an even broader categorization. It's a bit like saying that Globox's alternate name is Frog because he is at some point referred to as a frog. What do you guys think? —[[File:RRRGBAIcon8.png|class=sprite|link=User:Hunchman801]][[File:RRRGBAIcon0.gif|class=sprite|link=User:Hunchman801]][[File:RRRGBAIcon1.png|class=sprite|link=User:Hunchman801]] 11:20, 1 March 2025 (UTC)
