:The main reason that these names were put here is because other characters use this same criteria for their names (though they are mostly less ambiguous); for example, the Mocking Bird’s name is taken from its [[To Bubblize a Mocking Bird|boss level]], and the Boss Bird’s name was taken from a Jungle Run wallpaper (which isn’t the best place to get names from, since it turns out that Carnivora was actually called the Boss Plant in its wallpaper, which is about as generic as they come). Granted, they don’t have any other sources for their names, aside from the game files, so it’s passable for them. Anyway, I’m fine with the “alternate names” being removed, but maybe the “Boss Plant” part could go in the Jungle Run section as a “where it is referred to as…” mention? -RayGamer99

::You make a good point, and indeed, I wouldn't really consider that "Mocking Bird" is an official name for the character, but rather an inferred name based on the little official material we have. If that boss did have a more official name such as something explicitly referring to it in an image gallery, we probably wouldn't even be listing that name, but that's all we have at this point. As for Carnivora, I agree that "Boss Plant" should be listed, since it explicitly refers to it in the gallery. —[[File:RRRGBAIcon8.png|class=sprite|link=User:Hunchman801]][[File:RRRGBAIcon0.gif|class=sprite|link=User:Hunchman801]][[File:RRRGBAIcon1.png|class=sprite|link=User:Hunchman801]] 12:47, 2 March 2025 (UTC)
