	Well, that character can play that instrument in tune, too. I DO think Wotsaruto translates to Wozart. And Birdo originally was a boy but she's now a girl.

	:We still can't be certain of Wotsaruto's gender though. The best thing to do other than maybe looking into the Japanese text would be to contact whoever designed the characters from Densetsu no Starfy. --[[User:Torchickens\|Torchickens]] 18:51, 6 June 2012 (CDT)		:We still can't be certain of Wotsaruto's gender though.

	:'Wozart' might make sense given how Mozart is called Motsaruto (モーツァルト) but I feel that we might be best off using the Hepburn romanization because it might add confusion if the name is pronounced 'war-zart'. It won't show a clear way for English speakers to pronounce the name but this way we can avoid error. If Nintendo/TOSE registered a trademark for the official romaji for Wotsaruto like what happened with [[Mattel]] there's the possibility it could be more like 'Worzart'. --[[User:Torchickens\|Torchickens]] 09:19, 6 June 2012 (CDT)		:'Wozart' might make sense given how Mozart is called Motsaruto (モーツァルト) but I feel that we might be best off using the Hepburn romanization because it might add confusion if the name is pronounced 'war-zart'.

	:I feel there's the possibility Wotsaruto is a character that wants to be like Mozart, given he/she plays Tone of Ocean badly. That opens the possibility of Wotsaruto being of either gender. I agree with {{user\|Star_Light}} that there are other gender-confusing characters. In [[mariowiki:Super Mario Bros. 2\|Super Mario Bros. 2]] although Birdo is voiced like a girl and wears a red ribbon it was stated in the manual Birdo is a boy who wanted to be a girl. --[[User:Torchickens\|Torchickens]] 08:54, 6 June 2012 (CDT)		:I feel there's the possibility Wotsaruto is a character that wants to be like Mozart, given he/she plays Tone of Ocean badly.

	I still think it should be translated to Wozart, because it's a play off of Mozart! And THAT character is a boy!

			:Thanks {{user\|Star_Light}}, that makes sense. It's a shame that there is no official answer. I was thinking it may be possible to see if there is any [[wikipedia:Gender differences in spoken Japanese\|gender specific]] speech in Wotsaruto's dialog, but if a Japanese blog specifically says there isn't then maybe not.

			:RE Memetchi: I personally thought of Wotsaruto as male due to what he/she is wearing, but it's not necessarily true. In my opinion it's far more generally accepted today for females to wear suits and to a certain degree bow ties, given that many professions and schools require a suit, so I don't think its accurate to draw conclusions from stereotypes.
