Talk:Mikhalych

Subtitles
The subtitles show this guy's name as Mikhalych. I'd just like to know where we got "Mikhailovich" from.

Also, sorry if creating Mikhalych was bothersome. I wasn't aware of this article.

 * Okay, thanks.


 * And I know the name isn't pronounced Mikhalych, but it's spelt that way in the subtitles. That's why I'm confused.

 * If it's spelt that way then make it so. I'd prefer to see a screenshot of proof though first, if nobody minds. Chaos ian7 20:54, November 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * It's no issue, mate. Here's a screenshot showing a quote made to Mikhalych from Bourbon. I'll rename the article now.

Mikhalych isn't the name
Mikhalych (Михалыч) is from Mikhailovich (Михайлович), this is a patronym. Mikhailovich is an oficial form, and Mikhalych is a form used by friends and other close people.

Hello voice from the aether, while it may be odd to be referring to the character in such a 'friendly' way, the character is never addressed as Mikhailovich. Thus renaming the article would be confusing for anyone trying to find this article (the few that there may be). And besides, we already have a trivia note (ugh) stating how oddly personal the tone of the name is.  C haos i an  20:09, June 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * Actually, Burbon's spoken line clearly says "Mikhailovich", while the subtitles show "Mikhalych". So either the subtitles are wrong, or the English version got the spoken line wrong. If anyone could compare it against the Russian dub, it would solve this, most likely. --Kainzorus Prime ⚜  Walkie-talkie  12:53, October 16, 2014 (UTC)
