Talk:Diantha
Name meaning
Diantha's English, French, and Spanish names refer to the dianthus, more commonly known as the carnation or pink. Her Japanese name seems to be an intentional misspelling of "carnation" (カーネーション), with "carna-" becoming カルネ. Arpha (talk) 20:09, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
Key Stone
Diantha has a Key Stone embedded in her necklace, like how male XY protagonist and female XY protagonist have one embedded in their Mega Rings. herefore she is a Mega Man. Can this be added to the article or is it speculation right now? --The Truth aka Relicant 11:35, 14 September 2013 (UTC)
Resemblance
Diantha seems to bear a fairly decent resemblance to French actress Audrey Tautou (others elsewhere see some of Audrey Hepburn) and both of course share the same profession. Too much of a stretch to add somewhere or best kept out of the page? Chicobo329 (talk) 23:28, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
- I might of said yes if I didn't check the articles, but I would say that there should be a bit more discussion on adding Audrey Tautou since there are three points of similarity. --Super goku (talk) 03:29, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
- Doesn't Ken Sugimori have a Twitter account? Why doesn't somebody ask him? Glik (talk) 03:43, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
- She is exactly like Audrey Hepburn to me, too similar to be a coincidence. Someone who knows Japanese should ask Sugimori via Twitter. Wasn't that how he finally confirmed Brendan has a hat, and not white hair? - Taylor (talk) 13:19, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Connection to Diancie?
No, I'm not referring to the names, although I noticed right from the start that there might have been a gemstone pun intended -- Carnet sounds like garnet, Diantha starts the same as diamond. But surely it can't be coincidence that her design has such striking similarities to Diancie? The braid that wraps around her head creates diamonds that match the cuts in Diancie's forehead gemstone, and both the ends of her scarf and the bottom of her coat have a scalloped edge that match Diancie's dress. Originally, I had thought her fashion was loosely based on Gardevoir, but Diancie's design is a far more distinct match, enough to at least warrant further investigation. --Pie ~♪♫ 22:20, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
