Talk:Ameyuri Ringo

Gender
Ameyuri is female or male? I personally think she is a woman --Leodix/My Talk/Contributions''' 05:26, January 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * I think the character should remain genderless, either until gender is specified, or if someone is familiar with Japanese names and culture, they could figure out if it's male or female. Yes, I think she's a women also, but then that would be adding speculation to her/his page. ~ Fmakck - Talk - Contributions 05:36, January 13, 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree this is the same situation Kurotsuchi was in.Deva 27 (talk) 05:42, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

Since Shounensuki says that yuri is a common female name ending, should Ameyuri be considered female?


 * I don't see why not. ~ Fmakck - Talk - Contributions 01:00, January 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * While it's common there are males with their names ending in 'yuri' While i believe that this person is probably male given Kirigakure's whole background, leaving the character genderless couldn't hurt i suppose.--Cerez365 (talk) 01:01, January 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * Question: Is there any reason, other than "yuri" in the name, that suggest that this character is female?--TheUltimate3 ~Aspect of Wiki ~ 01:11, January 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ameyuri does have a somewhat feminine appearance. I don't think I've ever seen a name ending in 由利 being used for a man. That and Ameyuri's androgynous appearance is enough to at least bring their gender in doubt. —ShounenSuki (talk 01:17, January 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * Should there not be a pic here showing Ameyuri wielding his/her blades?--Zicoihno (talk) 05:28, January 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * Like with everything else, let's leave it until the manga tells us. While Ameyuri Ringo does have female looks, there's also the fact that the Swordsmen are infact that; Men. So I think we should leave the gender blank until we find out for sure. Could just be like Haku. Look female but was well, a male. SusanooUnleashed (talk) 08:27, January 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * In most languages, even one male member means a group is referred to by its male form. So, don't take swordsmen to mean it consists of only men. ~SnapperTo 08:31, January 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * Well duuuh, I knew this. I'm referring to the facts we know. The ressurected are all male with the exception of Ameyuri Ringo, as this is what we're debating, obviously. The next generation were also male. Going back to my previous statement Snapper, let's just leave it until the manga tells us, like we usually do. I wasn't claiming to be a know it all, as my previous statement clearly shows. SusanooUnleashed (talk) 10:54, January 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * @Snapper2: I would like to point out that the Japanese name has no gender-related wordings. it's completely gender-neutral. —ShounenSuki (talk 09:26, January 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * All the more reason not to take "swordsmen" as significant. ~SnapperTo 17:30, January 27, 2011 (UTC)

Name
I am not informed about names and surnames in japanese, so could someone explain me is his name Ringo or Ameyuri? Here it is Ringo Ameyuri, and I know that in English it is more frequent to use first name and then surname, and since this is an english translation is his name Ringo?--Ttogafer (talk) 11:52, January 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ameyuri is the given name, Ringo is the family name. —ShounenSuki (talk 12:09, January 14, 2011 (UTC)
