> Squall Leonhart also gets Richard the Lionheart references

Does he? I'm not familiar with Final Fantasy, but the only reference I found googling is his signature attack "Lion Heart", which original Japanese name is (surprise) " End of Heart " (in English). Which makes me wonder if Squall's references to Richard I are as  unsubstantiated as Avadonia's, and if the translators just did the same mistake, thinking of  ハルト  as "heart", while the original intention was German name Leonhard or Leonhardt.

Actually, I thought the same way all this time, and I can understand that. It's only yestarday that I suddenly discovered that is  レオンハルト  Japanese spelling of Leonhard or Leonhardt. Before that I would be the first to argue that Leonheart's name means Lionheart. But now that I take the newly discovered fact in consideration, I see no reason to leave it with "t", unless somewhere it's clearly stated (preferably by mothy) that it's a referense to Lionheart. And on the heavanly yard I didn't find any mentions of Richard I.

Ah, and sorry if it looks like I came out of nowhere and started to order around to rename characters. I only want to know if there is or isn't any oficial confirmation of the Lionheart reference.
