Where are all these romanization variants coming from?[]

I've always understood the name as "Dymlos Timbre", and this is how people refer to him on most communities I go to. Naturally there is no "correct" romanization for his last name since ToD2 was never localized. Of course we're ignoring Dymlos vs. Dimlos since this part of his name has been localized.

But we need a fact check here - that picture and the infobox both display the name "Timber", while the page is named "Tinbar". I know that this picture is from the official artwork for the PS2 remake of ToD, but the name was photoshopped into the picture. It does not exist in the original. I don't have the time to look through the official JP Tales Channel site to see if his last name was ever written in romaji, but I doubt it ever was. So I want to request some level of consistency - use "Timbre". And spam redirect pages for all the variants. (The links for "Swordian Dymlos" and so on should be redirected as well, instead of being link-masked or whatever the term is.)

Yes I'm biased, bite me.

Actually, the name isn't photoshopped in. It's part of the image from the official site. See here. So, all of the five playable Swordians have romanized names. I'm moving the page to Dymlos Timber as a compromise between the NA (Dymlos) and JP-only (Timber). Lanate (talk) 17:17, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
