Inconsistent spelling ("Nambiar" / "Nambiyar")

Latest comment: 9 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

My remarks here are based upon this version (the "10:51, 10 August 2015‎" version) of the article.

The surname "Nambiar" is spelled without a "y" everywhere within the "Cast" section ("#Cast") [that's 3 places]; plus both of the first two places in the "Plot" section ("#Plot") -- near the beginning -- where the character names are initially introduced, and where each of those names is followed by a (parenthesized) -- and hyperlinked -- cast member name.

However, The surname is spelled with a "y", ("Nambiyar") everywhere else in the article that it occurs. That is 5 other places (a tie!) -- and the 5 places with Y's, all happen to be in the "Plot" section.

What is going on here? Is there some linguistic custom, or "orthographic" rule, that I am not familiar with? (Is it a transliteration of a name from some language that uses a different alphabet?) Or, -- [more likely!] -- are half of these ten name instances [occurrences], spelled wrong?

Wouldn't it be better to maintain some consistency? The name probably appears in the movie, somewhere. Even if the name does not appear on a door, or a name tag, or a prescription [bottle] ... or something like that, it probably does appear in the credits (right?). (Note: IMDB spells it "Nambiar" -- without a "y".) (Consistently!)

IMHO it should be spelled (here, in the article) consistently; ...probably without a "y" (right?) -- at least, if IMDB can be trusted as a guide. Just my 0.02.

Any comments? --Mike Schwartz (talk) 19:47, 9 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
