Marilyn Monroe[edit]

Do we have any reference that she’s supposed to be inspired by Marilyn Monroe? I thought that was Monique as Claudia basically looks like a purple tiger. Do we have a citation for that claim? WolfpawOfficial (talk) 11:31, December 28, 2020 (EST)

I'd be in favor of removing it. The claim only suggests that she was 'probably' inspired by Monroe which looks to me like speculation. Drago (talk) Drago PC Villager Icon.png 13:09, December 28, 2020 (EST)
I actually think the reference is worth a mention though as Marilyn did have half-closed eyes and a mole on her left cheek. Monique's mole is actually on the wrong side. Very few villager names have confirmed origin stories, and are essentially speculation. The article could be reworded to reflect this: 'probably because she resembles Marilyn Monroe...' can become 'may be a reference to Marilyn Monroe...'.

Yeah, we could mention it. It just seemed a bit like spitballing instead of solid information. What sunmarsh stated sounds good. WolfpawOfficial (talk) 13:25, December 28, 2020 (EST)
I believe what sunmarsh meant was that Monique bears some resemblance to Marilyn Monroe. I've gone ahead and removed the info from this page since Claudia looks nothing like her. ~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 15:29, December 28, 2020 (EST)
No, I was referring to Claudia. Although I see how my response could have been misinterpreted. Either way, it's not a big deal. Sunmarshsignature.png (talk) 14:03, December 31, 2020 (EST)
