User blog comment:Damesukekun/Song Translating and Mistranslating/@comment-36304528-20180930111502

Hey, I just wanted to ask about something which I think might be a mistranslation- that is, Hachi's song Rinne is commonly referred to as Lynne in English. It's even posted as the English here: https://vocaloid.wikia.com/wiki/リンネ_(Rinne).

But as pointed out just below, Rinne is the word for Samsara. Not to mention every celebrity I know named Lynne has an article in Japanese written as リン, not リンネ. And the song itself never references anyone named Lynne... Am I mistaken, is there real reason to believe that the song should be titled "Lynne" in English? Because I feel like this is a mistranslation of the title of the song that got accepted as "official" since the song came out so long ago, when translations were scarcer.
