''Within the story'', Bill searches for "London 1814 sea creature" on [[Search Wise]]. So in-narrative, Bill thinks this is the best name to find this creature by. We should probably follow suit.{{User:SOTO/sig}} 05:17, May 16, 2017 (UTC) | ''Within the story'', Bill searches for "London 1814 sea creature" on [[Search Wise]].

:: Well, that's disappointing. Just when we could go by the onscreen name and be done with it, they go and throw an alternative in-universe name into the mix. If pressed to choose, I would still go with "sea creature" for the following reason. The comic reference seems to be more colloquial, descriptive. "Hey, I'm [[Lucie Miller|Lucie bleeding Miller]]"-type of thing, which doesn't make "bleeding" her middle name. The onscreen search is, on the other hand, how Bill expected this to be recorded in history books, in encyclopaedias, in other words, in official records. So at the moment I would prefer a "sea creature"-based name. But it might make sense to wait a little longer for more references.
