→Why are we still calling the Master's eye the "Gazing Eye"?

I mean...he made it pretty clear that his eye (or keyblade for that matter) doesn't actually have a name. The term was something just made up on the spot by Luxu and immediately dismissed by the Master. So....wouldn't it better to just call it the Master's Eye or something? --[[User:Ignis|Ignis]] ([[User talk:Ignis|talk]]) 00:36, 1 March 2017 (UTC) | I mean...he made it pretty clear that his eye (or keyblade for that matter) doesn't actually have a name.

:I didn't interpret that line as talking about the eye, especially since the way Luxu phrased it pretty strongly implied that the MoM had just said the words "Gazing Eye". Regardless, whether it is the ritualistically "true" heart-name for the concept in-universe, it is still a name the canon uses for the concept, and thus weighted in privilege to anything we come up with ourselves. "Master's Eye" itself would imply that ''that'' name is canon, which would be erring in the wrong direction. "Master's eye", maybe, but then we're talking about the eye itself and not the symbol I would think. But I can go with "'Master's eye' icon", sure. It's an accurate if non-canon descriptor, like "entelechy". | |||
::I would ''love'' for Nomura to come up with official terms for those concepts, though -- the unnamed Keyblades, the symbols, if there's a name for a complete being, etc.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 01:09, 1 March 2017 (UTC) | |||
