Official names for pieces

There's a comment on this article that says to not correlate the names to the pieces until we have an official listing. However, it seems to me that we already have this listing?

The article lists the piece names in the same order as the Square Enix store page, and that same page has images of the pieces lined up. If the pieces are looked at left-to-right in these images, the name listing order matches the piece order exactly.

Is this sufficient proof to label the pieces on this article? If it still needs to be more specific, what would be sufficient enough? Like, if Square sold and listed each piece separately? --Boblers (talk) 18:27, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

I'm confused about that, too, now that I'm looking at it. Rather than the names of the pieces, I wonder if the person who added it meant like which pieces correlate to actual chess pieces (King, Queen, Rook, Bishop, and etc.)? For example, if this is meant to resemble chess, is Sora considered to be the King piece?--NinjaSheik 03:42, 2 November 2021 (UTC)

Oh I wrote that footnote, I meant that no don't correlate what piece with what piece's name is as obvious as it appears, unless its actually confirmed. As in, don't say the piece that has the Sora's symbol is the Sora piece. The SQEX listing only put out a list of piece names, but doesn't what specific piece is name what, as obvious as it.

Axel, not Lea (officially)

All of the names listed on the page are taken from the official Square Enix store listing, not based on plot information. You can see it for yourself here, and under "Additional Information", the piece is labeled as "Axel". So, even if it's representing the original form and not the Nobody, that's the official designation, not "Lea" (and even from an in-universe perspective, Lea uses the name Axel, so it's not necessarily inaccurate). That's also why it's "Terra Gold Ver." and not "Terra-Xehanort". —Aid1043 00:28, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
