Why some of the name changes have been removed, like Alpha Trion and Hoist? I wanted this page to be a list of all the name change. I also would like to point out that this page is not about a caracter get his name changed in function of the dub, but about how they change their name inside of the story--GUIGUI 09:26, 12 January 2007 (UTC)!
- I'm not certain such a list is actually feasible. There are a lot of Transformers who've had their names changed, often at hard-to-pin-down points in time (when did Jazz start calling himself Meister?) or in confusing ways (remember when Divebomb stole Divebomb's name and then Divebomb changed his name to Swoop?). Sometimes what appears to be the same character with a new name is later revealed to be a new character. And then you have things like Rhinox/Tankor.
- What's more useful is a page about name changes, showing the kinds of situations where Transformers tend to get new names. To that end, I replaced A3/Alpha Trion and Smokescreen/Hoist with Outback/Fallback and Cyclonus/Snowcat, trying to show a greater variety of name changes. --Andrusi 15:08, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
