Talk:Natron
From MediaWiki
So, why the move proposal? I think the guy is saying something closer to "Naytron" but it is hard to tell. - Starfield 21:16, 21 April 2009 (EDT)
- There is a move proposal because it is incredibly unlikely that he is actually named "Matron". "Nitron" (or maybe "Nightron") are both less crazy alternatives. (Of course, depending on who hears it, the bad guy vehicle could also be "Freezod"...) Monzo 00:29, 23 April 2009 (EDT)

- Listening to it, it sounds to me like the narrator is just pronouncing "Nitron" poorly. At any rate, I find "Nitron" to be a far better "guess" than "Matron", which means nothing and is derived from nothing. --DrSpengler 01:32, 23 April 2009 (EDT)
- Nitron sounds as good as anything. It could be related to "nitro" or something. "Matron" does mean something, but it is very un-Transformersy. - Starfield 08:32, 23 April 2009 (EDT)

A proper poll
Watch the commercial, then post what you think the name is. (Don't read what other people say first, the goal is to gather un-influenced opinions.) Important note: The name is mentioned twice.

- Natron (well, Naytron) - Starfield 10:32, 23 April 2009 (EDT)
- I hear it as Nitron or Natron—who is the white car, regardless. (Fixed the caption.) I suspect the article will be moved to "Natron" with a revised caveat about the guesswork for the name.--Apcog 11:47, 23 April 2009 (EDT)
- There isn't actually a white car in the picture. I just noticed. When the lights are on there is a white car and a red car. when the lights are off there is a blue car and a red car. On the box there is a yellow car and a blue car. I wonder if "colors may vary". But the white one is "Matron." - Starfield 12:00, 23 April 2009 (EDT)
- I hear Nitron/Natron (though, I prefer Nitron). --DrSpengler 12:01, 23 April 2009 (EDT)
- Sounds like "Naytron" to me... Considering that whole "nite glow" gimmick, though, I could get behind the name "Nitron." Sigh... I just wish some official publication could just be produced to clear this up. Ascendron 13:11, 23 April 2009 (EDT)
- I hear "Nay-trahn". Spell as you will. I tried hearing other variations but kept hearing the same. The other sounded to me as "Freezod" --Bluestreak7 13:41, 23 April 2009 (EDT)
