 * One is a proper noun 🤷 —Suzukaze-c◇◇ 18:08, 2 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Ya, this is SOP for JA terms that have proper nouns -- the romanization of the proper noun takes initial capitalization. If there's also a homophonic term that is not a proper noun, then you have cases like this one, where there are two romanizations that differ solely in capitalization.
 * See also and  as a similar example in a different language.  ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 00:51, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
