"Sarah" *writing-major tears* I don't understand the issue. I think her name is supposed to be "Sara" without the "H" at the end. Not that big a deal honestly.

I don't understand the issue. You'd've thought that a professional journalist would be able to correctly spell a name... I've seen multiple articles from different people write it as Sarah though.

I'm just saying this article is far from the only one that has used Sarah rather than Sara. In fact I don't think I've seen any articles use Sara. Maybe it is a recent change, as in after the interviews hence the discrepancy. Or the people writing the articles only heard it verbally, so wrote how the name is commonly spelled.

This really depend on the part of the world. In Italian is Sara. "Sarah" is the english version, and doesn't exist in Italian. And Italian editor may cancel all the "h".

Surely Sara and Sarah are pronounced differently? They certainly are in the UK!
Personally I prefer Sarah.

In portuguese Sara would also be the more common spelling. Also in Spanish, but I suspect that the articles to which Hanako refers were mostly in English.

"Letter Wars" Of course in this situation, a Polish/Italian/Spanish/Portuguese editor who knows that the game is in English and that the common English spelling is with an H might still think that they're being clever by correcting it. Another likely scenario is that the reporters just wrote the name they were told without seeing it written...

Sara as a spelling is becoming more popular. Most kids from the 5-12 yr age range have no H.

Sarah and Sara are both pronounced the same in NA. In England Sarah rhymes with hair - rah and Sara rhymes with Car - rah so they're very different! If nothing else, the origin of that name drives from the Bible, and in Hebrew it sounds more like Car-Rah (Sara).

A "British" accent, eh? That means precisely nothing, but I suppose they mean RP or perhaps cockney. That just reminds me of these:
