So Jotaro and Jolyne's surnames are written the same way in Japanese (Kūjō / 空条), but in the official localization they are written differently (Kujo / Cujoh).

create alias kuujou_jouta -> kujo_jota
finishing the job.
If the first two aliases are deemed unnecessary I can switch them to a regular rename.
I still think it should be Cujoh Jolyne or Jolyne Cujoh, it's a far more common spelling from what I could tell, not to mention being the official localization.
At the very least the Cujoh spelling should be aliased for those that use it.
Personally, I prefer Kujo Jolyne for consistency with the rest of the family surname and the fact that the spelling is the same in japanese. Agree that at least Cujoh Jolyne / Jolyne Cujoh should be aliased to the tag in this case.
I didn't read Stone Ocean, but as far as I know, she adopted the Cujoh surname because she lives in Florida and wanted a more American style name. She also dislikes her father Jotaro, so she probably writes her name differently to distance her from him.

@Admiral_Pectoral You accidentally removed the kuujou jolyne alias when editing it, so I added it back in.

Oh no that wasn't accidental, I didn't think we could have two aliases for one thing but if we can then it's better for sure. Thanks!

If we're being consistent, that should be "kujo jota".

Changed some of these from renames to aliases because every tag with more than 200 posts needs to be an alias now.
There's still a lot of disagreement here over things like Cujoh vs. Kujo or Jota vs. Jouta. It's hard for me to tell what people actually want, but the BUR received more upvotes than downvotes so I'm sticking with it.
Sorry to bring back an older thread, but I've got one more thing I've noticed.
The kakyouin_noriaki and hirose_kouichi tags seem to be in a similar situation, but have not been changed. Should they be, or are they not important/iconic enough characters to warrant an exception?
