==Name==
==Name==
Zan Partizanne's name differs from the names of the other two Mage Sisters in both the English and Japanese versions. In English, the two have a single word name that starts with F, and are named after a weapon with no modifications, while in Japanese, both start with フラン (that can be read as both "Fran" or "Flam") and are followed by a word. Due to this, prior to her name reveal, fans speculated that her name would follow the same patterns in the respective languages. Once her real name was announced, it came as a bit of a surprise. Series director [[Shinya Kumazaki]] named her differently on purpose, to surprise the players, make them feel as if she had a different origin from the other two, and make her unique with a really long name.<ref>[https://www.ndw.jp/kirby_02/ Nintendo Dream interview, rough translation: "As the leader of the Three Mage-Sisters, I think people would expect her name to be “Fran-something”, but I wanted to surprise them. I wanted players to imagine that her birth was different from the other two, and I also wanted her to be unique, with a remarkably long and hard to remember name like “Eine Kleine Nachtmusik” (laughs).] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20190611073822/https://www.ndw.jp/kirby_02/ Wayback Machine archive])</ref>

Zan Partizanne's unwieldy name has also become a running joke on the [[Kirby JP Twitter]]. When she presents news on the official Twitter, she often reminds the readers to remember her name.

Additionally, Zan Partizanne is an admirer of [[Hyness]], but the robed sorcerer does not reciprocate her feelings. In particular, Hyness routinely forgets her name, which is referenced in his phase 2 boss fight pause description in [[The Ultimate Choice]].

==Nicknames to other characters==
Zan Partizanne has a habit of giving other characters nicknames. For example, she refers to her sisters lovingly as "Franny" ('''キッス''' ''Kiss'' in Japanese) and "Berge" ('''ルージュ''' ''Rouge'' in Japanese), while she refers to Kirby by varying derogatory nicknames like "tiny ball of pink puffy mischief" and "stubby pink ball" ('''ずんぐりピンク''' ''Stubby Pink'' in Japanese). She eventually refers to Kirby properly by name at the end of [[Heroes in Another Dimension]], indicating that she now takes him seriously. More of these nicknames can be seen by her reports on the [[Kirby JP Twitter]] feed, including:
