* Brooke from ''[[Eerie Cuties]]'' and her people are called "melusines," even though traditionally, "Melusine" was a specific individual - what she was was a "nixie." It would be like calling gorgons "medusas." [[Oh, Wait!]], [[Dungeons & Dragons|that totally happens]].
== Web Original ==
* [[SCP Foundation]] has an in-universe example with SCP-953, [[Yokai| a kumino.]] Personnel are advised to ''never'' refer to her as a kitsune, because she ''really'' gets angry at humans who call her such. Should anyone ask what the difference is, protocol says to explain that a Navajo would likely be offended if mistaken for a Cherokee, and that this is similar. Indeed, mistaking a kumiho for a kitsune would likely be the last mistake a human would make, as a kitsune is ''far'' more likely to be friendly to humans than [[Exclusively Evil| the sadistic and homicidal kumino.]]
