| A lot of the Western minifigs have official names! I know this is a bit of a
lame request since it's not a popular theme and is pretty much just an easter
egg, but would it be possible to include their names in parentheses in the catalog
titles? It's all from Brickipedia, which links references for the names from
official sources such as catalogs, magazines and video games.

Older LEGO figures have different names in the associated media in different
countries. If they add the ones used in the USA, they should add all the names
used in other countries.

I would not be at all surprised if there were multiple localized names
for each minifig.
TLG has done extensive work in name localization (mostly for sets), which BL
does not have a mechanism to properly display.

We have already done something similar to this in the past with other vintage
themes (e.g. Stingrays and Insectoids), so I don't see why these names should
not also be added (if not just for the historical information it conveys).
Therefore, I have added some of these names to the appropriate minifigures based
upon the most official sources that I looked through (LEGO catalogs and LEGO
magazines) and the exact minifigure builds associated with each of the names.
I have not added the names that only appeared in a video game or other such source
nor alternate builds of figures that may not be the same character.
Although this request has been completed, it has been moved to the "Catalog"
thread and left in the "Open" status to retain the information in it.
Cheers,
Randy
