The Last Airbender returns
Our period of rejoicing ends Wikians. Recently, a leaked trailer for Nick shows of the future implied that the name of the show we all anticipate would be Avatar: The Legend of Korra. Today, a Nickelodeon official said that the name is only to be used internationally and that the name The Last Airbender: Legend of Korra is the name to be used in America.
We need to update the links to articles as well as rename the page, which will of course disable commenting for a good long while as the thousands of comments move along with the page. This will cause some inconveniences, but it is all for the accuracy of the wiki.
Also, in response to this news being posted on his site, the leaker has announced an end to leaking new information.
Farewell, normal sounding title.

I like it but not the female leader and name
-
Should it not be called Four Air benders and counting. o-0
-
Oh well, at least the normal sounding title is official in some places.
-
I guess someone should list this show under Artifact Title in tvtropes once this airs. I was looking forward to the international title being used for the American version of the show, but I don't think this change will affect the show too badly.
-
Thay should just call it The Legend of Korra in US not The Last Airbender: Legend of Korra. Nickelodeon you are very stupid for calling it that.
-
WHUT?! NO!!! *annoyed* It better come out soon........stupid blue aliens. *walks away mumbling and cursing to herself*
-
In the netherlands TLA was named Avatar: The Legend of Aang so It's not a surprise for us that it is also used with Korra
-
Regardless of what they name it; it will always be Avatar: Legend of Korra to those who loved the show from the beginning.
-
Why dont we fans just call it avatar lok.nothing saying we can't call it that.
-
Yes, fans already refer to it as Avatar: Legend of Korra. : )
-
This is the first time for a looooong time that I'm happy to live in Holland
-
Why Our period of rejoicing ends?
-
what?
-
Everyone was happy that sources suggested the title would be Avatar: Legend of Korra. Now Americans are no longer happy because in America the title will be The Last Airbender: Legend of Korra. So the time for celebrating is done.
-
Unless you don't live in America.
-
Ok, I know much people is angry with all this title changes, but there's some other franchises out there who uses titles that doesn't make sense: Take for example Charlaine Harris' The Southern Vampire Mysteries who now is known better as Trrue Blood thanks to the series but True Blood is not a plot keyline, only a sinthetic drink for vampires.... Or Dune, a series of science fiction novels who in the latest books are not totally centred in the titular planet.
-
who's the last airbender now? >.> seriously that's not just a mouthful, it's really lame
-
No one. There are four airbenders in this show.
-
actually 5: Tenzin, Jinora, Ikki, Meelo, and... hmmmm can't think of it.. OH! THE AVATAR
-
At first glance at the title, I thought this was going to be about the return of that M. Night Shamalan movie. I was relieved to find out it was just the name change. LOL
-
ok nick make up your mind is it going to be TLA:LOK or A:LOK. MAKE UP YOUR MIND NICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
They already have. It's TLA:LOK.
-
actually its only were james camron decides to be a moneygrubbing douchbag the most.
-
Being Brittish Rocks :D
-
Yeah, but don't get your hopes so high up. Remember when Snickers candy bar had to be called Marathon until the 1990s? Similarly, after one or two seasons of the show, "Legend of Korra" will be established enough that Viacom will be ready globalize it as TLA:LoK. Then we have deal with "bender" being a British slang for a male homosexual. Fancy a fag?

LMAO Hasdi. I love your logic.
-
This idea is just dumb...
-
I love avatar and do not want a Korry there. He wants to continue the adventure avatar! .
-
Ah well, I'll still call it avatar
-
Most people still will anyway.
-
So if I move to Russia, I can still say Avatar: Legend of Korra?
-
No. In Soviet Russia, Avatar: Legend of Korra say you!
-
XD
Yes. To both of you.
-
By Tjorz, how much I enjoy a Frenchman … But I suppose it was made obvious in my ID in the first place … French high-fives TAD (and Lady, if she's around), his fellow foreigners, who can use the true name of the series
-
TAD, I am already in India, so I call it Avatar: The Legend of Korra! Mwahahahahahahaha!
-
Tch; so totally not fair. Excluded. ^^"
-
Someone on the LoK article plans on ordering the DVDs from Europe because those would have the correct title. I thought that was a great idea, execpt I would probably try Canada first for lower shipping costs.
-
I'll just call it Legend of Korra. At least there might be some TLA:LoK bookbags or some crap.
-
Jamaican in the house :D Yeaaaah buddy.
