Previous discussions without headers[edit]

Haha, I want to name my daughter after Princess Zelda too! Wow, she's only a month older than me. Weird. She really doesn't look 17, but then again, the pics that I saw might have been old. So, can someone put up pictures or something? ForestAngel 20:57, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a friend of hers, and you're right... she doesn't look like she's 18. I guess it's because she's so short! :) :) 68.19.27.135 04:42, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Are there any sources for the "named after the princess" thing? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.199.93.254 (talk) 17:09, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, there is- http://www.switched.com/2008/07/07/robin-williams-daughter-zelda-is-cooler-than-her-dad --CanesOL79 (talk) 17:03, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unless I'm missing something, the referenced article doesn't mention anything about the source of her name... 67.164.197.157 (talk) 23:12, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Commercial as a source[edit]

Is it really appropriate to use a TV commercial as a source? It seems quite conceivable that the creators asked Robin Williams to do the commerical because he had a daughter called Zelda, as opposed to the other way round (as suggested). I'm not sure either way, but since it is possible, the commercial doesn't seem like an incontravertible source. That being said, is it certain that she was named after Princess Zelda? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.229.172.13 (talk) 20:42, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Information lacking[edit]

She is an avid shooter/marksman. The article makes no reference of that. She appeared as a celebrity marksman on the outdoor Chanel's "shooting gallery". The episode is titled "1911". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.61.64.110 (talk) 03:17, 6 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

edit needed[edit]

Williams lived in Los Angeles but now resides in her hometown of San Francisco.

Well, he died so he's not living anywhere at all anymore — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.79.143.139 (talk) 03:35, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"Williams" is Zelda Williams, not Robin Williams. I think most readers will get that as she is the subject of the article and the statement is in a separate paragraph from the other members of the Williams family. Reach Out to the Truth 03:52, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hobbies[edit]

This section needs serious review - it just reads like one big advert for Nintendo's Zelda game. Compare the size of it to her "Career" (2 sentences), which is what i would have thought would have been the main reason for a page on her to exist. Begs the question, who started this entry?

"She has stated that Wikipedia and Notcot.org are websites she visits frequently" - do we need to know this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.125.129.50 (talk) 07:59, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Amount of episodes for Zelda in Legend of Korra[edit]

Zelda Williams had more than eleven episodes in Legend of Korra as Kuvira if you count her cameos in season three. 47.33.201.92 (talk) 04:15, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
