Any name from a source not covered above is considered unofficial and conjectural. Generally, conjecturally named subjects don't have articles because they are either not noteworthy enough to have an article or don't have much information to cover. However, subjects that are detailed and noteworthy enough to have articles still have to adhere to certain guidelines. | Any name from a source not covered above is considered unofficial and conjectural.

Conjectural names are usually decided upon by the users of {{SITENAME}} or commonly used names by the ''Rhythm Heaven'' community. When deciding on a name, the name must be simple yet accurate.

When deciding on a name, the name must be simple yet accurate. Currently, the only applicable example is [[Tanooki & Monkey]], an unused game in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' with no title found in the code, with the name coming from a [[List of Scrapped Rhythm Games]] which fits the description of the game. | ||

In certain cases, names may be changed because the old name is replaced with a newer name. An example of this is how games like "The Clappy Trio" were changed to [[The Clappy Trio 2]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''. In these cases, the newer name will replace the older one with certain exceptions. Exceptions include naming errors, translation errors, the use of aliases/nicknames, or if a newer release is simply a rerelease of an older game (such as the Wii U Virtual Console version ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]''). When mentioning subjects whose names have changed overtime, the newest name generally takes greater priority, except in the context of older media where they went by previous names, in which case those are used instead. For example, the list of games on ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'''s page lists the game as [[The Clappy Trio 2|Pachi Pachi Sanninshu]], while the one for ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' lists it as [[The Clappy Trio 2|The Clappy Trio]], as the game was known in those games. | In certain cases, names may be changed because the old name is replaced with a newer name.
