Linlin's name was initially romanized as such in Chapter 829. However, in Chapter 868, it was romanized as "Rinrin" on her first wanted poster. This was fixed in Episode 838 of the anime adaptation. Additionally in the Simulcasts, the FUNimation subs listed her alias as "Big Mam" during the Fish-Man Island Arc. This was corrected in later arcs.

Epithet[]
In One Piece Green: Secret Pieces, Linlin's epithet was romanized as Big Mom. However, in Chapter 610, her name was romanized as Big Mam.[18] Later, in Chapter 651, her name was again romanized by Oda as "Big Mom" when Sanji was fantasizing about her appearance.[19] In the magazine release of Chapter 930, her name reappears as "Big Mam" in her crew's name,[20] while the sail of the Queen Mama Chanter in the same chapter have "Big Mom" written across it like previous appearances.[21]
When Tamago stated that Linlin was a female pirate, Sanji imagined her as an attractive redhead.[19]
Linlin shares her name with the real-life pirates Charlotte Badger and Charlotte de Berry, although in their case Charlotte is their given name.
Linlin is the youngest person known to have captained a pirate crew, having led the Big Mom Pirates since she was 6 years old.
Linlin became the oldest of the four emperors upon Whitebeard's death.
While the Big Mom Pirates, and Totto Land as a whole, seem heavily inspired by fairy tales and fantasy fiction, Linlin in particular shares traits with several characters from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland novel:
The Queen of Hearts with their extreme selfishness, short tempers, their similar appearances (obese, bulbous nose and a very wide grin), abnormal size, and the way they dress. They both also rule over their bizarre kingdoms with iron fists and have the tendency to order the decapitation of others.
Linlin's desire to include giants into her country is ironic, considering that the Queen of Hearts forbade anyone who is a "mile-high" in her kingdom.
The Mad Hatter with their obsession with tea parties, intolerance for latecomers and constantly wearing very unique hats.
The Duchess with their insane mood swings, oversized head, ugly face, and treating their children and anyone else they see as subservient to them in ways convenient only for themselves.
Also, in the anime, when she was about to take Moscato's lifeforce, she briefly took on a face that resembled the Cheshire Cat's.
During Linlin's rampage through Sweet City due to craving croquembouche, she climbed a tower, roared, and waved her other hand in rage, similar to the famous actions of King Kong.
Given her ability to grant life to anything she wishes, along with the power to control the weather fusing her special homies, Linlin likely gives reference to the concept of Mother Nature.
Linlin was first issued a bounty at the age of six, making her the youngest known individual to ever have a bounty placed on their head.[12] The second youngest is Nico Robin who gained her first bounty as an eight-year-old.
She currently has the second highest known bounty in the world and the highest known bounty for a female character at 4,388,000,000.
In her bounty of 4,388,000,000, the 8-8 can be reads as ha-ha. 母 (haha) means "mother", which could refer to her epithet, "Big Mom" (ビッグ・マム,Biggu Mamu?).
Linlin is the only member of the original Four Emperors to not have any visible scars.
Linlin's parenting style starkly contrasts with that of Whitebeard; while Newgate cherishes his unrelated subordinates as his children and is willing to wage a war just to save one of them, Linlin uses her biological children as soldiers and is willing to kill them if they displease her.
Her style is similar to that of Kaidou, who desires to use his only son as a pawn to his scheme.
In the seventh popularity poll, Linlin ranked at 86th place, currently making her the least popular of the Four Emperors.
Eustass Kid was the first character shown using Linlin's epithet and he was also the first character shown to defeat her in the series, alongside Trafalgar Law.[22][23]
Despite being among the original Four Emperors, Kaidou interestingly did not include her among the few who would fight him. Said people being Gol D. Roger, Edward Newgate, Rocks D. Xebec, Kozuki Oden, and Shanks (Possibly, because of the alliance they had formed to find One Piece).
Before being stripped of her title as one of the Four Emperors, Linlin was the only female member of the group.
