The current names used are the ones provided by KyoAni on both their websites and merch released directly by them as stated in previous discussions on this topic; to prove this point I've created a compilation of as many instances as I could find for each character with potentially contentious spelling provided by KyoAni themselves which I'll put at the bottom of this reply.

MAL are a reasonably reputable source of information, but for spelling I'm less inclined to use them as a source due to the fact they appear to defult to spelling all names with additional u's and o's regardless of information provided by either the seiyuu themselves (in the case of voice actors) or by the animation companies (in the case of characters). By your reasoning regarding Kouki Miyata, if you look at how Ikuya's seiyuu has been credited you'll note that they have him listed as "Kouki Uchiyama" even though his name is clearly listed as being written as "Koki" on his company website.

As such, in keeping with our previous conversations and the images I've provided I think it makes more sense to leave the names as following:

-Rei Ryugazaki

-Sosuke Yamazaki

-Momotaro Mikoshiba

-Seijuro Mikoshiba

-Hiyori Tono

-Ryuji Azama

The only one that is still problematic is Albert's surname, one piece of merch has his name listed as Wählander while the RttW site lists him as "Volandel". I'm inclined to use the site's spelling as it is the most recent information and I've had my doubts about the authenticity of that merch piece, but what do you guys think?
