[edit] Name of article

Why is this article not named Swazi lilangeni? It appears that the standard convention for currency names is to use the adjectival form of the country followed by the name of the currency. According to the US State Department's website, Swazi is the correct adjectival form of Swaziland. SDC 12:42, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

Seems reasonable to me.

[edit] Why the radical change in spelling for the plural?

Not only does the name change from singular to plural (rather than just adding an s), but the INITIAL letter changes, and also the monetary symbol. What's the explanation? 216.179.123.101 (talk) 17:23, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
