I agree, though I checked walkthroughs on gamefaqs for both Aretha 1 and 2, and neither mentioned Howard, so I'm going to assume that he's not in the SNES main-series titles.
The only other bit of terminology I can think of that we may need to syncrhonize is Doll's hometown, which I currently have listed as Haro-Haro town. He mentions it in passing, that he comes from "across the sea" so I don't think any of the other locations will be shared between the titles.
ハラルド I ran across this character in Aretha-II. It's translated "Harold", but it could also be "Harald". This person is not an enemy or boss as far as I can tell. He founded a town called Milbatos
, owns a big house there, and a statue of him is erected in the town square.
As for "Doll" we have a "Magic Doll" item, a crystal or porcelain figurine. We also have a character "Doole" (translated "Dole" by some), a magician
that fights alongside Carl and Ariel.
