This is a pretty "PriPara Ancient Texts" ask, but do you recall anything about the widespread assumption/insistence that "Bokerdole" (or some other transliteration of VocalDoll) was Falulu's canonical last name? Did anyone in canon ever call her "Falulu VocalDoll" rather than "Falulu, a VocalDoll", was there any substance to it, or is it as unfounded as the convention of spelling her name Faruru even though she literally signs an autograph "Falulu" in one of her first appearances?
From my understanding, "Bokerdole" is nothing more than an early mistranslation of "vocal doll" that the English-speaking fan community just ran with.
In a very early episode, before she was named, the Japanese closed captions referred to her as just ボーカルドール, i.e. "vocal doll" but literally "bokarudoru" and one person somewhere, for some reason, saw this and decided this meant her name must be "Bokerdole" and it stuck. Falulu does not and has never had a last name.

One-shot draft! (This is a test version of the one-shot I do plan on writing so the personlities of the characters are bland af)
Word Count for practice draft: 417
"We can talk about this after I ring the bell, Princess Falulu"
"Maho-Chan!"
Falulu reached out her hand towards Hibiki before she was flung back by the gust of wind Hibiki made while flying off.
"Falulu!"
Falulu was caught by her friend Laala, Falulu looked and begged Laala to stop Hibiki from ringing the bell, Laala flew off to attempt to stop Hibiki but failed being flung back.
"Grab my hand, Falulu!"
Falulu grabbed onto the other idol's hand and they formed a circle, they helped Laala speed up while Laala also gained the platinum airy chasing after Hibiki.
"Laala! Stop Maho-Chan!"
Everyone cheered for Laala as she reached Hibiki, but to Falulu's dismay Hibiki grabbed the ribbon just a second before.
"Maho-Chan..."
"Hibiki-sama"
Fuwari watched as the celepara opera company unit rang the bell Hibiki the only one looking joyful as the group did so Shion, Sophie, Leona and Falulu looked regretful.
The group of idols watched as the bell began to shine granting Hibiki's wish of becoming a vocaldoll, The AllFreinds unit were teleported back to the dream theatre watching the screen as their rival group rang the bell.
Hibiki's unit flew towards the ground, Leona and Shion being forced to carry a passed out Hibiki to the ground Falulu rushed up to Meganii.
"What's wrong with her?"
Meganii rushed onto the stage past the panicking idols, he helped Leona and Shion lay the passed out celeb idol on the ground he looked back at Falulu.
"I have no idea, this hasn't happened before and without my glasses or ownership of PriPara I won't be able to find a way to help"
Meganii said regretfully, Fuwari rushed onto the stage leaning down to sit next to Hibiki, placing her head against the chest of the white haired idol.
"She doesn't have a heart beat, but she is still breathing somehow could this be her body processing the effects of becoming a vocaldoll?"
Fuwari asked at the brunette who looked like he was thinking before nodding, everyone looked relieved multiple Meganees rushed into the dream theatre placing Hibiki on a stretcher.
Laala rushed up to Falulu and Fuwari while apologising repeatedly, Falulu reassured Laala that she tried her best and she did all she could to stop Hibiki.
"Laala-chan, Don't blame yourself you did all you could"
Falulu said, everyone nodded but the depressing aura in the air wouldn't go away even after the reassurance Laala still felt like she failed everyone.
