"Oh, oh, oh... Hi! Hello! I'm Melba, born under the sign of Aries!"

- Melba

Melba is a koala villager who first appeared in Animal Crossing: Wild World and subsequently in Animal Crossing: City Folk. Melba is named after Melba toast, a dry, crisp, and thinly-sliced piece of toast that originated and is popular in Australia, where koalas are also from. The product itself is named after Dame Nellie Melba, the stage name of Helen Porter Mitchell, an Australian opera singer in the 19th century. Consequently, Melba's phrase - "toasty" - is also a reference to Melba toast.
