I've said quite a few times that Link isn't defined as a boy throughout all of the Zelda universe. Link is just a incarnation of heroes, and each Link is a, ahem, link, in a long chain of heroes. Why can't one of those Links be female? I mean, is the gender of the hero predefined?
Link isn't one character, unlike Samus, Mario, Peach, Master Chief, Kratos, Nathan Drake, whatever, so it wouldn't be changing the gender of an already pre-defined character, because Link isn't a pre-defined character.
So I'd be completely fine with a LoZ starring a female Link. However screw the name "Linkle". Link sounds just as much like a girl's name (if not more) than it sounds like a boy's name, so just call her Link.
