Hylian is the name of his race,but he's still human.
Example Asians are the name of a race of people,but they are still called humans.
Couldn't have put it better myself. I think

Most people think he is an elf, Tingle seems to think he is a fairy, and Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask makes mention that he is human. But if he is human, what's up with his ears?:hmm:
In the game they said he is Hylian so obiviously he is Hylian!
Geez Louis People!
Hylians are not human!
Gerudos are not Human!
Skeikah are not human!
Humans are human. It's not a hard concept to grasp.
Well, I think it's pretty obvious it varies from game to game.
- In LoZ and AoL he is most likely Hylian. We are never told of his roots, but since all people migrated north of Hyrule into a new land, then I guess you can consider him to be from that country, depending in what era of Hyrule's history he was born.
- In ALttP, MC, and FSA he is most likely Hylian. Although we don't know his exact ancestry, he does have an uncle. However, we don't know either of ancestry so they could have come from a distant land.
- In OoT and MM he IS Hylian. He was born of a Hylian woman, though he is raised Kokiri.
- In Wind Waker and PH he is from Outset Island. If you consider The Great Sea part of or a new constituted Hyrule, and take knowledge in the fact that most of the denizens of the Great Sea must have ancestry from Hyrule, then I suppose you can classify him as Hyrulian, but to the best of our knowledge he is nothing more than Outsettian or Great Sea-ese.
- In TP he is from Ordon. Now, you can classify him as Ordonian, but we actually don't know his origins. He lives alone in Ordon with no direct relatives, so he could have a similar background to OoT Link... but it's never mentioned.
And a final note, even though the different Links may all have different roots and homes, and some may be born outside of Hyrule, all Links are apparently linked by blood of the Great Legendary Knights of the original Hyrule. So in some cases, though Link may not be prodominantly Hylian, he always has some Hylian blood in him.
That's a good point. I never noticed that.I don't believe he is an Ordonian, actually. Look at his ears, and the rest of his townsfolk. He has pointy ears, while the rest of them have more humanoid, round ears. Is there an Explanation?
Because... all Hylian's have point ears?Link is human, but his race is known as Hylian. I don't really know exactly why he has pointy ears though.
I'm sorry, but this had to be quoted again for truth.And don't go by Tingle's judgment he's a nut case.
