Character names.

[Arkacia]

A post I've just done in another thread made me think of asking this.

One of the things I love about this game is the ability to change the names of all the characters. I do change them every game, but always use the same set of new names and now find it hard sometimes to remember their real ones .

I was wondering who uses the original names and who changes them, and if you do change do you always use the same set? If so share them .

My set is....

Cloud - Tarin
Barret - Garron
Tifa - Saria
Aeris - Kari
Red XIII - Neko
Cait Sith - Barnham
Cid - Ranger
Yuffie - Marissa
Vincent - Jamison

Well i don't change their names...and if i do (big IF) then i always have the main character as Wez because that's how i like to spell my name

Last time i played i think i changed their names but i didnt remember to wut. Next time i play tho i think ill keep the OG names.

I first played FFVII a few years ago and I kept the original character names (I only got to Corel Prison). So I made a new file and named them...

Cloud- Demetrius
Barret- Oberon
Tifa- Helena
Yuffie- Viola
Aeris- Hermia
Red XIII- Egeus
Vincent- Pyramus
Cait Sith- Puck
Cid- Lysander

If you wonder why Yuffie's name doesn't quite fit, it's because the only name I could think of from there that would fit her was Peaceblossom. But it didn't fit.

What makes me think you like Shakespeare? Helena, Demetrius, Oberon, Lysander, Pyramuis and Puck? they are all charaters from "A Midsummer Nights dream, am i right?

 

[ShadowHeart]

I always keep the original names

I only changed the names twice. When I played my first RPG (Legend of Legaia), and the main character's name in FFT.

I don't often change the character's original name. Though sometimes I change them the second time through the game.

Anyone finding the game boring? I've got some name-related fun for you. Try renaming everyone the following:

Cloud: Tifa
Barret: Cloud
Tifa: Aeris
Aeris: Cait Sith
Red XIII: Vincent
Cait Sith: Yuffie
Vincent: Cid
Cid: Barret
Yuffie: Red XIII

Naming them like that is just asking for a lot of confusion

 

[Wezzy]

i agree lol

 

[DarkCloud]

Well if your after confusion, try doin this, although its hurts the brain, its absolutley hilarious: Call EVERY character 'Sephiroth', i assure you, if you only play the game to the point of Actually going AFTER Sephiroth, his name will get mentioned alot and its just basically funny. i havnt played all the way through like this though. i suggest giving it a shot for a good laugh.

 

[ShadowHeart]

I've actually thought about doing that just for laughs once

 

[Zeromus_X]

i like naming them characters from my favorite animes. like this:
Cloud-Spike
Barret- Jet
Tifa- Faye
Aeris-Julia
Red-Ein
Yuffie-Judy
Vincent-Edward
Cait Sith- Punch
