Character names.

[Xartex]

I'v only changed the name of one character ever, that was Red XIII, I changed it to his real name the second tima I played, Nanaki

 

[Luis]

I never changed their names...I liked the way they were, and my brothet also changed only the name of Red XIII for Nanaki, the second time he played.

 

[Max the Man]

I didn't really do anything with their names... I changed Aeris's name once to Eris, cause I felt like it (which in retrospect is kind of an oxymoron)

 

[Spiff]

Sometimes I give them names of people I know either nicknames or thier real names and have them go on an adventure.

 

[FFnut]

I never changed their names...I liked the way they were, and my brothet also changed only the name of Red XIII for Nanaki, the second time he played.

If that happens, when your characters get to Cosmo Canyon, they're effectively learning that Nanaki's name is Nanaki. Pretty funny if you ask me.

 

[ShadowHeart]

Yeah.

Cloud: "Who's Nanaki?"

Hellooo, you've been calling him Nanaki the whole game so far!

 

[Spiff]

Maybe that takes a specific sense of humor, but I don't find that funny. More a little stupid, but that's me.

I've never ever had Red XIII's name Red XIII, I always named him Nanaki, and its also funny when you find COsmo Canyon, because the guy in the front he'll originally say, Red XIII is Nanaki, but he'll say Nanaki is Nanaki, when you name him Nanaki.
I'm saying Nanaki too much huh.

 

[ShadowHeart]

You named him Nanaki on your first time too? How did you even know about it then?

 

[Totorosama]

Interesting (The one above). I usually keep their names the way they are, although I do make variations. For example Cloud was once "CloudBill," Eiko accidentally became "Eik," and so on. Also, I changed Dagger into Alexia (She is from Alexandria...) when you had to give her an undercover name.

 

[Jaxom]

i don not chage the names as i enjoy their original names

 

[Midnight Angel]

Hey I usually don't rename characters the first time through the second or third time I will I remember I called everyone Anita once even the guys lol (My names Anita) it was funny cause my sister came in when I was playing and I was switching characters over in the party and she was like "Am I seeing things or are those characters all named Anita" I was like "They're all named Anita even the guys" lol it was funny but I didn't play that game for long.

Yes I've done the naming everybody Sephiroth as well except I made one have all capital letters another had all little letters, one had a capital at the beginning and so one I think one was even spelt out to be Sephiroth with symbols.

 

[Zeromus_X]

ive considered naming them all after bleach characters. (ive also noticed alot of anime characters have spiky hair and big swords...)

cloud- ichigo
aerith- rukia
tifa-orihime
red XIII- mr. yoruichi (would that fit?)
barret- chad
vincent- uryu
cait sith- yuichi
yuffie- that one dynamite girl...i forgot her name...

or perhaps rave master (another spiky haired, giant sword wielding main character)

cloud-haru
aerith- that one lady that dies..( )
tifa- elie
vincent- musicaa
barret- not sure
red XIII- that dragon dude...
cait sith- plue
yuffie- not sure\

havent read rave master in a while, but i think america has up to 16 volumes so far...youd have to torture me to watch the dub. (no blood, swearing, horrible voices and bad theme song? sorry, no thanks.)

 

[Avathar]

reminds me of FF9:

Vivi-Pointy
Steiner-Rusty
Freya-Ratchel
Eiko-Brat
Amarant-Red

And with Garnet, she grabs a dagger, she asks what's this called. Zidane says that's a dagger. Garnet goes mmnn, dagger, huh? (type sarah) Garnet says Zidane, how about you call me Sarah?

 

[neokiller]

I Dont Like Changing Their Name Cause Wn Researching I Get Confused About Who Is Who

 

[Phoenix Flame]

***SPOILERS****


The only characters I've changed are those who's names you find out later.
ie Red XIII - Nanaki
Cait Sith - Reeves
Cloud to Clone # 69 J/K!

 

[Black Mage]

I just change Cloud's name to my real name and then leave everyelse the same...unless I want to have some fun then i'll change their names to something funny lol.

I did that too BM, but with a twist.
Ex.> My name is John, so I would name him Juanito. Just something a little comical to josh it up a little. But I usually just left him as Cloud, or Cloud S.
