Is Lightning's real name! Check the latest news on the frontsite o:

I think it's a pretty name.

Dia? As in the healing spell? ;)

Yes! Or the HP draining spell depending on what game you prefer.

That's a much, much better name. MUCH much better. Geeze. I hope it's what they refer to her as for the majority of the game.

That's exactly what popped into my mind first thing. Then I started thinking about Walruses.

Wow, didn't think any of us would find out her name until the game actually came out.

EDIT: Wait, how do you know they're not talking about that pigtailed summoner girl?

Because she already has a real name, why does she need two real-sounding names when poor Lightning is just Lightning?

It sounds pretty!

I love my sci-fi FF's, and this game looks so much better than the mediocre-looking FFXII in terms of visual style. And the names suck much less.

Ah man, I read that as Die Walküre.

But I liked XII's visual style and names...:cry:

Isn't Vanille's middle name Dia? I wonder if they're related :O

It's a cool name. Better than Lightning. But not as cool as Robert.

I can't wait until we get some location names! Each name simply sounds so cool. :p

Ah man, I read that as Die Walküre.My first two reactions.

Dia? As in the healing spell? ;)

Before that, it was an undead-killing spell.

It's also Spanish for "day," which still kind of fits the meteorological theme.

Isn't it amusing that Dia means day and Noctis means night. ;)

When Nomura said XIII would be light and Versus XIII would be shadow, I didn't think he would take it this far.

It's Nomura, he loves all these hidden things that pop up everywhere almost as much as he loves belts and zippers :p

I didn't realise her name had been revealed, actually. What is it?

Her name is Oerba Da Vanille I think.

The night/day thing is cool. It's the surname I'm not so keen on. Looks like vulva, or walrus.

I wonder if her real name will have any affect on gameplay? For example, changing her name on the status screen if she abandons her alias, or maybe it will just be an aside like Garnet's real name in Final Fantasy IX?

Where did you find this information? I like the name Dia, and the whole day/night thing with XIII and vXIII, but I'm not too keen on the surname "Walruva." Maybe they'll fix the name in our version so it looks less like a fancy name for a Walrus vulva (I agree with you, The Turk!)

Also, are we sure Dia's her name? Because why is Dia also Oerba's middle name?

And I've been looking closely at the stills lately, and Lightning seriously looks way too much like Cloud. It's kinda freaking me out, not gonna lie.
