Salsa? Good Lord why? Ah, our first noble princess daughter. We will name her Reina. Beautiful. The second....well.....I kind of like the taste of Tostitos with salsa so ya, Salsa's good. No wonder she ran away!!!

It's funny that all of them are from FFV because I was going to say Bartz.

Sarisa is a much better translation of her name. :p

Butz is an awesome name, because he travels with a party of three girls, and one of them's underage, and who knows what's going on in the inn when the screen blacks out?

Fun nights of Scrabble of course. What were you thinking?

Let's face it, Lenna/Reina aside, the rest of the FFV cast has quite the bizarre roster of names. Krile is especially bad.

It's sad, but that is so true. Butz, Krile, Salsa, Enkidu, Gogo, STELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAA...all weird names.

I always pronounce Krile as "Cry-lee", just 'cause Krile sounds bad. I mean, I know she's from another world, but c'mon...

Who wants to bet Drogan came up because someone on the production team was dyslexic?

It's a weird name, even by Mesopotamian standards. :p

Enkidu is a cool name. HOWEVER! OMG roflorz there's a character named "Butz"? hahaha

I'm pretty sure that Butz played the Exciting game of Life! :jokey:

Butz traded out Scrabble for Boggle. He still plays Trivial Pursuit though.

No, I still feel XIII is in the running as numero uno. Two people are named after elements which is a naming scheme Nomura has overused. One is a flavor, one is a concept, and Sahz has about the only decent name. At least V has some personality and humor to it. :p

Wakka and Lulu are also terrible names. I keep thinking about Fozzie Bear and Hawaii whenever I hear their names.

... okay okay, that's a mistranslation (and a horrible one), so that doesn't count.

Uhh... I have to say Butz. Or Guy. For they sound ridiculous/effortless, respectively.

Salsa is pretty ridiculous. I agree with Momiji that only Lenna/Reina had anything close to a consistently non-terrible set of names. I never had much of a problem with Krile though!

Salsa is reasonable considering the amount of japanese names in Anime named after foods.

Butz on the other hand...

I never really thought about it but now that it's mentioned, yeah V does seem to roll the carnival of godawful names. But I think XIII has it beat:

Let's not forget that one of the guys has a woman's name!

I always pronounced it Kre-lee, which kinda sounds nice in my head.
