This is a common thread in the General forum, but I think there are a few names in FFTA that are a bit difficult to say.

Ivalice and Marche are 2 examples. I always pronounced them like:

"I"-vah-liss and Marsh

However I was on gametrailers.com and I saw they had a FFTA trailer with real people posing as Marche, Ritz and Mewt. The pronounced Ivalice and Marche like:

EE-vah-lees and Mar-shay

How have you pronounced these two? What other names have you had problems saying?

I used to say Marche like "marsh", and Ivalice so it rhymes with "eye chalice", but I gradually switched over to the commercial's "Marsh-ay" and "evil lease".

I pronounce Ivalice "eye valice" and sound out the "ch" in Mache so it it sounds like "March". Maybe I'll start saying "March-ay". That's the proper way to pronounce a 'e' when it's pronunsable.

I have no standard pronunciation for Marche, and since I name my main character Skyblade, I don't really need one. Ivalice I have always pronounced to rhyme with chalice, as omnitarian said.
