so people know how thw names are pronounced. i knew locke was supposed to be pronounced lock but i think lock-ee sounds better because i hate the name lock.although it suits him being a thief*locke hits head*uh... treasure hunter.

Well you're never know how it was supposed to be pronounced since they are all translations and/or renames, thus opinion.

that doesn't mean we can't talk about how others pronounce them. I find it interesting since I never really talk out loud about any ff characters, really.

tare-uh

ed-gar
say-bin
go-go
ooh-mare-oh
sigh-ann
gow

Locke is an actual name. Lock isn't. Woolsey added the e to make it look less stupid. They're prnounced the same, but one is a real name, while the other is a noun. Look it up.

Random trivia time! It is pronounced "Lock" seeing how he is more then likely named after the English Enlightenment thinker John Locke who had it pronounced the same way.

Heh ive never meet another person who calls Locke 'Lock-ee'. Thats cool. I pronounce Sabin as 'Saa-bin' and Celes as Sell-es. Gau is a weird one, I usually pronounce it as 'Ga-oo'. The rest of them I say the same as boys from the dwarf.

my brother's friend's sister's (wow!) name is celeste or something. and is pronounced sell-est. so i just called her sell-es. say-bin , lock, sai-an , terror when said in slang as terrah , gaw , stray-go , oo-mar-oh , gogo is easy , setzer is same , edgar is a real name , shadow is simple , realm , and mog

I say SEE-leez, TAIR-ah (hard A, like hair-ah with a T), GAW (I thought Gau would be self-explanatory, G with an AU sound), SAY-bin, SAI-an, and OO-ma-roh.

I say "Lockee", even though it's supposed to be pronounced "lock". But no doubt supposed to be spelled Locke, because Lock just would be dumb.

I'm from Sweden, so I tend to pronounce most of them in a Swedish manner. :D

Kinda like this:

['tera]
['loke]
['edgar]
['za:bin]
(shadow)
['zeles]
['zajn]
[gau]
['zet,ser]
['ztra:go]
[relm]
[mog]
[u'ma:ro]
['gogo]
