I just want to know what you think...

[Jsb01]

My sister named her baby Rinoa... any thoughts?

[Venom]

Not really, seeing as I never think.

[Jsb01]

...fair enough

[Fantasy Fan]

Rinoa eh? I guess she'll have a fantasy for scar-face.

[Bart's Friend Milhouse]

your sister or her final fantasy loving boyfriend?

[rubah]

I think rinoa is a pretty name:D

[Cz]

Personally I don't like the idea of naming children after video game characters, but Rinoa is quite a nice name in its own right, so it's perfectly acceptable.

[RPJesus]

That's sort of hideous... in a strange way. Because it's actually an OK name. Although it's sounds too much like... something. Like tools or something.

Course, won't it ruin FFVIII for her, if she comes to play it? It'd be too strange having such an important character have the same name.

[Zeldy]

I think its a lovely name! ^___^

Imagine if you didn't know what Final Fantasy was
And then look at the name 'Rinoa'
I think its cute

Thought you'd like to read that, Its scary.

BUT

Rinoa is different. That is a good name for a child. Sephiroth is not.

[~SapphireStar~]

Thats mega cool man. The kids going to be retro material once she gets to school!

[Reles]

I never really liked the name Rinoa, but atleast it isn't entirely weird. I know a girl named Aaris (said like some American's say Aeris) but she was named after an aunt.

[Jsb01]

your sister or her final fantasy loving boyfriend?

My sister, I don't think he had ever played Final Fantasy VIII until he met her.

[Roto13]

I read in EGM about someone who named his daughter Rinoa.

LunarWeaver knows what happened next...

[Old Manus]

I just hope she doesn't end up being possessed by some witch from the future and ending up in a coma for most of the time.

[Craig]

Well I think naming kids after computer game characters is wrong. But Final Fantasy aside, Rinoa isn't a bad name.

[StarChild]

i don't think i would personally name my child after a video game character...but it is a good name.

[Spatvark]

If there's any irony in the world, she'll have a huge nose.

[Rye]

Well I think naming kids after computer game characters is wrong. But Final Fantasy aside, Rinoa isn't a bad name.

Yeah, Rinoa isn't too bad of a name. It's pretty.

[Twisted Tinkerbell]

It's a nice name, not what I'd call my kid, but nice.

[Psychotic]

There's nothing wrong with naming your kids after video game characters. I intend to name my firstborn Donkey Kong, so good for you!

[Rye]

There's nothing wrong with naming your kids after video game characters. I intend to name my firstborn Donkey Kong, so good for you!

And your second born? xD

[Psychotic]

There's nothing wrong with naming your kids after video game characters. I intend to name my firstborn Donkey Kong, so good for you!

And your second born? xDWell, I have two names in mind, either Seifer Topaz Magenta Aluminum Winter Pineapple or Bruce. I'm kinda leaning towards Seifer Topaz Magenta Aluminum Winter Pineapple at the moment.

[Rye]

Topaz was my cat's name! Good choice! :D

[Arcee]

Rinoa works on its own, with or without knowing its FF "source."

[Shlup]

Eh, it's a fine name. She could've picked a worse one. My fiance wants to name our first daughter after a Zelda character. :p

[Levian]

Rinoa isn't the worst video game name out there. There's always Zell's Fists of Fury.

edit:



Eh, it's a fine name. She could've picked a worse one. My fiance wants to name our first daughter after a Zelda character.


There's this cool boss named Twinmold.

you mean alyuminnium?

[Psychotic]

you mean alyuminnium?No, my dear All Is On, "Aloominum" is more beautiful and profound than the collective works of Ludwig van Beethoven.

EDIT: And probably Bach's too.

[Shlup]

He wants "Saria" but I'll be sure to mention your suggestion. xD

[rubah]

it sounds pensive.

[Elite Lord Sigma]

With certain names, I see no problem with naming people after video game characters (or any fictional character, for that matter). I start drawing the line when we get to names like Kadaj and Ultimecia.

[Leeza]

Rinoa is a decent enough name and unless someone is into video games, specifically FF, no one is going to even know that she was named after an FF character. :cat:

[41-Inches-Wide]

OMG I have an e-friend who named his son (now a year old), Squall.
They could date someday.

Rinoa's a pretty name but... err.. Squall is not.
A squall means great gust of wind, right?

[Miriel]

He wants "Saria" but I'll be sure to mention your suggestion. xD
I've never played Zelda before but I think Saria is a pretty name.

[rubah]

names you could get away with:

Maria, Guy, Leon, Cecil, Rosa, Cara, Lenna, Terra, Edgar, Tifa, Vincent, Cid, Irvine, Selphie, Vivi (for a girlxD), beatrix, tidus, lulu, ashe, fran

have fun!

[escobert]

I'm going to name my kid emerald weapon. NO LIE!

[Mittopotahis]

I remember in year 7, I was on the Student Council, and each of us had a 'buddy class', which we went to on Tuesday arvos and got all their suggestions. There was a little asain girl in the class called Rinoa. She would have been born before Final Fantasy VIII, so I don't think there was any connection. But I think Rinoa is a pretty name :D

[Jsb01]

names you could get away with:

Maria, Guy, Leon, Cecil, Rosa, Cara, Lenna, Terra, Edgar, Tifa, Vincent, Cid, Irvine, Selphie, Vivi (for a girlxD), beatrix, tidus, lulu, ashe, fran

have fun!

Most of those are comman names anyway.

[eestlinc]

I want to name my son Butz.

[Jsb01]

Squall would be kind of cool, but it would get awkward with a cousin named Rinoa.

he better not be a killer machine

my point exactly ^_^

[Twilight Edge]

Rinoa's cool.I'm going to name mine with FF characters with a few minor adjustments!

If it's a boy...

Clash-Cloud
Serapht/Saga-Squall
Zett-Zell
Sephiroth-Ummm...that's too cool a name to change...(c'mon,conqueror of the world,who'd not think that's cool?)

If it's a girl...

Aerine-Aeris
Yukie-Yuffie
Tieja-Tifa
Yuna-meh,can't change it,too pretty...

[DeathKnight]

Awesome! better than: Amy, Tiffany, Jennifer, etc.

[Setzer Gabianni]

I'm naming my first child Wakka, if it's a boy, Rikku, if it's a girl.

..

yarly.

~Setzer Gabianni

[Jojee]

Hahaha yes Butz or Wakka please xD Maybe Butz Wakka!

A squall means great gust of wind, right? Ah man... *dies* :p

Hehee Rinoa is an okay name, xD but naming your kid after a video game character.. I guess there is a lot of expectations/ a lot to live up to ! ^_-

[Perducci]

I'm gonna call my kid Quina and feed it lots.

[boris no no]

Its all in the eyes, that baby is evil. Theres no doubting that.
Me being a critic and I kinda don't like all these modern names (yes I am an old woman)
Although Rinoa IS a pretty name and is ok I guess xD
Calling her Yuffie, Questis or Celes....now that would be kinda sad

[Jojee]

Yuffie or Quistis is uncommon and not that pretty xD But Celes is a really pretty name! I always liked the name Celeste, and Celes = Celeste except without the t ;)

[Fire_Emblem776]

I think rinoa is a pretty name:D

^_^ I think so too ^_^:D

[Levian]

I'm naming my kid O'aka the XXIV. I'm going to have him learn this crazy accent too. :cool:

[SammieBabe]

There's nothing wrong with naming your kids after video game characters. I intend to name my firstborn Donkey Kong, so good for you!

WTF?! If you're not going to name your kids after you, why the hell should I name mine after you?!:mad2:


Incidentally, Rinoa isn't a name I'd choose for my daughter, but whatever blows your skirt up...

[DeathKnight]

Psychotic has a skirt?

[Spatvark]

He borrowed it from Britt.

[Mittopotahis]

xD Maybe Butz Wakka!
That sounds more like a porn star name.

[YTDN]

Oh well. Calling your child after an FF character can't be worse than calling your child Fifi Trixibelle or Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily Hutchence. Someone actually called their kids that.

[Resha]

It's a very pretty name! Regardless of whether it comes from a game character or not -- could've easily been the other way round, what?

[Dell]

Maybe 12 years later, I get to name my kid:
Boy: Amarant - I will paint his hair Red and I will put clown's nose to his nose and I'll let he fight with Zinedine Zidane instead Zidane Tribal.

Girl: Ultimecia or Edea - I will make-up her face and I will input some new trend and I will send her to Hogwarts to learn magic.

Believe me, Ultimecia is a great name!

[YuffiezBf]
