Freya... Fray-Uh
Eiko... Ay-Ko
Quina... Kee-Na
Amarant... Am-Mar-Ant
Beatrix... Bee-A-Tricks
Brahne... Brawn
Kuja... Coo-Juh

wrong or not, it is hard to get free from habit...

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

Zidane - zee-tahn

:confused:That's the correct pronounciation, based on the phonetic Japanese spelling of his name. The D in Zidane is misleading, like the double F in Yuffie.
