i vote aeris because it just is.......cooler.
Both are legitimate transliterations of the original name in Japanese, but I like the sound of Aeris better.
Aeris. Aerith sounds like you have a lisp.

Aerith - it seems more, suiting. Like Air head and death in one word. Which sums up her character.

I like Aerith better. In fact, whenever I see "Aeris," I just think "Aerith" in my mind. It just fits.
I only use Aerith when I feel particularly "fanboy"
At all other times, I'm fine with Aeris. I swing both ways though *wink*
It depends on if I want to use her name in the possessive tense.
Aerith's looks better than Aeris' or Aeris's
I prefer calling her Quistis, but that's just me.
Aeris because it sound better than Aerith.
I caller her Areis because I am not used to seeing Areith as her name.
Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you pronounce them the same way. :)Quote:

It's pronounced the same way in Japanese; since Japanese doesn't have a 'th' sound they often use 'su'.
Like the surname 'Smith' comes out 'Su-Mi-Su'.
I pronounce Aeris distinctly different from Aerith when I say it out loud in English.
I knew her name should be Aerith long before I played the game.
I even changed her name to Aerith the first time I played.
I still can't think of her as anything but aeris xD
