name translation worse than Aeris

I still have yet to see how Zack is a bad translation of a name that was meant to be an American one anyway. Zack was where they got the name from.

Knowlespole? Was that a bad translation? What was it in Japanese for those who have played the Japanese version?

"Knowlespole" was a thouroughly embarrassing mistranslation of a phrase that was already in blatant English--noosu pooru, or "North Pole."

the name zack did kinda annoy me. it made me think of some surfer guy, maybe tidus ought to have been called zack
