Exactly. The issue resides in the fact that some people probably pronounce the real name, while others say the abridged name. That's all.

Since I don't have anything better to do, I might as well list mine.

Locke: "Lock"
Celes: "Sell-es"
Setzer: "Cet-ser"
Umaro: "Ooom-ar-o"
Sabin: "Sabe-in"
Tifa: "Tee-fa"
Aeris: "Air-is"
Cait Sith: "Kate-Sith"
Nanaki: "Nana-Kee"
Bugenhagen: "Boo-gen-hay-gin"
Sephiroth: "Sep-i-roth" (pretty much ignore the "h")
Jenova: "Ji-no-va"
Heidegger: "High-digger"
Seifer: "Sigh-fer"
Laguna: "La-goon-a"
Kiros: "Keer-os"
Ellone: "Ell-own"
Fuujin: "Foo-jin"
Rajjin: "Rajj-in"
Quistis: "Quis-tis"
Leviathan: "Lev-ee-aye-thin"
Quezacotl: "Quay-za-cot-tul"
Bahamut: "Bah-ha-mut"
Zidane: "Zigh-dane"
Vivi: "Vee-Vee"
Steiner: "Sty-ner"
Freya: "Fray-ya"
Amarant: "Ahm-a-rant"
Eiko: "Eee-ko" (like the underrated PS2 game "Ico")
Oglop: "Ogg-lop"
Chocobo: "Choke-o-bo"
Tidus: "Tide-us"
Auron: "Ore-un"
Yojimbo: "Yo-jim-bo"

Tidus: tee-dus

Valefore: val-for

Bahamut: buh-ha-mut

Ixion: ix-i-on

Yojimbo: yo-jim-bo, just the way it's spelled

for everyone who doesn't belive me...i beat the game and all of my friends that beat the game say the same thing.the wrong way:

Tidus: tie-dus (NO)

Valefore: vail-a-fore (NO)

Bahamut: baa-hah-moot (NO)

Ixion: ix-ee-on (NO)

Yojimbo: well,on one tried to explain it.

But those are the proper ways to say it.

Well I always pronounced Yuffie as "Yu-fi". But that may just be me.

Tie-dus(Tidus)
Tee-fu(Tifa)
Air-is(Aeris)
Sid(Cid)
Sa-bin(sabin)
Say-fer(Siefer)
E-freet(Ifrit)
Cho-Ko-Bo(Chocobo)

I still think Tidus is a alternate spelling of Titus, and that kingdom hearts doesn't know what it's talking about^_^ or something.

Anyways, I'd get a demonologist to tell us how to say valefor, and a greek for ixion, after a bit of wikipediaing and pantheon.org-ing.

Here's My list of FFTA:

Marche - Marsh
Doned - Don-ed
Ivalice - I-vah-liss
Nu Mou - New Moo
Bangaa - Bang-gah
Cyril - Seer-ill
Babus - Babe-us

However there was a FFTA commercial aired on television that pronounced Ivalice like (E-vah-lees) and Marche like (Mar-shay) so, We're wrong technically, but I can live with being wrong.

I have an idiot friend who still says Coke-a-bo, instead of Choke-a-bo.
I want to kill him.
