There's nothing wrong with a "normal" name. Terra kicked ass ;P
I don't think Terra is a normal or average name in my opinnion sorry i offended you.
It's a reference to FFI and FFIII where you also have princesses named Sarah.Quote:

i know what u mean...i was kinda disapointed too...she suits garnet way more
Not offended. I was just yanking your chain ^_^ I like the more common names Square picks for girls. But I do also like the more eccentric/exotic names. Celes was cool. And Rydia (even though that's more than likely a mis-translation, I'm inclined to think they did it on purpose just to make it sound unique. Which I think was a good call).Quote:

When you have too many fancy names, it gets annoying and overwrought. Like bad fanfiction.
I will always remeber Garnet's real name because it's astually the same as mine, spelling and all, I hate it when people spell (SPOILER)Sarah as Sara It really bugs me... it looks prettier with an "h" any way. They ARE differnet names, just said the same... so her name is (SPOILER)Sarah ok? How hard is it to add an "h" to a name? Are people really THAT lazy?
And Terra is a great name, I wanted to change my name to that 'cause my dad's name is Terry and Terra sounds like my name and looks alot like my dad's. I know, stuipd reason. XD Tara looks more like it sound be said "Tar-a" to me.
Tara and Terra look like they would be spoken in completely different ways. And isn't Tina more accurate as far as Terra's name goes, anyway?
I digress.
Back (somewhat) on topic - I really like the particular spelling of the name in question without the "h" added to the end. However, to each their own, but as far as Final Fantasy IX is concerned, only one spelling is truly "correct", I suppose. In any case it's shown all of one time in the game.
Oh, before I forget, thanks for the screencap, Squall of SeeD.
I managed to beat the game this evening, finally, and I wish the Elidolon Wall segment had been expanded on more. Oh, well. It was cute, and the extra stuff about Eiko was interesting, too.
Is it even explicitly stated in the game that in is in fact her name? I know that it is and I did manage to do the sidequest myself, but it's more inferred than anything else, right?
Just musing out loud.
That's what I said n.n and as you Tina, Tina is the translation of her name, and Terra is what they decided her to be in the american, so yes, Tina is more accurate.Quote:

Garnet: My thoughts exactly, I think the reference to FFI and FIII is a wonderful birthname.Quote:
