Does anyone else refer Red XIII as Nanaki? I've always done so after my first beating of the game, as he's one of my favorite characters and I feel it's proper to refer to him with his real name. Whenever I replay the game, I always name him Nanaki now and forget Red XIII.
well me i just call him red XIII, but i do like nanaki its a cool name.
I stick with Nanaki, it sounds natural and Red XIII is the name Hojo gave him. i hate hojo so i just named him Nanaki.
I use nanaki every time also
which ever one that i think of first.which is ussally red xii but i lke naniki better
I'm only on my second playthrough of VII, but I did name him Nanaki this time. It's a much cooler name than Red XIII.
I call him Nanaki and Red, but I never really bother with the "XIII" part.
nanaki never stuck thru with me...so Red XIII for me
Nanaki for me too.
Similarly, I call frog from CT Glenn. I like calling people by their real names.
I always call him RedXIII. I dont like the name nanaki.
i think everybody call shim nanaki, except the cruel evil one that will grow up to be experiMENTAL scientists! damn them!
I love Nanaki.
I was so pissed off yesterday though. I have two cats, one ginger/red and one tabby. Thinking back, why oh why didn't I call him Nanaki? I'm so stupid =(
Oh well, I'll just have to get a Nanaki when I'm older...
One time I did call him Bananaki, but I just call him Nanaki now.
[I]You know guys, i prefer Red XII than Nanaki although Nanaki is his real name.
And you know why?
Well in greek "Νάνος"(Nanos) means dwarf and a little dwarf is a "Nanaki"
So everytime i say nanaki i usually laugh so i prefere Red XII.
I call him simba... because he will one day grow to be king of the jungle, and avenge mufasa's murder.
Light Mage: "So we can Call Nanaki 'Red Dwarf' from now on?"
I like that show "Red Dwarf"
I call him Josh.
"I'm Nanaki, also known as Nanaki".
some amusing red XIII names: rupert, tito, kane, box, hank, bennett
I call him Yellow V
I love the star wars reference, so I think I should call him anakin.
you know... (n)anaki anaki(n)
I usually call him Nanaki. On a similar note, how many people call Cait Sith (SPOILER)Reeve?
I never knew what Shinra member he actually was, heh, that's a good idea!
i did the last time i played it thorugh, i think it suits him very well and it makes much more sense that the characters call him that after cosmo canyon, plus it must be hard for the characters saying 13 eveytime they say his name :choc:
I did. :cool:
Light Mage: "I call Cait Sith by his realname since Barret busted him on the Highwind."
Light Mage: "I also called Cid either 'Kirk' or 'Ahab' with his spear... (the 'captain' reference)."
For the longest time I read his name as Red "Ex-three". I don't know why I did that. But now it's buried deep into my memory banks so that's how i'll always know him.
I call him Nanaki because it's his name and it seems right
heh....my last playthrough, when I went to rename him, I couldn't remember his name (Nanaki) for the life of me!! And I didn't feel like leaving the couch to check this site, and I really didn't want to call him by Hojo's specimen name (RedXIII), so figured I'd call him Lionheart (He is something like a great cat, afterall). It fitted him perfectly.
Who's Nanaki?
Seriously? Nanaki is Red XIII's real name.
'twas a joke. If you name Red XIII Nanaki, when you go to Cosmo Canyon Cloud says "Who's Nanaki?"
"Nanaki is Nanaki, that's his name."
Yeah, everytime I've played the game after my first time, i've called him Nanaki.
I thought Red XIII sounded better.
Either ass face or Red XIII like hes supposed to be called. Never Nanakai.
xD My mom called him that. But I started to call him X I I instead of Red 13 xD
I call him Nanaki. Just like I call Cait Sith Reeve and Cid Captain.
I called him Red XIIId...
i called him oja i also called tifa = tiffany barret = barnet aires = sakura yiffie = ruby and caitsith Kit kat (Haven't gotten the other two yet)
This is what my brother calls them for no apparent reason.
Barret = Carrot
Tifa = Feotus
Vincent= Fred
Cloud = Cloo Ud
Yuffie = Yiffie
Aeris = The Blonde one
Nanaki = Green XI
Cait Sith= Peice of *$@!
[QUOTE=DarkLord]
Aeris = The Blonde one
[QUOTE]
Ask him why he called aeris the blonde one when she has brown hair will ya
I call Red-Nanaki, Cait Sith is Reeve and Cloud... well I call him Cloud...
Depends on how I feel. Sometimes I'll name him Nanaki but still call him Red XIII anyway.
I can't decide whether to call her "TEH AERIS" or "Ded bitch" in my next game...
I sometimes jumble p the names
e.g.
Cloud-Tifa
Barret-Aeris
ect
Its fun and confusing.
I always name characters their real or discovered names after I learn them.
Yeah i usually call him Nanaki...Also, instead of Barret, I've named him Shaft.
Cloud: Cheese
Tifa: Honkers
Aeris: Dick
Barret: Cracker
Cid: Sally
Yuffie: AznHo
Vincent: emo
Nanaki: Woof
Cait Sith: FatassMog
If I could name Sephiroth I would name him HuggyBear
I did on the second time around but it sounds stupid when they say "your name is Nanaki"
Red...Just Red. "Red thirteen" is just a mouthful... and Nanaki sounds dumb.
Trust me... I think you need help...Quote:

I always name him "Nanaki" somehow the name "Red XIII" doesn't appeal to me.
don't you get confuesed?Quote:

Called him Nanaki when replayed.
I also wanted to call him Failed Experiment, but maybe it was too cruel.
(+ I think the name is too long)
(SPOILER)Wouldn't that be Cloud..?Quote:

It's funny how he clearly states that Red XIII is a name that has no meaning, so the group ends up calling him it anyways. Plus Hojo gave him that name, and well, he's a jerk.
In conclusion, calling him Nanaki just seams to be the right thing to do, in my opinion.
i tried calling him Lil Puppy. it wasn't as funny as i thought it'd be but it was alright. got a giggle in or two.
i DID name Cloud "Sephiroth" though. that was funny haha.
that is funny Sephiroth Vs. Sephiroth he'd be fighting him selfQuote:

I just call him fail.Quote:
I also wanted to call him Failed Experiment
I think calling him "Nanaki" is a little ballsy.
I shall call him Squishy and he shall be my Squishy.
