[Firenjar]

Yuna: Kimarhi doesn't say much
Kimarhi(Tidus): not say much? i never shut up you inconsiderate bitch!!!

You could name him "I" or it would be funny to name him Chappu lol.

Just for pure irony.

To be honest, I thought the fact his name couldn't be spoken really annoying. They should've just made it so you couldn't change his name and so everyone reffered to him as "Tidus".

Or simply "Son of Jecht" or "Lady Yuna's Guardian". Even in X-2, people always refer to him in third person.

But I believe it's pronounced "Tee-duss" since his Japanese name is Tida (meaning "Sun" in the Okinawan dialect) and his voice-actor James Arnold Taylor also pronounces it as "Tee-duss" during interviews.

Name him 'Old man'.

Old man: 'I thought I sensed my old man there.'

[PuPu]

Basically, you can hear his name spoken if you use any word or name in FFX's script.

But with Sir Guardian, Shelinda was referring to him like it was his actual name like Yuna refers to Auron as Sir Auron. That's kinda what I meant with my post.

Call him: Guy from Kilika

Bickson
"Who are you supposed to be?"
Graav
"Ah, I remember him. Guy from Kilika."

Just play Kingdom Hearts, Wakka calls him 'Tee-dus'. Though I've heard that in KH2, Selphie calls him 'Tie-dus'. It's a mystery that will never be explained.

Selphie's voice-actress nailed it wrong.

Also in an early review of FFX by Electronic Gaming Monthly September 2001, they noted out that it's pronounced "Tee-duss". :mog:

That would have to be one of the Besaid Aurochs before Yuna does the Sending. Also talk to one of the Guados in Guadosalam. He'll say his name in words and not audio.

i don't care how it's properly pronounced, i'm still gonna call hbim tie-dus

[N8V_Tidus25]

i heard it on the commercial pronounced as tee-dus

maybe we should just name him "sin"

"Because he is never directly referred to by name during audible dialogue (but is referred to by name in text-only dialogue) — due to the player having the option to change his default name — the pronunciation of his name among fans is sometimes unclear. His name as featured in Final Fantasy X is pronounced "Tee-dus." This was confirmed in dialogue from Kingdom Hearts — which featured the character in a cameo — and by interviews with James Arnold Taylor, Tidus' English voice actor. More recently, this pronunciation was used by the narrator of the History of Final Fantasy featurette (included with Final Fantasy XII Collector's Edition) in the portion covering Final Fantasy X. In Kingdom Hearts II, however, Selphie Tilmitt pronounces his name "Tie-dus," which has led to more confusion amongst fans."-- a quote from wikipedia

So either way, it's pronounced 'Tee-dus' mostly, but I, however, will forever call him 'Tie-dus'. After all, I named my rat after him, and we pronounce my rats name 'Tie-dus'

This thread is way overdue for a snide remark.
