    You say that like it's a bad thing.

    Me? I'd name my kid Jenova. It's probably a good thing I'm not having kids.

    If I ever ran across someone who was named something very obviously FF-ish like Sephiroth or Wakka, I would laugh in their face. No joke, I'd point and laugh.

    The only FF name I kinda sorta like is Terra, but even then I'm pretty much set on the names I want for my kids and none of them include FF names.

    I think my kids would like to be named for themselves, rather than fictional characters. It's different if you name them after, say, Daphne du Maurier's Rebecca, but I'm named mainly for relatives and I hate it.

    I'm never having kids, but if I ever had a daughter.... I wouldn't mind naming her Selphie. I think it's a cute name.

    Other then that I don't think I would name a kid after a video game character.

    It would be cute to name my girl Yuna or Ashe X3 but if i do get married and have a girl i would really name her Sassy XD I know not Final Fantasy but i would probly want to name her that.

    I like Rinoa, it just doesn't flow good with other girl names I like xD

    Maria - Kinda plain
    Guy - Good old-fashioned name
    Leon- Doesn't really suit me, but it's acceptable xD
    Cecil - Old-fashioned
    Kain - Has some bad connotations :}
    Edward - Doesn't suit me
    Cid - Doesn't suit me
    Rosa - Too plain xD
    Rydia - Hey sure
    Lenna/Reina - I like Lenna
    Faris - It depends if ferris wheels are still around by then.
    Terra - I'd spell it Tara
    Edgar - Edgar is awesome as poop but the name is kinda old fashioned xD it makes me think of dweeby little boys.
    Gogo - Adlai is a good solid name.
    Mog - It might be a good nickname
    Tifa - It'd be a cute nickname for a Tiffany
    Nanaki - The whole foreign sounding names thing goes out the window when you aren't actually foreign.
    Aeris/Aerith - It just doesn't sound as pretty as it looks
    Cait Sith - The gaelic would laugh at me
    Sephiroth - hasn't that been done?
    Riona - Yes:}
    Zidane - No soccer players plz
    Garnet - No nouns plz
    Auron - could you imagine a little boy named auron? xD
    Lulu - kinda old fashioned in the 'c'mere little slave girl' way.
    Ashe - no nouns PLZ.
    Fran - I've always hated that name xD
    Balthier - too regal :}

    Leon- That's my dad's name, so no
    Hilda- Perhaps, I doubt it though

    Tellah- Hah! No
    Yang- not unless I name another child Yin

    Cara/Krile- Neither of those two I really like
    Galuf- no
    Terra - yes, I love that name

    [QUOTE=rubah;2324553]Zidane - No soccer players plz
    /QUOTE]

    Are they pronounced the same? The French football player is ZID-AN, while I've always thought the FFIX character's name was said ZID-AYN. If that makes any sense at all.

    Nope, I wouldn't do it. If I was forced to do it, though, I guess Sara (FFs I, III), Maria (FFs II, VI), Jessie (FFVII), Tina (FFVI) and Vincent (FFVII) could do. Maybe Lenna (FFV) and Rosa (FFIV) too.

    Oh, and naming your child Sephiroth isn't as bad as naming him Exdeath or X-Death.
