    Who wants to bet Drogan came up because someone on the production team was dyslexic?

    I hate the name Krile. I don't even know how to pronounce it.

    It's sad, but that is so true. Butz, Krile, Salsa, Enkidu, Gogo, STELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAA...all weird names.
    What.

    You, sir, are a disgrace.
    It's a weird name, even by Mesopotamian standards.

    Fun nights of Scrabble of course. What were you thinking?
    I'm pretty sure that Butz played the Exciting game of Life!

    Butz traded out Scrabble for Boggle. He still plays Trivial Pursuit though.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    No, I still feel XIII is in the running as numero uno. Two people are named after elements which is a naming scheme Nomura has overused. One is a flavor, one is a concept, and Sahz has about the only decent name. At least V has some personality and humor to it.

    Wakka and Lulu are also terrible names. I keep thinking about Fozzie Bear and Hawaii whenever I hear their names.

    ... okay okay, that's a mistranslation (and a horrible one), so that doesn't count.

    Uhh... I have to say Butz. Or Guy. For they sound ridiculous/effortless, respectively.

    Salsa is pretty ridiculous. I agree with Momiji that only Lenna/Reina had anything close to a consistently non-terrible set of names. I never had much of a problem with Krile though!

    Salsa is reasonable considering the amount of japanese names in Anime named after foods.

    Butz on the other hand...
    Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
    Have a nice day!!

    I never really thought about it but now that it's mentioned, yeah V does seem to roll the carnival of godawful names. But I think XIII has it beat:

    Let's not forget that one of the guys has a woman's name!

    I always pronounced it Kre-lee, which kinda sounds nice in my head.
