My favourite class is the Thief. Something about stealing and using daggers appeals to the inner criminal in me. Zidane and Locke are definitely my favourites. Zidane brought a cool new element with the thief swords which I liked, and having the agility of a monkey is always handy for a thief. Locke is just an all round useful character who always seem to make my squad. If they were ever let down, it was by the FFI thief who couldn't steal. That was a pain.

Blue Mages... I know they're awesome, but I can never bring myself to put in the effort to make them useful. I think I would find it much easier if I just had a list of skills and enemies to learn from before hand.
