I think her real name should have been "Claire," but it's alright. Maybe she'll own a bake shop someday and sell eclairs... LOL

You do know the fate of A l'cie is (SPOILER)that they turn into a crystal when their mission is completed right?

[SuperMillionaire]

Yes, I know... LOL, this just really makes me laugh.

I hope the game lets me change her name so I can make it Cupcake. Eclairs are gross.

You cannot rename her. Otherwise the characters couldn't call her "Lightning" or "Light".

How is lightning translated into eclair in French? I get la foudre.

I misread that as la fondue, which only made things funnier.

Kooladria. Eclair is a lame name. It's like they were really hungry when they were thinking of character names.

Indeed, Shiny.

Eclair is a super-cute name and my interest in Lightning just spiked.

[SuperMillionaire]

Do you also like the pastry, Momiji?

[Momiji]

Sure, why not.
