Lightning's real name... (spoilers)

[SuperMillionaire]

I heard that Lightning's real name is Eclair Farron. The word "eclair" is actually French for "lightning," but is more commonly associated with a type of pastry found in bakeries. This makes me wonder: did her parents once own a bakery shop?

"Mmmmmm... eclairs... delicious!" LOL

[Vermachtnis]

Eclair makes me think of the Princess in La Pucelle. Which had a bunch of food named people.

[SuperMillionaire]

Hmph. Apparently, Tetsuya Nomura is starting to pick even weirder names named after food instead of the sky. Man, his character names are extremely exotic!

[Psychotic]

Hahaha, Eclair. Oh dear.

[Levian]

Hahaha, Eclair. Oh dear.

That was my exact reaction. xD

I still can't forget that picture you sent me of that moustached german shoving an eclair in his mouth.

[Psychotic]

That wasn't his mouth.

[Madame Adequate]

It does seem rather... whimsical. Much more in keeping with the sort of thing NIS would do. I can see why she prefers to go by Lightning!

[~*~Celes~*~]

I happen to find eclairs to be tasty, so perhaps she'll be a tasty character?

Also since when is the XIII forum at the top of the forums? I'm not complaining cause it's actually a good idea to incorporate some of the lower forums up top especially the newer games that newcomers will be looking for. But it was unexpected o.o

The name Eclair is cute, but it reminds me more of a doughy Palmer like character than a main character. xD

I really want one now.

[Sephiroth]

Hm, I have never noticed her real name in Final Fantasy XIII. And I've been waiting for it, I thought I would know her name at the end of the storyline. And I don't think I have just missed it.

Where did you get this information?

[Jessweeee♪]

I thought it was already announced o.o


Also I am lost, I thought I was further south, but then I went to the forum index to see that I went north instead D:

[Ouch!]

I was under the impression that it had been announced as something like Dia Walruva a long time ago.

Yep, this how we rollin' now. It'll be up here for the next couple of months or so.

...Die Walrus?

I can't get behind that.

I remember a lot of people being reminded of vaginas at the time!

[vinnie's mini's]

I actually quite like the name Eclair, though I don't really think it suits Lightning very much. Still I think its a cute name I'm willing to roll with it if it really is her name.
