How to pronounce Faris' name?

[Alenita]

Do u pronounce Faris' name Far-iss or Far-ees?
I wish thinking it's probably Far-ees, because if she could only say Farifa, pronounced Far-ee-fa, the pirates wouldthink it was Far-ees?
Far-iss a little out of her original name...but Far-iss sounds better than Far-ees.
I pronounce it either way.

[Moose Knight]

I always thought it was something like Fair-iss.

I certainly don't pronounce it "salsa" More like ferris wheel but with more of an a vowel sound.

[Eternal Sphere]

Far-iss
For some reason thats how I always thought it was pronounced. But...Paris and Faris should rhyme....well, shouldn't they?

[Sanity_XIV]

eh... i pronounce it "far-iss" far-ees sounds odd..

[omnitarian]

I pronounce Faris Like Ferris wheel, although I pronounce Sarisa "Ser-EES-uh".

[mog42]

I pronounce it like Aeris with an F added in the front. It sounds the same as ferrous.

[Bloodstone]

Far-iss. Fair-iss sounds okay too.

YES I KNOW i'm reviving but I was going to do a post on this anyway but I thought I'd just use one that already existed (This one)

her name is pronunced SAH-RISS aka Saris in spelling

WHY?

well as you already know L is pronunced the same way as "R" well TH is some times confused with "S" (Aeris Aerith) so I think Faris is a joke on that common mistake so Tha-Riss-aH (AKA Far-iss-a) is Actualy SARISA

and Dfinitly NOT SALSA

(You DO know what Salsa means don't you?)

You're close...... In Japanese th and s are the same sound, so they're not mistaken, they're just the same. Also, Sarisa's speech impediment was just that. You can't mistake an f for a th in Japanese. The f is actually a combination of the sounds that in English are identified as f and h. I love linguistics, it's fun

Yeah, I'll ignore the ater posts, and go on with " How to pronounce Faris' name?" in the thread title.

Fa(as in "Fat") - riss (as in "Wrist")

Obviously I don't say Fat-Wrist, I just make the sounds featured somewhere in them. FA-RISS.

I always thought it was pronounced Fair-Iss... something like ending it with Bueller... Bueller... Bueller...

[Sephex]

I say Faris...as in a "Faris" wheel(that was so stupid please don't kill me).
