I call her what she is called in the relevant game/media.

If I am referring to her without referencing, I call her what she was called in the original game that started it all.

So Aeris generally, but when referring to Crisis Core, Aerith.

"Oh, actually my names Mike, but nice to meet you too."

"GET smurfED YOUR NAME IS MICK JUST SHUT UP!"
Keep in mind Aeris introduces herself as Aeris, so that doesn't quite work. More fitting...

"Hi, my name is Monique."

"Hi, I'm a person who has known Monica since she was in her mother's belly. Her name is Monica. It's definintely Monica."

"Hi, I've known Monique since she was a child, and it's Monique, definitely."

"Hi, I'm her parent. No, her name is Monica. We wanted to call her Monica but we accidentally put Monique on the birth certificate, and now she goes around calling herself Monique anyway, as do a lot of her friends. But at some points in her life she has also called herself Monica, so her name is totally Monica. But to be honest, when we enhanced the videos/stories we had of her during the times she called herself Monique in those videos/stories, we decided to keep calling her Monique. We've just found out that there is additional writing/footage of that stage in her life and we're not sure if we're going to label her Monica or Monique in that just yet, but I'm sure one friend will be very happy and gloat about it while the other will get defensive. Her friends are weird. We try to ignore them."
