Character Name Thread

[Sephiroth]

I decided to make a name for the character names, later I will probably add other terms as well. Depending on the name the source is either the official Japanese version of the game, the official Japanese game manual and other sources.

Japanese characters, Roumaji, Japanese name, Western name

Japanese characters: Names mostly written in katakana.
Roumaji: How those characters would be written and "sort of" pronounced in our language/s.
Japanese name: How the name in Japan is supposed to be even with our letters. Mostly taken from games or manuals.
Western name: Western translation and/or version.
