    I am 100% certain that someone named "Topaz" on a reality TV show is not using their real name.

    If I'd have a daughter (probably never going to happen) I'd name her Ashelia without a second thought

    You're right, her real name is Emerald.

    Not at all! I've known since I played Final Fantasy 6 that I wanted to name my daughter (god willing I ever have one!) Terra. Same spelling as well.

    I think if it's a really cool name you might as well be different and go for it. You probably won't run into many of your high school friends named Nanaki, Tidus, or Galuf. Now if you do name your kid that, I'm pretty sure hardcore gamers and FF fans around will get the reference. I've named a dog of mine after Nymeria off of Game of Thrones. A little bit different than an actual kid, but still, a lot of these names are very unique and only recognized in the Final Fantasy community.

    For hard mode, go with Eclair and Ffamran.
    Seriously though, there are some pretty nice names in Final Fantasy.

    Fun fact: Before my son was born, my top picks for names were Joel for a boy and Ellie for a girl.

    MissH knew damn well where my inspiration came from and vetoed them both

    There are names out there that are far beyond the weirdness of Final Fantasy character names ¬_¬

    That being said, I have always dreamed of naming future children after them, especially the female names like Edea, Rinoa, and Raine.

    No particular preferences for male names though.
