    I named my characters:

    Zidane: Dalton
    Garnet/Dagger: Justine
    Vivi: Vivi, my bro named him Baldur, for some reason that seems to fit
    Steiner: Steiner
    Freya: Freya
    Eiko: Sierra
    Amarant: I don't remember, I think I just kept it Amarant
    Old enough to know better, but dumb enough to do it anways.

    Zidane -> Sidney
    I absolutely hate the name "Zidane" so I chose a name that I like but still sounds similar to the original name.

    Vivi -> Vivo
    In Scandinavia "Vivi" can be a female name and he is something similar to a male so I took the name from the Swedish food chain which sounds more suitable for a male. But I've watched a lot of "The Young Ones" lately so I might name him "Vyvyan" or “Vivian” the next time.

    Garnet -> Bowie
    David Bowie supposedly took his name from a knife/dagger as well.

    Freya -> Freja
    I just don't like the anglo spelling of the name.

    Eiko -> My
    In reference to the short and angry character "Little My" from the Moomin/Mumin Valley.
    "the most captivating and emotional Final Fantasy experience"
    Could the description be less unbiased?

    Well, the first time I play through, I like to leave the names as they are, but the second or third time around? Nah, it's too much to resist by then. Compromise is good <3.

    Anyway...

    Zidane: Jitan

    Garnet: Ada (From Ada or Ardor by Nabocov; Garnet looks like Ada.)

    Steiner: Nalpk (An anagram of "Plank" I first gave to Tidus in FFX.)

    Vivi- Mouche (A term used by a famous French transvestite to describe the silk flowers on his dresses.)

    Quina: Spoot (Meaning "drat" or "sub-par"; from The Angry Beavers.)

    Freya: Absinth (Which should have an e at the end. I just like the word.)

    Eiko- Tot (German for "dead" also one of the characters in Weiss Kreuz.)

    Amarant- Useless

    Of course, for round three, I might have to try some new things. I like a LOT of the suggestions here. Especially Breine's.

    I called them like this:

    Zidane: Xander. All my main guys are called Xander! Well Zidane was the first


    Garnet: Flick. I dunno why. I just liked it.

    Eiko: Misty.

    Steiner: Arthur. It suited him.

    Amarant: Neo. (red hair)

    Freya: Billie (she looked like a goat )

    And that's all I changed I think...

    FFXIV Character

    Gamina Condoin (Sargatanas)

    Default

    I like to keep te names.... I don't think that shows a lack of imagination on my part but rather an apreatiation for the imagination of the story writers....

    I find that the names suit the characters and also have added meaning some times...

    At least I don't change them the first time through....

    Once I have gone through once the characters are liable to get stuck with all sorts of names ranging from:

    Lestat (A Vampire in Anne Rice Novels)
    Frodo (Hobbit in Lord of the Rings)
    Maiku (A name I created.....)
    Legolas(ANother Lord of the rings character)
    Cecil (FF4 Character name)

    Just Some of the names my main char ends up with....
