You know what? I leave them the same.
Except Vivi, I name him Vincent. It just feels right.

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.
Blanche: "In the south we mature faster...I think it's the heat." Dorothy: "I think it's the gin."
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?
I've only named my characters something else than the default one time. So I'll give you all a list of the names![]()
Here ya go!
Zidane: Nadim
Garnet: Duariel
Steiner: Ikanhan
Vivi: Tsuh
Freya: Mekia
Quina: Quel
Amarant: Cetus
Eiko: Loola

NEVER QUESTION MR NIBBLES!
Yea The Moomins!!! Sorryany way in all Final Fantasy GAmes i Call the main charecter Matt (me) and the main charecters 'love interest' (sorry for the strange use of words) Claire (my wondertful wonderful girlfriend)
the rest i usually leave the same. appart from in FF7..... but thats a none related post
![]()
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.

Thanks ^_^
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....
