    Summons, Phantom Beast is alright. I'd just prefered that they had kept Summons throughout the series.

    Summons only cause I play alot of online rpg's and just a few other like psx rpgs before I picked up my first ff (ffviii, but now have played them all ) but they were all considered summons in those game's, so it just came natural to me to call them summons.

    Aeons just sounds cool, and Eidolon is very fantasy so it's a toss up between those two.

    That or "Phantom Beast," which is a rough translation of "Genjű" (it can also be translated as "Fantastic Beast," but that sounds a bit crappy).

    I'd appreciate it if someone would add the other options to the poll so I could vote (hi Kishi).

    Genju is the Japanese term for Espers, which are the summons from Final Fantasy 6.

    Genjű is actually the term used for all the summoned creatures throughout the entire series, not just FFVI.

    This is a simple part of every FF game so why confuse it with names. They are all summoned no matter what there called. thus there called Summons.:mog:

    I tend to use "summon" just as a generic term for any summon-able creature in the series, but I think Espers sounds the best.

    Summons, or 'elemental spells on steroids'.

    "Summons" or "Summoned Monsters" is what I usually use.

    I use the word "Summon", but I think Eidolon sounds the coolest.
