    I'd hate to bring back a dead thread, but I just needed to point this out. "Mont Blanc" not only means "White Mountain" in French, it actually is a mountain on the border between France and Switzerland. Highest mountain in France, I believe.

    I doubt the character designer even knew that. The guy's named after the dessert is all.

    Hello again, guys and gurlz
    well, i'll explain...
    since i'm brazilian, and in Brazil we DONT speak english, i am just speaking cos i learned it myself, it's kinda easier to explain since i speak portuguese, and it's similar to french, spanish, italian, cos they also came from latin, but not to english, cos english comes from german
    well, stopping to talk about history...
    actually i pronounce the names this way:
    (the caps leters are the strongest pronounced)
    Ivalice= y-vĘh-líss (not I-valice)
    Bangaa- bęn- gŔah
    Human- ¬.¬
    Viera- vyĘrra (try to speak as an italian fellow)
    Nu Mou- nÍu mÔü
    Moogle- mÚú-gal (just like Google)
    Rafael- hey! that's my name, also my main character's
    räph-a-Él
    MontBlanc (yes, it realy means White Hill in french)
    mönte-blÁnque
    Llednar- llëd-nÁar

    well, i think that's it...
    any suggestions... just tell me!LOOK AT MY SIGNATURE!
    ok then...
    see ya later
