    Default Obviously Final Fantasy is kind of a silly name

    Because it isn't the final fantasy. It's multiple fantasies.

    If you could rename the series, what name would you use?

    Final fantasy is fine and you should know why it's named that.

    Yellow Winged Angel

    I honestly think that the name has supported the game's success. Look at "Endless Saga". That game's done, and it had a name that implied never being done.

    Maybe "Endless Fantasy" or "Unlimited Fantasy".

    It was originally called Final Fantasy because the company was struggling and they assumed it was going to become their last game, thus the name, Final Fantasy....


    11 Sequals later it does look silly.

    Well, of course. (We just had a thread about that)

    But if the creators knew that that legendary little game would resurrect their company like a LIFE16, do you think they might have named it differently? If so, what?

    Or do you think that half of their success was bought on sympathy alone?
    Certainly, Final Fantasy would be an awesome name for that one game, and then if they renamed all the rest to sucess, it would be another option.

    But if you could rename it, Call it Crystal Chronicles from the start, for example. ???

    Final Fantasy is a fine title, mainly because for all except X-2, the game is the final adventure in their world, hence, no tie ins with other stories, and each world is distinct and original unto themselves, besides the trademark cid, airships, moogles, etc.

    Although, with all the spin off like DOC, it seems time to kick the name :S

    I think they should've left "Final Fantasy VII" out of the title. It's a fun game, but has no place with that in the name.
