Pronunciation
My friends and I have argued religiously about this... Is it a Ko-ko-bo, or a Cho-ko-bo.... with the "ch" sounded like it does in in the word church. I always thought it was with Ch prounounced like in the word Christ... just cause the other way sounds cheesy. We also argue aobut how to pronounce Ramuh, Ragnarok, etc etc etc

I've always pronounced it 'cho-ko-bo'.
It is "Cho-ko-bo", it even says it in FFX.
"... and so I close, realizing that perhaps the ending has not yet been written."
Actually it's cho-ko-mo-bo.

It's Cho-ko-bo. Always has and always will be... At least that's what I hope
I always thought it was o was a short o (like in stock or flock), rather than a long one (like in bone or phone). In FFX it's pronounced with a long o, though. I guess that decides it. :rolleyes2
Yeh I thought that Skogs, I really dislike the way FFX says it.
I say what I think. If you disagree, then that is up to you.
Oh man! I hate that. It sounds so corny!

It also tells you how to pronounce it in FFVIII and even before then there's a vocal sample of the word in "Techno De Chocobo", the Chocobo riding theme from FFVI. I'm guessing that the translitterated version looks like "chokkobo".
Choco-bo. Two short, one long. It was crushing to find out that it wasn't true. ;_;
I used to pronounce it the way FFX says it, so I guess it doesn't bother me that much.
"... and so I close, realizing that perhaps the ending has not yet been written."
I always pronounce it as 'Co-co-bo', even though I've always been aware that it's incorrect. I just like the way it sounds like that.
It's kind of like with the pronounciation of Tidus. Techincally it's pronounced "Tee-dus" but alot of people still like it as "Tie-dus".
"... and so I close, realizing that perhaps the ending has not yet been written."
I pronounce it like cho-koh-boh, with 'cho' like in the word 'chocolate'. About the plural form of Chocobo, I always thought it was Chocoboes, but FFX and FFX-2 seem to spell it Chocobos.
