naming chars after eoff people

[eestlinc]

I started a new game today and I've been naming most characters after my friends at eoff. Zidane and Garnet I named after offline friends, but so far I have:

Vivi: Nicky (Calliope)
Steiner: Yams
Freya: Leeza

I haven't decided on the rest yet. Anyone else do this? Who here do you think best mathces each character?

[Xander]

I think you should call Eiko Xander cos she's cute and she has a moogle for a best friend, aww, I wish I did. ;__;

[Yuffie514]

most of the time, i start by giving characters names from previous Final Fantasy games.

[Old Manus]

Call Amarant Old Manus because he's cool like me.

[The Man]

I named Link WesLY in the last game of A Link to the Past I played. I'm sure there have been others, as well, I just can't think of any offhand.

If I were to match myself with any character it'd be Amarant, probably. Eiko I'd name after Dixie if I were using eoff people, but I doubt I'd use eoff people for FF9 characters. Dunno why.

[theundeadhero]

I use my real life friends because I have to show some signs of loyalty to them somewhere.

[eestlinc]

I'm pretty sure I'm naming Amarant "Spuuky".

[Trumpet Thief]

chaos: I could be the thief stealing a Trumpet, until I get busted by Zidane.

[Del Murder]

Been there done that.

Zidane: Del
Garnet: Nicky
Vivi: Yams
Steiner: Hermie
Freya: Leeza
Quina: Eest
Eiko: Shlup
Aramant: Spuuky (The Flaming Spuuky, long before he was The Flaming RSL)

[Slade]

Squall could be Slade . Whoops! Wrong Final fantasy

[eestlinc]

i see we agree on a couple.

[Christmas]

Everyone would be named Quina except Zidane.
