    Exactly. The issue resides in the fact that some people probably pronounce the real name, while others say the abridged name. That's all.

    Tidus: tee-dus

    Valefore: val-for

    Bahamut: buh-ha-mut

    Ixion: ix-i-on

    Yojimbo: yo-jim-bo, just the way it's spelled

    for everyone who doesn't belive me...i beat the game and all of my friends that beat the game say the same thing.the wrong way:

    Tidus: tie-dus (NO)

    Valefore: vail-a-fore (NO)

    Bahamut: baa-hah-moot (NO)

    Ixion: ix-ee-on (NO)

    Yojimbo: well,on one tried to explain it.

    But those are the proper ways to say it.

    I still think Tidus is a alternate spelling of Titus, and that kingdom hearts doesn't know what it's talking about^_^ or something.

    Anyways, I'd get a demonologist to tell us how to say valefor, and a greek for ixion, after a bit of wikipediaing and pantheon.org-ing.

    Doned - Dough Ned
    Ivalice - Ih Vuh Liss
    Nu Mou - New Moo
    Bangaa - Bang uh
    Cyril - Sigh rill

    Here's My list of FFTA:

    Ivalice - I-vah-liss
    Nu Mou - New Moo
    Bangaa - Bang-gah
    Cyril - Seer-ill

    However there was a FFTA commercial aired on television that pronounced Ivalice like (E-vah-lees) and Marche like (Mar-shay) so, We're wrong technically, but I can live with being wrong.

    I have an idiot friend who still says Coke-a-bo, instead of Choke-a-bo.
