Naming Your Characters

[TheAbominatrix]

Yeah, all caps is dumb.

[Rase]

Usually keep the same, though sometimes I change them to various things, depending on mood.

[-N-]

Recently, my friend and I played through it 2-player and named everyone in the game after people we knew that kinda resembled their personalities. I was Setzer, and my friend was Umaro.

When I do that, Umaro becomes "Dad". I'm usually Edgar or Sabin.

[Sunny Rabbiera]

I usually have a pattern to naming my chars in the game:
main male characters: Char
main female characters: Sunny or Luna depending on thier roles [the tougher type girls like Tifa or Celes I call Sunny and the weaker type like Aries or Terra are named Luna.]
secondary male characters: Lunk [For large built characters like Barret or Steiner] Lancer [for slim types, like Edgar] Alfred for older types [Cyan] Guile [for Sabin] Satan [shadow] Zechs [for Setzer]
the others vary on my mood

[Classic Axe]

When I first had the game, I made a very stupid move and renamed Shadow D.Nimb. There is a long story behind it, but it really bugged me and made me wish that namingway would come back.

Anyways, now I usually do these changes:
Sabin - Sabine
Locke - Theef
Gogo - Arshabl
Terra - Tera
Relm - Rhelm

[Zechs]

I sometimes used Shadows original name, Which was Clyde (Flash backs).

[PunkRockLocke]

I just give my characters names that i think are cool and fit their personalities. I just try to not have too many names starting with the same letter. Sometimes i use made up names but this time i went for real names.

Terra: Serena
Locke: Smith (haha, locksmith! get it?)
Edgar: Lionel
Sabin: Darian
Shadow: Siluet
Celes: Ruby
Cyan: Calvin
Setzer: Spade

etc etc. i used the names of my favourite bands once, but it just turned out weird.

"Th.Usd uses Pearl!" It's just strange.

[stragee]

I always keep the names the same.

I'd have to agree. I got attached to the characters with names just as they were by default

[Redfield]

Erm...
i called Terra Sakura (cus she turns pink)
Celes: leena
i can't remember the others... i think i called Edgar Shugo... but ti kept Locke the same cus thats cool...^^

[Zhou]

I keep all the names as defult. Unless I currently hate someone by that name, or some certain name partiulary annoys me.

[KoShiatar]

This makes me think about a non-Final Fantasy funny thing that happened to me a pair of years ago.
I had started to play Breath of Fire, it was my first RPG ever and I didn't have any idea of how to go through it. So when the game prompted me to enter a name, I thought it was a name to distinguish saved games one from another and I typed "Fra1". That turned out to be the hero's name!!
Until much later in the game, when I got to the underwater village where you could change party people's names, I kept on reading things like "It was all because of Fra1 if Nina was saved!"

[Imperia]

Nowadays, I keep their names, but when I was younger, I liked changing their names. The only ones I can remember are Delia (Celes), Chad (Sabin), and Keaton (Strago).

[Levian]

TERRA = Terra
LOCKE = Locke
CELES = Zelda (Oh, come on. They're twins.)
GAU = Tidus (I have yet to see a difference)
SETZER = Leprsy (He looks like he has leprosy in the menu picture)
CYAN = bitch (for comedic relief in conversations)
MOG = Mog
STRAGO = slut (see CYAN)
RELM = female genitalia with four letters starting with a C (see CYAN)
GOGO = whtevr (whatever)
SABIN = Sabine (At least that's a real name, even if it is a female name. wtf is Sabin? lolz:rolleyes: )
EDGAR = Pimp

[Big D]

OOC:	SABIN = Sabine (At least that's a real name, even if it is a female name. wtf is Sabin? lolz:rolleyes: ) Sabin is an old, obsolete masculine version of Sabine.
