Pronouncing Tidus

[boys from the dwarf]

You go it all wrong. Tidus is actually pronounced "WAN-ker."

i dont hate tidus but thats funny.i could of sworn it was pronounced tie-dus(as in the thing you wear and the word dust without a T

[Shoeberto]

Didn't they say his name in FFX?

Chocobo has always been a big mystery. I say chock-oh-boo, though usually I hear choke-oh-bo.

Also, I pronounce Xeno-(gears/saga) as zee-no, but I've heard it pronounced with a short e, too.

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

It was never spoken in the game, but the narrator in one of the trailers said it.

And there's no mystery to how chocobo is pronounced. It's cho-co-bo, just like how it's spelled.

i recon they shouldnt have givin you the chance to change his name at the begining, cause sum of the lengths gone to, not to say his name r stupid. me and my brother had a debate on how to pronounce it, so we asked "Microsoft Sam" (If u have windows XP, you might no hu that is ) AND HE SAID SUMFINK DIFFERENT ALL TOGETHER!!! BAH
Im sicking to calling him wat i always have, disspite wat was said in kingdom hearts,:
Tide-us
(tide, as in "the tide came in and knocked down my sand castle".)
(us, as in "get away from us")

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

It's actually zee-tahn.

[Jojee]

Tifa is pronounced Tee-fa, right? I've always pronounced it Tiff-a.

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

Considering Yuffie is pronounced yoo-fee, I can't really blame you.

[Loony BoB]

Chock-oh-bo or Chock-ah-bo. Sort of a mix.

Tie-diss, like "tie this".

Yuffy, rhymes with puffy.

Zid-ain, like "Cid rain".

Sill-ess, rhymes with "Bill Tess"

I guess I've always had Tea-fah (like "Beef? Ah!") right.

[Jojee]

I always prounced Celes See-Lees too xD Which sounds horrible and I never got why they named her that. But I recently discovered it is Seh-less, and that is much, much prettier... I would name my kid that!

Bang on. The only reason I can see to pronounce it any other way is due to Japanese attempts at creating English-sounding names.

I diddn't know tiffa's name was pronounced that way. I always called her Ti(short i)-fa(short a). And they did say tidus's name in final fantasy x. Not with sound though. When you just start the game, you are travaling down that road were jechts picture is at and you talk to one of the people and they say "good luck at the game tidus". I knew Tidus's way to pronounce it from X-play (on g4 tv.) that it was Tee-dus But i still like tie-dus. It sounds wayyyyyyyy better.

[Alice]

and tidus would be tee doose <-- but alas we are american
