"Tie-dus" or "Tee-dus"?

[Rogue]

It's Tee-dus. SE is NOT pronouncing it wrong. Why? The Japanese alphabet vowel sounds are identical to Spanish vowel sounds.
a- ah
e- eh
i- ee
o-oh
u- oo

So, the following things are true:
Kimahri- Kee-mah-ree
Rikku, Yuna, Lulu and Wakka are phonetical.
AND Tidus- Tee-dus

His name doesn't break any rules of English with this pronunciation. Consider the words 'Yahoo', 'Select' and 'Kiwi'. In the words, we find a consonant surrounded by two vowels. BUT, the first vowel does NOT use its long sound.

For the name to be pronounced 'Tie-dus', it would have to be spelled 'Tydus' or 'Taidus'. But 'Tidus' is clearly pronounced as if it were spelled 'Teedus'.
