    Katakana say "Serisu", but I don't know how to spell it fonetically in English.

    SELL-ess

    Did you know that Celes spelled backward with a t at the endmakes the word 'select'? I noticed that when I was reading my FFVI strat guide upside down (I was bored as usual.)

    Serisu -> Seris-> Selis-> Seh Lees. Ta Da! So I guess I was right
    (Hack off the "u", turn the r to an l, insert pronunciation! :P)

    Or not. Who knows. But like I read in FF Conpendium's name origins, if you combine Celes and Tina's names, it makes "Celestina", which I thought was pretty interesting

    When I was little I said it Sell-Ease

    But now, after knowing someone with the name Seles, I pronounce it Suh-less

    At first, we said "SELL-eez", but now, I say "sel-ESS". I believe that's how it's said. I think it may be a variation on the european female name "Celeste" (pronounced "SELL-est")

    "Suhress," although I'm quite accustomed to calling her "sweetheart."
