Aeris or Aerith?

[Forever Fantasy]

I just watched FFVII:AC the other day. And, well, I've heard a few people call the "Mother" of the movie Aeris. But then I also heard a few people call her Aerith. I'm not sure exactly what her name is, and I haven't played the actual game before, so would someone mind telling me what her real name is? I know that on my Myspace quiz "What Final Fantasy Advent Children Are You?" says Aeris, but then again...

At the end with Kadaj? I thought he mistook Aeris's voice for Jenovas. Its said Aeris and Aerith. It depends on what the person choses. I myself have always called/wrote Aeris.

Apparently Aeris was a mistranslation of sorts, which was corrected in later games like Kingdom Hearts, but it doesn't really matter which one you use, as either is correct.

Yeah it's Aerith now, but I personally think that Aeris sounds better. But I will always refer to her as Aeris.

Yeah, that about covers it. And BTW, when Sephiroth or one of the SHM says "mother", they're refering to Jenova. Aeris is, most definantly, not Jenova.

They think she's Jenova. Aeris says near the end 'everyone seems to be calling me mother recently'.

Isnt "Aerith" for japan, and "Aeris" for Europe??

[Hayabusa]

It doesn't matter what the spelling- In Japanese the "TH" sound will be a S sound - So "Sephiroth" is "Sephiros" - Listen to them say the name in AC in Japanese- So whether it be Aries or Aerith - It's the same ARIESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[Hawkeye]

Aerith is fine.

Says it all~

[TheBrent]

I call her Aeris, and it kinda peeves me to see people call her Aerith.

[Forever Fantasy]

Alright, well thanks you guys. That was a lot of explaning and it really helped. But I think I'm going to stick with calling her Aries, only because it's easier to say. And I made a typo, so I do know that there is a difference between Jenova and her. Sorry for the mishab!
Thanks again;

Aerith is fine.

It may be the intended spelling, but it's confusing to the average American who hasn't played FF7 or watched AC . . . wait, I don't remember her name being mentioned in AC . . . and I watch it everyday. Her name is spelled Aerith in the credits. That's the only time her or Zack are mentioned.
Anyway, like I was saying, the American pronunciation of "TH" makes Aeris sound weird. If the sound is an "S" sound then that's how it should be spelled in America. Let the Japanese keep Aerith, but anyone in America referring to the flower girl better call her Aeris.
