    I gave my characters their default names. That's what I do most of the time in RPGs. I think I once considered renaming the characters like this (IIRC, there's a guy in 65 million BC who lets you rename your characters):

    *SPOILERS!*


    Marle - Nadia
    Frog - Glenn
    Robo - R66-Y
    Magus - Janus

    I stuck with their default names

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    I did that for my most recent New Game+. Sometimes i give them weird names, though. The best is "Nadle". I was typing in "Nadia" over "Marle" and i stopped midway through to go piss. When I came back, I was laughing my butt off.

    I've named them their "true" names before. Unfortunately, you can't name Robo "Prometheus".
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    I left their default names on my first run through, and then I renamed them like that. ^^^

    I would much rather have named him that.

    FFXIV Character

    Mirage Askai (Sargatanas)

    Default

    I've named them their true names since my second playthrough.
    -edit-
    Oh yeah, on the first playthrough, i didn't catch Robo's actual name, and I hated "Robo", so I ended up calling him R2D2.

    I always name Frog 'Leap' because that's what I did when I was a kid and it always stuck. In one game I named him Glenn, and pretty much gave everyone else their true names except Robo for obvious reasons...I just left him as 'Robo'.
