    Probally because everybody would know that you got it from a video game.

    Yeah, I'm generally with everyone saying 'only the normal names' (except the people who then said Cloud or Terra). Naming your child something that can easily be identified by popular culture kind of makes you a sadistic asshole.

    Pishaw! You guys don't know what your missing out on. Naming your kid Ifrit would be awesome. "Hey Ifrit get you butt in here!" Then me and my wife and friends will laugh.

    Or Megaman...

    Well, I think FF girls have nice names ^^ Like, Lenna, Rydia, Tina (aka Terra)

    Perhaps I would name my daughter after one of them, if I have one, or if I won't prefer the name Luscia XD

    But if I have a son, nope, no FF names. Except for maybe Cid. XD

    My mum likes the name "Celes" which I pronounce as "Sell - air"

    I always did love the name Cecil, which is an actually name and not just some made up thing like Vaan. (Plus Cecil is derived from the Latin name Caecilius, and Latin is win)

    Vaan isn't made up, it's a commonly used name in Holland.

    Awesome topic.

    I'd love to call my kids (if i ever have any) somthing realy crazy and weird, like Sephiroth or Bahumut or Shiva.

    EDIT: Of course, i never would.

    Like games, humour, lively communitys and paunchy homosexual men
    dressed in tight green latex (or even just the first three)?

    No, it was this baby that was named Sephiroth... There's a news article about it I'm too lazy to look for.

    The one name in FF I ever did think I might like to call a daughter if I ever had one.

    There was a member at Fool's Gold who I remember being rather adamant about naming a child after Rydia for FFIV which I always thought was quite something. I can think of one or two literary characters whose names I might like to use as a middle name or something, but I don't feel particularly motivated to use a computer game character.
    Not my words Carol, the words of Top Gear magazine.

    Two links on our own forums, but the page that originally had it no longer exists.
