Post your FF naming schemes!

[Kuja]

So I'm about to finish up FF7 (spoil the ending and DIE) and I was wondering: do you rename your characters? If so, post your character lists here!

Here's mine:

FF - Gospel names

Fighter = Peter
Blackbelt = Thomas
White Mage = Mary
Black Mage = Judas

FF2 - Gundam pilots

Firion = Trowa
Maria = Chris
Gus = Argo
Leon = Terry

FF4 - ths is the exception. For some reason, I never renamed my FF4 characters.

FF7 - birds

Cloud = Eagle
Barret = Falcon
Tifa = Hawk
Aeris = Dove
Red XIII = Vulture
Yuffie = Crow
Cait Sith = Penguin
Vincent = Raven
Cid = Osprey

FF9 - weapons

Zidane = Knife
Vivi = Mace
Steiner = Sword
Dagger = Dagger (hey, it fit)
Freya = Katana
Quina = Bow
Eiko = Sai
Amarant = Rifle

[Anarchist Bunny]

Now adays I usualy use Crack Pack names, but the first couple of times I played FF6 I used DBZ names. I memeber Terra was Bulma, Celes was Videl, Realm was Bra, Seltzer was Freiza, and Sabin was Goku.

[Gandalf]

I usually just name the main character after me. Everyone else gets the stock names.

[Faram]

I only played FF VII, great game

But I kept the default names.

[Datana]

FF - Gospel names
Fighter = Peter
Blackbelt = Thomas
White Mage = Mary
Black Mage = Judas

How did you do THAT? I thought FF1 only let you have four letters in your name. Mind you, I've only played the original NES version, so don't know if any of the remakes improved on that.

[Slartibartfast]

I always use the stupidest name I can think of.

[The Yosemite Bear]

FF7:
Cloud: (after watching one of my friends play, I decieded that he was an Idiot.) thus "Dumkof" was born (used the same name for Squall, Tidane, and Tidus)
Tifa: while trying to decide what name to give her, one of my good friends in the park, a brunette with a big chest, burst in and proclaimed: It was his birthday, and he was just a virgin, so of course my pants came right off, I'm such a Good ****! (she was really proud of this, and thus a name for Tifa was found)
Barrett: Roundtree (fairly self explainitory for b-movie fans)
Aerius: Marian(My mom, the ultimate hippie chick's real name)
Red13: Simaru(sp) <fans of what the lion king was taken from>
Yuffie: Brat! (sorry I didn't like him too much)
Cait Sith: Darkside *the cat was EVIL I tell you, he even admitted to being a dark jedi*
Vincent: Beast (hey it was fitting)

FF8:
Quetzcoutl: Jello
Shiva: Ice Princess
Ifrit: Diablo (guess what else We were playing at the same time)
Siren: Spice (guess why)
(the rest I have forgotten, it's been too long since I last playied)

FF9:
tidane: dumkof
Stiner: Chad (you have to know chad, he's a cop around here)
Dagger: Dagger
Vivi: Orco (Master of the universe)
(Fox person): Kitsune
(big ugly thing): Glutton
Amranth: BobaFett
Aiako: trouble

PETR
THMS
MARY
JUDS

Gotta love four-letter capital style!

You could really come up with some subliminal nasty things using it...

[Ghost Rider]

FF - Gospel names
Fighter = Peter
Blackbelt = Thomas
White Mage = Mary
Black Mage = Judas

Most likely because he played the PSX version .

As for me...easy.

Main(whomever I chose) is myself.

Girl #1: Current Girlfriend
Girl #2: Random Girl I hold in good graces
Girl #3: Random Girl I hold in sorta good graces

Boy #1~?: Unless dependant(ie Race, Species...etc)...I just go down a list I have starting with Dave.

[LadyTevar]

Blackthorne (Hero)
Tevar (Girlfriend, tho I screwed up with FF7 and Aeris)
Phil (Philedelphia. SID)
Nitram (always a Mage)
Jhelian (other female)

[Vendetta]

Usually I keep the defaults (where such things exist).

[General Zod]

normally i just let it be defaults. i'm too lazy to come up with names for all the characters. or one of them for that matter.

[Rye]

The names for FF7 were some of my most surreal, come to think of it.

Cloud - Rye
Barret - JACK-2
Tifa - YAKYAK
Aeris = Aeriale
Red XIII = SarabEE
Yuffie = Buffy
Cait Sith = Cait Sith
Vincent = Vinnie
Cid = Capt.Dave

I must give myself a there.

[Mayabird]

My FF4 characters:

Cecil - Pat
Rosa - Katie
Kain - Ian
Rydia - Amy
Edge - Eric

I renamed them recently in honor of the upcoming Final Fantasy/marching band crossover fanfic powerpoint being done by my hero Pat.

A preview can be seen here but note, you must have Powerpoint or a viewer to see it.

That's me in green.

[McNum]

I've considered playing through FF7 and naming every character Sephiroth (if it fits in the name box).

That could get a little confusing at times, but would definitely create some funny lines here and there.

I played the Origins version for PS. That's how I got ahold of FF2 as well.

[The Kernel]

I just leave the default names. I never rename my RPG characters, with the exception of Chrono Cross where I renamed Serge (which has to be the stupidest fucking main character name ever) to Squall.

[Dalton]

I generally keep the names assigned, but sometimes I'll rename the main character to Smash or just change the capitalization. The first time I played FF4, though, I renamed all my characters after members and characters from Monty Python

[Symmetry]

I usually keep the names the same, but I changed Dagger's name in FF9 to Faile because it fit so well. Faile is from Robert Jordan.
