What did you call your character on X?
I called him Zack, I don't know why, but I started again and just called him Tidus, but my friends little brother called him Mongo!

Tidus.

I called him Tidus, just like his name was meant to be.

At first when I read this thread, I thought it was asking how to pronounce his name.

Also, I always leave the names of the Final Fantasy Characters the same.

ok i didn't know that.

Tee-dus??? :D :D :D

I kept his name on default cuz I don't like to change names.

Personallly though I don't think they should let you change names in FF games anymore since there's voice acting and it's awkard listening to a conversatrion and your party refers to you as 'hey you" and "the blitzball player from Zanarkand" when it would just be simple to say Tidus.

When I first started playing the gamr I called him Ti-dus.

oh yeah I leave the default names to all FF characters

the phonetic spelling one would say

The first time through I called him Tidus, but the second time through I called him Aries, mostly because it was a lot easier to tell which was my new game on my card. Also because I am an Aries. So there ya have it.

I always used to call my main character's Zack even in 7 coz it suited them

but in 10 it didn't really work so i stayed with Tidus

i always use my nick Arcadius ;; used it for Locke, Cloud, Squall, Zidane, and Tidus ;p

I called him Franny.My friend called him Olfart.She said if there was an anime,they'd probably change his name to Bob-It sounds more American.XD

I kept it as Tidus

i thought it was Ti-dus

i kept it Tidus i always do that the first time round keep they're names, then i muck about the second :P

i think i called him Zack second, then Daniel third lol

though i called cloud Zane first time round (that's because i had just played FF9 and called him Zane after Zidane)

and i called all the ones in FF9 all different first time round like;

Eiko-Miy
Steiner-Rustbort
Garnet-Sasami(from tenchi muyo!)
Amrant-Chicken(he looked like one!)
Quina-Dumbo
Freya-Freyja
Vivi-Cozmo

lol im a real nut!

To be honest i called him Retared

lol

you big meanie, what did he do to you?

lol retard good thing they never said his name!

'Oh no!What do we do? we need Retard!' hah!

if they could have made the game so u that they could say his name no matter what is was that would make the game all the more better

yeah that'd be good! i think they regreted doing that when they made X-2 as they kept refering to him as 'the young man' and 'you know who' lol

yeah that did kinda get anyoing but im not into X-2 that much so i didnt mind

lol.. It's like I said before. It's awkward listening to all those references instead of of just saying his name, hopefully it won't be like that in XII.

no it's not, because all the character's could be re-named in 7 so they wouldn't make it that confusing

Being that I always keep the default names ('cept for once), I kept Tidus's name at Tidus. But I pronouce it differently than how I'm supposed to pronounce it.

I kept his name the first time...and then the second time, he was Shuya. o.o;

My Aeons, however...were:

Valefor = Gwenhyfar
Ifrit = Ignus (Latin for "fire", I believe.)
Ixion = Madara
Shiva = Althea
Bahamut = Astaroth
Yojimbo = Warumono
Anima = Odin ;p

And the Magus Sisters were just...the Magus Sisters. ^^;

Rikku_Girl mentioned her FF9 party-- mine had quite interesting names too XD:

Zidane = Lupus
Garnet (Dagger) = Katana ;p
Steiner = Octavius. XD
Amarant = uh...Red. :P I'm such a loser.
Freya = Laverna
Quina = ...Quina. :P
Eiko = Amy
Vivi = Kyo.

XD;

I didn't change Tidus' name. I wouldn't even know another name for him.... ;)

I didn't change his name either. I really don't see the point.

I called him Pepito...


Just kidding, I called him Eddie because I feel like I got a connection with that guy so I named him after me!!!

Ramza

I always liked the default names. They are much cooler than what I could've come up with, for one reason. Tee-dus, huh? I've been saying Ti-dus for too long to change that pronunciation now. Anyways pronouncing Ti-dus reminds me of the water, and Tidus nearly lives in the water, so it makes more sense to me: Tidus as in Tide.

I called him Tidus. My mate called him Tightass... or so he said.

But there is one thing. I think Tidus is gay, not homosexual just happy. He is like Uber-Happy although Selphie gives him a bit of competition with the whole happiness factor... she sings about trains!

Tidus, I always leave the default name

I never changed a single name in any FF game, so X is no exception. I don't really see why they put in that option to be honest.

like i said i like keeping it the way it is First time round, but you know in Shadow hearts? you can change the characters names, but in the FMV sequences, they say the default names, i know this becaue the second time i played it, i named the main character 'Nemose' (don't ask :\) but Alice continued to call him 'Yuri' in the FMV sequence

i personally think they should have made the option to change his name not possible, but i think it would be soooo great if they had this thing in the game, where you can name the character anything you want, but it still says it, you know what i mean? they speak the name you named them instead of just not saying the name, or having no speaking

get what i mean?

i kept tidus - tho one play thru i changed his name to something dumb like blue balls. i didnt save that play thru anyway.

and i heard that it's supposta be pronouced "tee-dus" ... but that just sounds retarded to me, so i say "ti-dus"

changing names is queer
so i kept tidus

i always pronounced it 'Tie-dus' then i seen an interview thingy and everyone was saying 'Tee-dus' i say the 'tee-dus' one now, but if i hadn't seen that interview it'd still be 'Tie-dus' for me

me and my freinds always fight over they way names should be pronounced, we all have our ways of saying the name...like....shiva, my freind pronounces it 'Shiv-a' i pronounce it 'She-va'

ahh well

Hehe, I pronounce it as Shee-va too = D

And I always called him Ti-dus also, then on KH it said Tee-dus so I went with that.

Kiearan, Tidus mayb my own name but i never saved it

for my name i mean

i thought it was tidus with the i being pronounced as I cuz when i played i saw no letters in the name to imply that it was pronounced tee-dus and i think that tidus sounds better than tee-dus but thats just me.

i call him tide-us
not titus lol and ya i kept all teh defualt names cuz well it confuses me when there different and i read the stragety guide

I used Tidus coz I didn't want to use anything else. Why should I.
My aeons are all called funny names or something awesome.
Valefor = Gizyma
It's a little odd, I know.

i started a new game recently and named him titus LOL

i called him "tidus the retarded rabbit"... that'll show that fucktard... yeah, him and all his 1990's catchphrases

again with the 'fucktard' thing LOL leave poor tidi alone!

hehe why a 'retarded rabbit'? LOL

...to be honest i can't think of a reason to call him a retarded rabbit i stand by my dislike of tidus

Tidus

First thing i called him was Akira i think but it did'nt go with him....

yeah he didn't really seem like a child with psychic abilities who destroyed tokyo...

I named him Lorenzo. It just seemed to fit him. I named Cloud and Zidane Lorenzo too...hmph..whats up with that?...

Lorenzo? why do i suddenly think of shakesphere? LOL we're reading 'the merchant of venus' so it springs to mind LOL

i called Cloud Zane after 'Zidane' i dunno why, i called tidi that too

I originally called Cloud Lorenzo becuase it DID fit him. It also did fit Zidane. After awhile I kept Tidus as Tidus, I was trying to stick with tradition. If you're a blonde male, you're Lorenzo, I thought that since the 5th grade.lol

tidus is acctully brown haired (this is proven by the flashbacks) he must have dyed it blonde, the poser XD

nice research *nods head*

Tidus

hehe yeh tidus is goood ^_^ i couldn't be bothered changing it 1st time round lol

I think tee-dis or tee-dus sounds weird I call him Tide-us and thats the only thing what sounds right to me!

Tide-us? LOL hehe coolie! i call him tidi; Tee-dee hehe dunno why ^_^

i like say everything with a 'y/i' on the end, like 'ee' hehe

i used the default name... i own't go into the insults i yelled at him (ditto squall, and zidane)... even threw a glass at the TV/PS2 at a couple of points... (not to be recommended really, but oh well!!)

my most common insult... errr.. well... there was T!tface... not too sure on the rules of the board r.e. bad language, so i'd better not say the others!!!!!! >:O

i DID re-name all the aeons though... but it got waaay confusing!!

Andi

lol you're nuts :laugh:

i re-start the game and then get bored, this is how i have all the names LOL i called him titus once 'tit-us' LOL dunno why, all my freinds did that too ^_^

first it was keith. (my name) 2nd time it was keidrew. (keith and andrew- we shared the file)

coolie ^_^

I named him Kid, because it seemed to fit quite well. I snickered, too, when people kept calling him "kiddo", hehe ^_^

lol interesting name nobodysweasel! Kid. Ah well, I can't believe how long this threads went on!
I think Lorenzo does suit him
I also called tidus callum as well! Don't have the foggiest why though
Tidus is juts the best name for him I guess!

well it's the name we all know him with, if it had been something else, that name probably would have suited him too

lol i keep starting the game over then abandoning it :laugh: that's why i keep coming up with all these weird names hehe ^_^

i once called him larry! LOL

I called him grr, because he annoyed me the second i saw him.

lol another tidus hater lol

btw, 800th post! W00T! :D

I can't understand how people don't like poor Tidus! He is just the best!

the best in what respect? the guy's a tool.

lol a tool for what?

I think he's the best ff character EVER!!!!
And yeah, like Rikku_Love said, a tool for what?

lol you're nuts :laugh:

hell YEAH!! and proud of it too!!! hehe!!

i think the thing that annoys me most about tidus is that he seems sooooo much like a poilt, immature little BRAT than anything else! it'd make more sense to me (given his upbringing) if he was characteristically more like Squall from FFVIII, since he was basically ignored by his parents for most of his childhood, until his dad disappeared, and his mother basically gave up on life. i'd have preferred him to be more like Squall, rather than a complete nutjob, who screams blue bloody murder when things aren't going his way!! what the hell did Yuna see in him, especially in that FMV sequence just prior to leaving Luca?? bloomin heck! she must've been desperate! (...well, actually, i probably woulda been too, in her situation! hehe!!)

lol you're REALLY nuts :laugh:

i would have expected him to be more like sqall also, but that appears to be faulse

he was a crybaby, annoying brat (i still like him though) i didn't like the scene when they laugh together...esh i had to leave the room lol, or the scene when he's on the floor and beating up valefor (they were sad, but see 'em a few times and it gets annoying) and he was so immature when he said, 'But i want everything!' like a spoiled brat

anywhoooo, i started it recently and called him 'Bob-Face' lol that's Bob not Boob lol

I didn't change his name in game, so on screen it was still Tidus.

But whenever I would discuss the game with my friends who also played it we'd refer to Tidus as Gerber, because his face looks just like the Gerber baby's face.

i named him sephiroth, then cloud, then razgriz

coolie, one of my freinds called him 'CBT' (cry baby tidus), and another Yuna LOL

I just named him Tidus, as well did my brother. For some reason, my dad started playin it (didn't get too far, just to Beasaid Beach) and he named Tidus "Skidmark" :P lol

One time I named him ???? cuz know one in the game says him name or learns it.

i just called him the usual (my name) but really why do u even get to name him stupid really.

lol skidmark ^_^

'????' would work, because in ff10-2 he either just says it, or it comes up ????

my freind wanted to call him 'My Diper is Wet' but it wouldn't fit, so he named him 'B00B Job'

my frined is so cruel :laugh: funnie as hell though ^_^

BOOB Job!? OMG, that's hilarious! lmao

I called him Haru the first time and Alessan the next. I'm always changing their names.

Coolie ^_^ if i don't like a character, i name them horrible or funnie names LOL though i do like tidi

LOL i remember i named someone 'Ass-wipe' sometime LOL and there was a scene where someone shouted 'ASS-WIPE!? how could you!?' LOL and another where someone shouted, 'ASS-WIPE! get you're ass back down here!'

i think it was FF but i might be wrong lol

lol i told one of my freinds what 'Baka' meant and he went home and named tidi that LOL poor tidi :laugh:

*Is blinded by the amount of times the word LOL was used in the last post*

haha quiet you! I LOL ALOT OKAY?! haha

oh! my friend called Tidi 'Lollypop'! hahahaha!!!

I wanted to name Yuna "Ceres" but I found out that I couldn't. >_< Not fair!!

I named him Craptastic ...it was funny ^_^

I named him Craptastic ...it was funny ^_^

That's a pretty good name. J/K

I called him Yuna.... it got confusing later on in the game but can u imagine a deaf person playing this game with Subtitle names on?.... Yuna: What do you want to do? Yuna: I feel like I want to scream.... lol get it?

LOL! I get it! That would be a real hoot!

I called him Kidus my first time around. I just put my first initial in place of the T.

I called him Zidane the first time around... then i noticed they had voices and I thought that if I left his name as the default it would say his name somewhere in the game.

And it didn't.

i know crappy huh?

lol i think i called him Kiddo once lol, but it fit in with everything else because everyone kept refering to him as 'him' 'kiddo' 'this guy' LOL i named him 'Him' once too lol

I called Tidus, Tidus.

Acctually, there is one point in the game where they say your name, they do not speak it but the text is there. It's when you arrive at Kilika port (When sin destroys the whole town) Wakka gathers the Aurochs to see if they can go help in town. Then you can go to the part where the brigde is broken and I think it is Datto and Letty who are hammering in the bridge and if you speak to either Datto or Letty then one of them is going to say something like this: Watch out "name". It's not safe here! Atleast in my version (PAL) but thats the only place I've discovered yet. Anymore you can find out?

I called him Orestes...

A friend of mine tried to call him Thadius but accidently put an umlaut(sp.) 'U' and it sounded like Thadioos.

I called him Draiman the first time, Marcus the second time and Loki the third time.

well i called him Wanker first time, and Wannabee the second
i hate tidus!

dont people just call him tidus like i do ?

I always call him Tidus. It's very rare for me to rename characters in FF games, their names are their names and usually pretty well chosen, so I see no point in changing them.

I named him Tidus, it REALLY bothers me to name characters other then what they are supposed to be called unless you;re naming Red XIII Nanaki or stuff like that.

yea cuz if you play the game later on youll prolly wish it was his regular name and not some nickname u gave him

i named Tidus Im Gay
