The name "Haydee".

[Forneia]

Someone I know came and asked me if the game's name and player-character was inspired by the name and likeness of a porn star by the name of Haydee Rodriguez. I do not have a concrete answer to this question and thus I am asking here.

They do have similar marketing strategies.

Of course, because that's the only Haydee in the history of the world. Can only be. *rolleyes*

Haydée. The daughter of Ali Pasha, eventually bought by the Count of Monte Cristo from the Sultan Mahmoud. Even though she was purchased as a slave, Monte Cristo treats her with the utmost respect. She lives in seclusion by her own choice, but is usually very aware of everything that is happening outside.

GIven how well known The Count of Monte Cristo is, I think there's a much more likely scenario the name being based on that.

I thought it was supposed to be a more robot-ish version of the name Heidi.

Aha. Ahaha. Ahahahaha. No.

[antales]

Yes, it was based on The Count of Monte Cristo character Haydée. Name only.
