Do you rename your characters or do you keep the original?

[moco]

Me, I rename my characters. It draws me closer to them by making it more personal.

If you do what do you change them to?

Zidane = Moco

Steiner = Tank (obvious reasons)

Dagger = Skye (always liked the name)

The Dragoon girl = Karma , I don't remember her name because I always renamed her even back in the day

The Little Girl = haven't decided yet

The Red Haired Brute Force Guy = Adonis , from the movie Apollo , I liked the movie and the name very much

I don't know if I'm missing someone but there you have it

Freya, Eiko, Amarant

That's a reason why I don't rename Characters.

Leave Dagger alone !

I always keep the original names, it just feels right. Not because of lack of creativity, but because I want to experience the story as the creators envisioned it.
But to each its own! It's really just a matter of preferences.

"That Dragoon girl" = Freya.

Fun fact, by the way. "Moco" is "booger" in spanish.

Yea I've dealt with booger for a long time, heres another fun fact, Moço with the 'ç' actually means gentleman in portuguese, and Moco without the special 'C' in portuguese means 'deaf' too

Cool, didn't know that.

Sarah / Sera .

Zidane to Daniel, and this. Everyone else keeps their name the same.

I remember in school, kids are so childish...

I mean, I had classmates that named Aeris = ♥♥♥♥♥ Tifa= Stripper

RedXiii = Tony (tony tiger reference)

And barrett? ... ahum well it start with a "N".


I kept all original names, like my brother however we used our own names for the main characters in FF7-9.

[Mudkicker]

In the spanish version zidane was yitan -.- so i used to change the names to the original ones

[Topkek4real]

i dont like renaming chars, cause that steals some kind of atmosphere in the game, dont ask me why, just imo ^^ wanna stick to the story and background.

Steiner = Rasty

Dagger = Fiby

That is understandable , I'm the opposite it bring me closer to the characters.

I'm currently 10 hours into the game for the PS, and I will gladly but 10 more into the rereleaseif it comes out today. BUT 15 - 20 hours is kind of my limit though

[Play Metaphor]

I go with the original because I'm an unimaginative pleb.

[ThaBoooB]

i used to have a huge crush on Tifa when i was a kid, so i named both Rinoa and Dagger Tifa :P
but that has all changed now and i stick to original names for the atmosphere
