What would you name him?

Dark Remnant · Dec 18 2007, 11:16 PM

OK so as we all know the main character for FF Versus XIII is yet to be named by SE so what I want to know is that if it were 100% your decision and nobody else's as to what his name would be...what would you name him and why?

Naunen · Dec 18 2007, 11:36 PM

I'd name him Sky.

Dark Remnant · Dec 18 2007, 11:47 PM

Why Sky?

I'd name him Somnus because out of all the speculated names I think that suits him best.

Naunen · Dec 18 2007, 11:51 PM

It seems like a deep name. The Nomura Final Fantasy's have weather names. Cloud, Squall, and Tidus (sunshine), so why not? The sky can either be blue, grey, and black. The sky's unaffected by weather but we think so because we see things go over it.

Dark Remnant · Dec 18 2007, 11:56 PM

I think the weather/elements type theme for names should be left out for this one, it's just getting old now.

Naunen · Dec 18 2007, 11:56 PM

They didn't leave out Lightning. o.o

Dark Remnant · Dec 18 2007, 11:59 PM

That doesn't mean I agree with the name plus it could be changed at any time as SE have said before.

----I don't agree with Somnus either. Besides, wouldn't it be Nomura's final Final Fantasy compilation?

Dark Remnant · Dec 19 2007, 12:05 AM

Apparently so, I still think that going along with the weather/elements theme is a bad idea for this particular game as it seems a complete opposite to FFXIII.

Naunen · Dec 19 2007, 12:10 AM

What else kinda name would suit the guy? I'd still say Sky 'cause that name's technically not used by a Final Fantasy yet. But that's only an opinion and I'm simply answering the thread with my own decision.

Dark Vincent · Dec 19 2007, 03:11 AM

Lol Maybe I'm reading it wrong but... why do you make a thread asking for opinions if you don't accept them? D: Sky is cool, Somnus is also cool. Since it's a spin-off of the main series (like X-2, Tactics, Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerberus, etc.) I wouldn't discard the possibility of having an unrelated name (though Zack did have Fair as his last name, which is a reference to weather) but it's not completely ruled out either. As for my opinion, something related to Gray/Silver/Argentum, maybe Gray itself could be the name, or Grey.

I'd sayaHe should be named MisterMan

Maiya · Dec 19 2007, 04:41 AM

Well... Actually, I'd call him Sutomu Agito. I think that's how you would spell Storm in Romanji, but I'm not sure. The name has just stuck with me. Yeah, I know Agito is the name for the cellphone game, but I thought it sounded good with him. Though, I wouldn't like for his name to be Storm in English, I still like how it's pronounced in Japanese.

Whiplash · Dec 19 2007, 04:47 AM

I'd call him Othello seeing as Nomura's calling this game a Shakespearean tragedy.

Naunen · Dec 19 2007, 05:19 AM

Let's see... Cloud has some fuzzy memory and a rather clouded mind; Squall is a short-lived sudden storm and the guy does freak out at people just like that depending on situations, Tidus is a bright outgoing guy and his colours (blue and yellow) show cheeriness so he's like the sunshine on blue skies; and... *looks at Versus guy* We don't know much about him except that he at the moment is wearing black, has silver hair, and his eyes change colour but it doesn't change him. That's my full reason for the name Sky. The sky's always there, clouds go over it, it changes colours depending on the sun and stars but if it weren't for the things we see it'd actually be space-black. Hmmm...

Patsie · Dec 19 2007, 08:21 AM

I call forth the name Spatula for him.

But what you said, Naunen, Sky is a pretty good name. The sky do change colours a lot. On sun sets it gives out indigo, orange etc colours. Pretty good..

Naunen · Dec 19 2007, 08:23 AM

Spatula.

Soldier: Oh noes!! It's teh Spatula! Ruuuun for yo' lives!!!
Versus guy: o.O

Patsie · Dec 19 2007, 08:33 AM

I suggest for you to name him Spatula in your comic.

Naunen · Dec 19 2007, 08:39 AM

Nah, I don't wanna give him a name in my comic.

Maiya · Dec 19 2007, 09:02 AM

Wow. You really do have a good reason for naming him Sky. But say you put his name into Japanese. Would you have his named be translated as Sora or still Sky , like as Sukai? Or something like that... Aha, I have nothing to back up the name I chose for him, but I stick by it anyway.
