This thread is to list all the possibilities that could be for the name of the male protagonist in Final Fantasy Versus XIII. If you suggest a name, please use an online translator to translate the word into latin, this is just because I believe his name may be latin, but still to do with weather. As the theme for the compilation so far is latin-esque.
Nomura has confirmed in a recent interview with Famitsu, that the characters name is to do with Latin, please ONLY POST NAMES TO DO WITH WEATHER!
When you post the name suggestion, try to post the meaning of the word as well.
Some suggestions..............
----------------------------
Cirrus - Thin, wispy clouds that form high in the atmosphere as their water vapor freezes into ice crystals. Cirrus clouds are a principle cloud type.
The translation for Cirrus in latin is - ( No translation )
----------------------------
Cyclone - A low pressure system. It is a term variously applied to tornadoes, waterspouts, dust storms, hurricanes and even to any strong wind.
The translation for Cyclone in latin is - ( circuitous )
----------------------------
Frost - White ice crystals that form on a surface, like the ground or leaves of a plant. Frost is created when the air temperature drops below freezing and the water vapor in the air freezes into ice crystals.
The translation for Frost in latin is - ( gelu )
----------------------------
Haze - Tiny particles of dust, smoke, salt or pollution droplets that are scattered through the air. The particles are too small to be seen or felt individually, but they diminish visibility.
The translation for Haze in latin is - ( no translation )
----------------------------
Ridge - It’s an elongated area of high pressure.
The translations for ridge in latin are - ( promontorium, jugum, iugum )
----------------------------
Shear - It’s just a variation in the wind speed and/or direction over a short distance.
The translations for shear in latin are - ( tondeo, totonsi, tonsum, totondi )
----------------------------
Storm - Any disturbed state of the atmosphere that creates unpleasant weather like rain, lightning, thunder, hail, snow, sleet, and freezing rain.
The translations for storm in latin are - ( tempestas, procella, oppugno )
----------------------------
I personally like cirrus for some reason..... any other thoughts people???

Reply to my PM Pulse, plix.
Which PM? I made this thread because A. the other one was closed, and B. this has a little bit more structure to it i think than the last one, if its site rules not to spam, then why do we let it happen? lol

Nickel on Caelum, Nickel and two pennies on Storm. XD
Interviewer suggested that the name might be related to "weather" or "the skies" and Nomura responded that it would be a "weather" name without addings "skies."

----I thought Storm was just a speculation gone wrong that Kitmitsu made? =O It seems to define only his fighting style if so.

Storm is just randomly made up by fangirls. That is a bloody terrible name and it'd better not be anything like that.
----Fangirls are weird. Poor objects of fanhood.... They suffer at the hands of the so-called "fan" girls.

I don't know where you got that impression from, Storm being a randomly conceived by "fangirls". If it's a joke then forget the rest of this post. xD;
In a couple of other sites, specifically the french ones I've visited, Storm does seem to be the speculated name. (I think) this conception is linked to his "gloomy" looking character, which everyone (including myself) at the time thought that was how he was going to be. But uh, yeah, what with the revelations Nomura made now, we can basically shit on that suggestion.
I hope they don't name him storm. Storm is a very horrible name to give him. Storm is the name from the girl in X-men.. ._. I want him named something awesome and cool. Like from the other Final Fantasy's. Examples:Cecil, Kain, Cloud, Sephiroth, Squall, Zell, Locke, and Seifer. Those are comendable names (I may have not caught them all) Still.
I think his name will be tornado...or snowflake...
Seriously though... whatever they go with, better not be totally retarded.
And they better not ruin his clothes completely too, and I seriously hope they don't mess with his hair, it looks fine the way it is....

I think my head might explode soon, square-enix tends to do that to me..... especially Tutsuya Nomura with his interviews that answer a few of your questions but give you a thousand more while reading it.
