Back in NEW days we always had the same names for our guys. POW! for the monk, Zap! for the black mage, and heal for the white mage. We just came up with whatever for the other guys.

Also Shiroi is white, and black is kuroi, kurai, and kuro.

I like that this thread has gotten as much attention as it has, but it's getting close to Saturday evening and I haven't seen much activity in terms of name proposals for Fighter.

I also like that this has been an open discussion, and that names for other characters have been discussed.

The thing is, though, I'd like to have fairly conclusive results for this instead of having suggestions. Suggestions are fine, but my goal (not necessarily yours) is to decide on "official" names.

Maybe what's needed is a format for proposal. Instead of saying "Well, in the manual Fighter's name was NEST." let's say "I propose that Fighter's name be NEST." That way when I post a poll on Sunday I can know specifically what people want as options.

I haven't played any of the other Final Fantasy games, so I don't know what his character class usually is, but I'm surprised no one has mentioned the name "Cid."

BG-57: What game manual and guide are you working with? I thought there was only the one. I would very much like to know if there are materials other than the basic instruction book.

So please, start writing back with proposals like "I propose that Fighter's name be Nathan."... except maybe only 4 letter names

I hope I'm not sounding too pushy. Please let me know if I'm being too aggressive.

I started this thread on a Tuesday. Should I give it another full week instead of ending the proposal deadline on the 6th?

Edit by Kishi: Don't double-post.

Is this honestly really necessary? I mean, isn't it much easier to just call them "Fighter", "BM", "Thief", etc.? Besides, newbies to the forums would get confused...

Newbieboy001: Who's "Karn"?
Veteranman345: lol He is the Fighter. We call him Karn. Silly newbie! lolol!

Chaos would ensue... Chaos I tells ya!

EDIT: *remembers he likes the chaos* I shall suggest "Karn", then.

For me it's always been,

Fighter = Thor
BB = BLee (Bruce Lee)
Thief = Seth
RM = Palo
BM = Merl
WM = Norm

If you really need things like names to be set in stone, then FFI may not be the game for you.

I'm using the official Final Fantasy Origins Strategy guide and the little booklet that came with the game. I'm not sure which used which names.
