Here's mine... I played it 2 times, I'm now playing FF6j.
Terra: Skye
Locke: Ricky
Sabin: Jade
Edgar: David
Celes: Lille
Cyan: Stefan
Relm: Kitka
Gau: Aslan
Strago: Kelnor
Gogo: Tiares
Setzer: Ellis
Shadow: Wind
Umaro: Pippo
Mog: Skip
2nd time around, I named everyone with the name w/ same pronounciation (okay,
I stretched it a little) as Chris. Chris, chrys, kris, cris, khris etc.etc.
(yes, that got to be confusing.)
With FF6, I gave them cute cute names with -chan and -kun attached. (Tina =
Tii-chan, Edgar = Et-kun, Mash = Maa-kun etc. Gau is named Chibisuke,
however... and Shadow is Shadow written in hiragana ^_^)

> I'm just curious... =>
I myself don't do it (yeah I'm an unimaginative person) but my frien does
and this is one that I remember best:
Shadow: Toasty
I always have a reason for my castings...
Terra: Megan (someone I... liked back in high school. Terra IS the heroine,
after all.)
Locke: Corey (the same devil-may-care attitude)
Sabin: Marc (one of two identical twins I know. Marc's the more athletic one.)
Edgar: Mike (see above.)
Celes: Susan (appropos, as it turned out; Susan's a good singer.)
Cyan: Rei (yes, me. I'm the one with all the friends, after all. <g>)
Relm: Mia (my little sister. Obvious reason.)
Gau: Pat (I dunno. Just something about Pat's personality...)
Strago: Elton (we used to make good natured fun of him in high school, and
I do the same to Strago. <g>)
Gogo: Aaron (see above; similar reason.)
Setzer: Sean (he's the one who loaned me FF3; both big game players.)
Shadow: Darryl (didn't know about Daryl; Darryl's the dark, somber type too.)
Umaro: Kirby (BIG guy I knew in high school. Football player, etc.)
Mog: Kyle (street-smart, slam dancing... <g>)
Rei "Leaper" Nakazawa
Sometimes I forget their "real" names in favor of mine!
Terra: Aurora
Locke: Carlos
Celes: Erica
Edgar: Gaspar
Sabin: Stefan
Strago: Oscar
Relm: Irene
Gogo: Roque
Gau: Tadeo
Mog: Pedro
Cyan: Andres
Umaro: Aqiles
Shadow: Okami ('k, so it's Japanese. Sue me;)
Setzer: Rafael
Here's my names:
Terra - Mystra (I always name Rydia that. The two seem alike.)
Locke - Michal (My other name)
Edgar - Blair (Me! Because if anything happened to me, all the
world's women would grieve! Yea, right.)
Sabin - David (My brother. He's anything but my twin, however.)
Shadow- Shadow (It sounds cool)
Celes - Laura (Ex-girlfriend. Might name Celes Erin next time.;)
Cyan - Aragon (Couldn't fit Aragorn, from The Lord of the Rings.)
Gau - Gau (I liked it)
Setzer- Dicer (I know it's lame, but I use Dice and Fixed Dice.)
Mog - Moogie (It sounds cute)
Strago- Merlyn (Legendary magician)
Relm - Kahren (Ex-girlfriend's other name. I really should get a
Rename Card. :)
Umaro - Gigas (Big ugly guys from SoM)
Gogo - Mirarr (Because he mirrors stuff. Mirror sounded stupid,
though.)
I sometimes switch names around, depending on my mood when they join
my party. I frequently use names from the Wheel of Time series of
books.
-Blair Mac Kenzie
Heh. I named them all after WoT characters once, too...
Terra - Nyneve
Locke - Rand
Sabin - Rhioen
Edgar - Mat
Celes - Elayne
Cyan - Lan
Relm - Egwene
Gau - Perrin
Strago - Logain
Gogo - Morane (don't you love butchering names to get them to fit?)
Setzer - Thom
Shadow - Elyas
Umaro - Troloc
Mog - Loial (so it's a stretch...)

I usually name my Edgar (my favorite character) after myself
and the rest of the characers after my frineds. I try to match my
friends personalities with the characters and name the characters
after them.

Terra - Sonnet (Get it?)
Locke - Dyluck
Edgar - Genji
Sabin - Guile (I'm so embarassed)
Shadow - Seeker
Setzer - Narsus
Gau - Elam (Hey, stop groaning!)
Celes - Ucchan
Cyan - Shiro
Mog - Muyou ('Cos he is)
Strago - Ged :)
Relm - Tatami
Gogo - Wataru (Because it's rather appropriate)
Umaru - Momo (Because it's rather INappropriate)
Too bad you can't rename characters tat don't join your party...

I tend to do that as well, but sometimes I will also name them after some of
my favorite anime characters as well. There isn't always a link between
similar characteristics in the characters and the source of their names
though, I jsut feel like naming them that way.

I kept 'em as they were, though I changed some names in FF2:
Palom - Astlin
Porom - Palin
Cecil - Llasar
Rosa - Vyrona
Yang - Fooji
Cid - Phil
ThE WizarD GlenliN
(and in SoM, my chars were Llasar, Katrin, and Pootis)
setzer=Aaron
umaro=dumb
gau=dumber
(ok, IMHO, those are the two worst characers)
gogo=daryl (well, it could be...)
Locke=joey (reminds me of a friend)
Terra: Morph
Locke: Steal
Sabin: Blitz
Edgar: Tools
Celes: Relic
Cyan: SwTech
Relm: Sketch
Gau: Leap
Gogo: Mimic
Strago: Lore
Setzer: Slot
Shadow: Throw
Umaro: Rage
Mog: Dance
I don't always name them after their special attacks. I usually just
leave them as they are.
Funny... in FF2 I named everyone 'Bob' once...the same game I got everyone
up to level 99. Makes Zermous a bit easier.
Hi all, I got a message from one Veronica who has dificulty with
her server writing to the newsgroups, so she's using me as a middleman.
Here's her list.
1.Terra: Marle
2.Locke: Sean
3.Edgar: G.J.
4.Sabin: Kevin
5.Shadow: Knife
6.Celes: Briony
7.Mog: Mog
8.Gau: Teeth
9.Relm: Bree
10.Strago: Labca
11.Setzer: Drail
12.GoGo: George
13.Umaro: Ugg
14.Cyan : Jadot
Terra: Gail, Cheryl, Jill
Locke: Lance, Reed
Edgar: Nigel, Aron, Adrian
(I always have trouble coming up with good twin names that sound OK with
"King" in front of them)
Sabin: Danyon, David, Joshua
Shadow: Azure, Mask (He's a toughie)
Celes: Raia, Angel
Cyan: Devon, Thorne, Julian
Gau: Ian, Wren
Setzer: Regis, Setzer, Damian
Strago: Graham, Isaac
Relm: Lisa, Julie
Mog: Jerin, Nails
Umaro: Baron, Choron
Gogo: Karma, Dion (very difficult!)
Some of these were used in an 'experimental' game I played through once with
standard capitalization ('Terra' instead of 'TERRA'), and were really just
for that purpose; Gail, Reed, and Angel were some of them. I always like to
play through a Square game with the original names the first time, of course,
but there are a few I'll never go back to. In Chrono Trigger, I'll never
play as 'Lucca' and 'Marle' again after using 'Julia' and 'Angel' for so
long! Changing Frog's name, OTOH, has never been a great success.

LOL! Me too! I could never stand to change the names in FF3 (I love the
characters so much) but I do change them sometimes for FF2 and CT.
In FF2 mine were:
Cecil: (he underwent a number of name changes- I think he ended up as Fish
or something)
Kain: Beebo
Rydia: She's my favorite character and I didn't have the heart to change
it..
Rosa: Binky
Tellah: OldGuy
Edward: Wuss or EdWood
Yang: POW! (yes, with the exclamation mark)
Palom and Porom: Beavis and Butthd
Cid: Scotty (you know, chief engineer of the Enterprise..)
FuSoYa: Yoda
Edge: Mojo
For CT I had:
Crono: Blarg
Marle: I forget
Lucca: Binky
Frog: Kermi (Kermit wouldn't fit)
Robo: R2D2
Ayla: Ogett (like Og the caveman- Ogette)
Magus: I couldn't change his name cause he's my favorite!
-erica
Can't think of any others... although once I did try to recapitalize the
names... didn't like the way it looked though.

When I name my characters, I usually give the main character (or if
there isn't any, the guy I think is the coolest) my name, and give
everybody else the names of my friends. I personally know that my
cousin names all his guys after people from "Forrest Gump" and "What's
Eating Gilbert Grape" with his favorites being Arnie, Lt. Dan, and
FatMa.
"All I am... is untapped potential"
I usually use either made up names, names of friends, or the
alcoholic names like in FF. :-)
Here's a few interesting ones:
Edgar: Erik
Terra: Emara
Shadow: Venom (I really like this!)
Celes: Sara
Locke: Rikus
Sabin: Gabeth
RM
Usually, I name everyone the same, the first time that I play the game.
After I have beat it once, then I name the main charactor me. The
charactors that usully remind me of someone that I know I name them that
person. I also usualy name the charactor that the main charactor likes
in the game my girlfriend.
What if the main character's a girl? ;-)

i usually name mine characters from robert jordans the wheel of time
rand being the main character, with locke or setzer , usually setzer being
matrim cauton, perrin is shadow since he has the dog
umaro is loial the ogier,
8i used to name the main guy either elob or turin--elob is made up
while turin is turin son of hurin, from tolkein unfinished tales
in the days of tuor and gondolin and morgoth
when that was the case, i would use tolkein names, lke in ff2, i would shorten
gandalf for tellah, or use frodo or bilbo for theives since they play the part
of burglars
lately though i just go with the defalut name since it doesnt take time to
think a name up

I usually give them names of charaters from my own stories and
comix I draw. Or I just make up cool ones.
Terra: Branah
Edgar: Cyriv
Sabin: Kain
Cyan: Bladen, Klinge
Shadow:Smoke, Shiro
Relm: Prisma (as in Prismacolor color pencils)
Strago:Ido
Umaro: Smash
Mog: Jimjam
Locke: Viron
Celes: Sarina
My friends like giving them silly names, AND IN ALL CAPS, TOO:
Edgar: EGGHED, DUNCAN (as in McCleod from Highlander)
Sabin: DIMWIT, BRUNO
Cyan: CRAZY
Mog: SORRY
Umaro: DUMMY
Shadow:BOZO, GINSU
Locke: LOKI
Setzer:NUTTY
Cyan: Emrald. *sigh* One more space would have been nice; so far, the
only SS games in which I can give the name "Emerald" to my character
have been FFMQ and SoE, =^( and the only game of SoE I've played
had Johnny Murata as the kid... can anyone catch the reference?
Actually, most of my main characters get named Em(e)rald: SoM's
hero, Cecil, the angel from Soul Blazer... it helps if they wield
a katana, though (that's why Cyan got "Emrald").
Setzer: Gambit
Gau: Mowgli
I occasionally play around with themed names for characters; my first game
of FF3 had a "Final Friendtasy" thing going:
Locke = Ross (When I did this the very first time through, I just about
FREAKED when it got to that bit about Rachel! I had NO idea!!!)
Edgar = Chand (ler)
Sabin = Joaii (sounds more fantasy-like than Joey)
Celes = Phoebe
I suppose Terra would translate to Monica okay, though Terra is much
cooler... They fit, darnit! =^)
Some other of my past faves:
Relm: Aliima (from Alex Mack)
Strago: Geezer
Ayla: Leela
Marle: Buffy
Frog: Robin (for Kermit's ultracool nephew) or Karma (good 5-letter
adaptation of Kermit, sounds classier than "Kermy")
Tellah: Baitor (perverse of me, I just love seeing what replaces "Master
Tellah! Master Tellah!" on screen...) =^)
Kain: Judas
Rydia: Lydia *ahem*
Shadow: Kage, Arashi
Terra: Karai, Lyrana
Sabin: Dolph, Kuma

I like to name the main character after me, and the main character's girlfriend after my
girlfriend. I name everyone else after what friend of mine they are most like. If the
main character is a girl I usually name her after my sister, name the coolest other male
character after me, and his girlfriend after my girlfriend. If I know a character's
going to die later in the game, I keep their given name.

-Kevin Lull, The Dawning
I know you didn't start this thread, but the original message has
expired and I want to share, too!
I really like Relm's name, Prisma!
Here's mine, though I'm not so sure about some of them anymore:
Terra - Sarah
Friend that moved away. Uh... don't have a great explanation for the
connection, but I made one somehow.
Locke - Jason
He's the mischevious type, too. Although he thinks Locke looks like a
pirate in his close-up. And he and Angela/Celes, see below...
Mog - Jesse
You know, the class-clown type. His dancing abilities are about as
silly as Mog's, too. He's also a little obsessed with his hair.
Edgar - Cavan
Me! What can I say, I'm a hero. I think Edgar's really cool; handling
responsibility and very smart.
Sabin - Chris
IRL, Sarah's boyfriend. There weren't any other real couples. Plus
Cat/Relm makes fun of him all the time like in the game. Supposed to be
my best friend, so I converted that into him being my brother.
Shadow - Matt
In our little group in a way... and not, all at the same time. I could
have come up with a better name... I'll change it.
Cyan - Les
Same kind of discipline.
Celes - Angela
Jason/Locke's girlfriend. Uh... not much else.
Setzer - Rob
Wants to join the Air Force... or has, he's gone now. So there's the
flying thing. And he's the same way with girls, but more successful.
Strago - Kovar
From Mr. Kovar, my English teacher in ninth grade. Funny guy, nice and
all. He's kinda got a Lore thing going because he acts the way the kids
all acted with him. Whatever we did to him he did right back and that
made the class fun. No relation to Relm/Cat or Shadow/Matt.
Relm - Cat
Whiny little girl. :) Makes fun of Sabin/Chris all the time. Not
really related to her father and grandfather from the game IRL.
Umaro - Never got a name for this one, but I know a lot of all-muscle,
no-brain types. But Umaro's nice... can't find the right match.
Gogo - Mike
Doing whatever everyone else does and acting like it was his own idea...
this gets annoying.
-Cavan
Terra:Espera or Espra
Locke:Swift
Edgar:Ken (SF2)
Sabin:Ryu (same)
Celes:Celes
Shadow:Blade, Viper or Dragon
Cyan:Roma (from Doma)
Gau:Kino
Setzer:AnteUp
Strago:OldMan, Gramps, Grampa
Relm:Houk
Mog:Otto
Umaro:Umaro
Gogo:RuPaul (pretty sure it's male but sometimes you wonder...)
And there you go!
KC :)
I went default mode for my first quest. Then, I used:
Terra: Valis (From Valis IV...and the name I wish I had been called)
Locke: Ryan (A really cute punk friend of mine)
Edgar: Swifty (From "The Little Prince" anime series)
Sabin: Bob (from that Ramone's song "Blitzkreig Dob")
Gau: Goku ( From Dragon Ball of course!)
Cyan: Merith (sounded like a fantasy sort of name)
Celes: Camile (From "The Twisted Tales of Spike McFang")
Setzer: Guido (From "Samurai Pizza Cats"...plus he's Italian)
Strago: Baka (Japanese for fool or idiot)
Relm: Akane (From Ranma 1/2)
Mog: Puyo (I think its a Japanese sound effect for "crash")
Umaro: Shaggy (From "Scooby Doo")
Gogo: Floss ( I was drunk...don't ask me)
Thats it!!!
The Otaku Princess
"Mom please come pick me up, I don't know where I am.
It's the last thing I'll ask, I just wanna LIVE FAST!"
-The Vandals
> I went default mode for my first quest. Then, I used:
[...]
> Strago: Baka (Japanese for fool or idiot)
Baka is more like "stupid" if I remember right.
I've never come up with any really exceptionally great names for the
characters in FF III, but I came up with some great character names for
EarthBound (who I'm currently playing with):
Ness: Billy
Paula: D'Arcy
Jeff: Matt
Prince Poo: James
The Dog: Bugg
Favorite Food: Pumpkin
Favorite Thing: Rockin'
Player's Name: Butch (or Flood, or Alan)
There you go! Smashing Pumpkins EarthBound! <;*)

I remember when I just got FFA for GB, and I was on a long car ride, so I
offered my mom a chance to play it. She did, and she named the boy, Boy,
and the girl, Girl. She later died on the first boss!=)

That's all the characters I have so far. I'm about half way thru and
haven't played for like 8 months. I must have about 20 games that are not
even a quarter of the way completed. Chrono Trigger, Secret of Evermore,
Wizardry 5, Breath of Fire, Lufia, Gargoyles Quest(!), Earthbound, Super
Metroid, Dragon Warrior 1(!!), 7th Saga, Shining Force 1 & 2, Land
Stalker, etc, etc. Now that I've got the computer, I haven't played
anything for like 3 months.
