coninsedence i think not!

i was talking to my dear papa today and i found out that the lead singer of pink floyd was call Cid Barret and as i asume you have already realise what i am on about (the characters cid and barret) anyway i was wondering weather if anyone had seen any off these things around or weather it is just a one off.
btw admins and mods if you think this is in the wrong section then move i was conflicting weather to put it in ID, general chat, music or meny meny more!

There's always a Cid, in just about every FF...but it would be interesting if thats where Barrets name came from rather than the green hat.

If it was from the green hat, his name would be Beret. =P
But yes, it's just all a huge coincidence. There's always been at tradition for FF to have a Cid in every one. xD

Interesting, it'd be cool if the characters were named after that but to be honest, I dont think they were.

Cid probably came from someone the creator of FF knew and decided to put him in his video games.

Barret. Well who knows?

Somebody use to work for the squaresoft executives in America and his name was Red Strife. (Look in Game Informer December 1995 and it talks about him)

Well, taking a look at another classic Square game, Chrono Trigger, and there were Ozzie, Flea and Slash.

Ozzie being Ozzy Osbourne
Flea is the basist for the Chili Peppers
Slash is the guitarist for Guns n Roses/ Velvet Revolver.

So, it is a bit of a possibility. Factor in Pink Floyd's influence on music worldwide, and the theory looks good. Anyone try to sync up The Wall or Dark Side of the Moon with the storyline?

ummmm, since the late 60's, and the Wall was in it's heydey in the 80s, which means it probably could have had a huge influence on the designers, if they were in their late teens/ twenties.

It was a coincidence probably. But their personalities could possibly have been shaped by this guy. I don't know much about him but I'm guessing that they looked at him since he had the name of two of their characters.

And Barret is named because of his gun arm. A barret is kind of a gun.
