Cachusha: [09-02-2009] I never thought you abnormal this is just a precaution haha and it looks good on you. Cheers dragoon - RamesesII Battle Bamboo: [11-04-2009] I laughed when I saw it said long and slender, shows how mature I am haha anyway you know how people say "I wouldn't touch it with a 6ft pole" well this is a 6ft pole cheers. - RamesesII


I call him Tie-dus as well, since in FFX no one ever really says his name, so it's up to the player to figure out how to pronounce it. I will admit that when I heard his name said in Kingdom Hearts as Tee-dus, I was like, "who the heck is that?"

Oh, and Selphie in KH2 pronounces it "Tie-dus", which REALLY threw me through a loop. Didn't they just establish in the first game that it was Tee-dus?

Tie-Dus sounds alot better than Tee-dus, thats just awkward .but theres this name "controversy' and then with Aerith and Aeris also,which actually got mixed up in translation ,In japanese FFVII i believe its Aerith and when they translated it into english they made the mistake of Aeris,therefore thats the reason why they brought the original name back to KH, well thats why i think they name her Aerith in Kh.dont quote me on this!

I think [Tee-Dus] is too harsh a pronunciation. [Tie-Dus] sounds faster and in my opinion, better. For me, [Tee-Dus] is a horrible name.

I have always pronounced it Tie-dus, and that is the way it will always be for me. I'll just deny it if Dissidia changes it to Tee-dus. (I'm stubborn. )

For some reason I have ALWAYS called him Tee-dus...when I actually tried to say Tie-dus that sounded awkward....and since they never say his name in the game...it didn't help...

*and as strange as it is i have heard people arguing over Materia saying it is pronounced : Mee-tra insted of Ma-tear-ea...
I stand by Ma-tear-ea...mee-tra makes no sense

I have always pronounced it as Tee-dus, and always will. Tie-dus just sounds super strange to me and I don't feel like it matches him at all.

Tee-duss
It's what they say in a trailer, and pronouncing it Tidus just sounds the most natural in my own language. : )

I have always pronounced it Tie-dus. They pronounced it Tee-Dus in Kingdom hearts and Dissidia but I'm still pronouncing it Tie-dus. It just feels natural for me.

Yeah Wakka calls him Tee-dus in KH. I was like YES! And then Selphie goes and calls him Tie-dus just like that in the next game. But oh well it's not like anything in that game is canon anyway... Like Setzer. -cough-

Tie-dus sounds like a common americanization (is this a word?) to me. Or well. Not that either, but Tee-dus just sounds better and less...normal to me. Though the FFX cast doesn't have very "fantasy" like names anyway really. Lulu. Auron. Hmmm. But they work.

Tie-dus.
When I first read his name (before I even played the game!), I called him Tee-dus. I don't know why I changed it, but Tie-dus seemed to be the right version. I haven't played KH, so I don't know how they pronounce his name in that game. (And I haven't played Dissidia either xD")

Yeah, I was just thinking of the spelling really. Like. Time. Taim. ..or something.

@Freya: Well if you haven't played KH, you haven't precisely missed something to be honest. I haven't played Dissidia either, but I've tried it. A girl at school brought it with her today and I got to try it out. Man I need to save up for a PSP and that game now... : ( really nostalgic

Well, Selphie is STUPID! Final Fantasy VIII more than proved that! lol!

I always thought it was "Tie-dus", until I was contradicted by Teen Wakka in Kingdom Hearts. But I love what the lasses at Videogame Recaps call him: Tightass!
