Aerith is her japanese Game - Aeris is a mistranslation, but the S and the TH sounds are interchangeable in japanese so her name is always pronounced like "Air-ris"

Yea, she is Aeris in America but it was because of a mistranslation. Seems like they'd kind of pick up on something like that... a main chracter and all. Anyhow, I think I've heard that even though her US name is Aeris, they're just going to call her Aerith anyhow and pretend like it never happened. Although I guess the pronounciation won't change.

I sometimes call her Aries , pronounced AIR - EASE , or Airith, pronounced AIR - ITH

Prefer the American way to be honest...

Aerith is pronounced - AIR - ITH ....(pronounce the ITH bit more)

Aeris is pronounced - AIR - EASE (as in, i did it with 'ease', AIR - EASE)

Both sound different, but mean the same character.

Hope that helps.
