| Final Fantasy VIII The first game in the series to consistently use realistically proportioned characters, FF8 also threw more of a futuristic mix into the old (Hi-)potion that is Final Fantasy. |

It's a little odd I guess that you can only rename some of the characters in FFVIII, as opposed to say FFIX. I kept Squall and Rinoa the same, I tried playing FFIX once with different character names and it felt a bit odd, so since then I always stick to the originals.

I usually name the main character my name... >.>
Considering the amount of times I've played FFVIII..
Squall - Ian
Rinoa - Rinoa or some girl I probably liked..

Yeah, keeping the names the same is better for the first time you are playing the game.

I left the names the same; I haven't changed character names in several years. Unless, of course, you have to put character names in at the beginning of the game (earlier FFs, for example).

I named Squall Leo, I don't exactly know why, but I think it was because of my Zodiac sign.
And I named Rinoa Tara, again I don't know why.

Squall: Barek
Rinoa: Adara
I named them after the two lead characters of my novel. That helped inspire some new characteristics into my own character. He's developed a stubborn streak. >.> And emo. God has he gone emo.
