Do You Rename your characters

Hey guys, im new to the forums and Im just wondering if you all rename your characters in the older FF games or if you keep there names as they are. Im about to restart FFVII , I never completed it and when i played it before i felt that adding my own names made it a more unique adventure, but now im older i think im going to leave it lol. Anyways vote away

I tried it once and got really twitchy about it, to the point I had to re start the game

Im the same wth the colour of the menus and shit like that, I changed that once aswel (FFVII), and I had to write the numbers down so I could change it back to EXACTLY how it was

I'm a bit weird like thst

Restarting VII are you? Well, good luck with that. As for me, now, I never change the names. I just leave them as is! Of course, when I was younger I believe I did it a few times. But yes, now, I totally leave them as is. It is nice to have the option to change them! It does give you a chance to shorta make the story your own.

No. In order to discuss with other people who I'm talking about, I usually keep the same names so I don't get confused.

I first played through FFIX as my first game and I changed Zidane and Vivi's names at first, but then went back and default named them once I got the Namingway card later on.

No, I tend not to rename the characters now. Before hand, I used to change them to different names, but I guess as I grew older I prefered to keep the original names.

i tend to stay away from name changes. the only time I changed a name is when playing FFVI. I changed Strago's name to OLDGUY

I LOVE renaming my characters. xD Terrible guilty pleasure..
