Garnet or Dagger

[Durga]

I usually keep her name "Dagger" because that one ending line wouldn't sound right with any other name... though if I'm doing a playthrough where I change everybody's names I usually pick some other weapon just so it works out.

She walks down the hill and asks zidane what the weapon she is holding is...he replies a dagger. She looks up and goes ' from now on I will be called....' I re-called her Garnet so when she said it she sounded stupid..

Ehat did you call her? All funny names welcome too!

P.S I had no idea where to put this.

I name her Dagger because it's the default. I thought that it will have some reference later in the story. I don't change the default names, with the exception of Aeris. I renamed her Aerith.

I named her Ruby tbh.......

Hi, for future reference, try not to write short posts like this, because it can be considered as spam. Elaborate your point a little, when you can. Thanks! =)

Well, first time you get to name her, I name her Garnet. Second time, I name her Dagger.

I usually just stick to the original names of the characters for the heck of it. GUess it keeps talking about the game with other people less confusing.

I also stuck with the default names for Garnet. So, she was Garnet the first time around, then Dagger the second time. I prefer the name "Garnet" over "Dagger" because it suits her well. Plus, I think that's her birthstone? If not, the "garnet" stone is still awesome because it enables you to summon Bahamut, sooo~ xD;

The name "Dagger" isn't too bad though. I thought it was kinda cute how she tried to toughen up her attitude && hide her princess demeanor. :p Plus, the transition to the name "Dagger" symbolized her independence from the royal way of life, which added loads to her character development imo.

Dagger. Like so many others, silly or not, I stick with the default names. Watching my girlfriend play some games is pain to me, because she'll not only change the names, she'll make them into swearwords. (Though not when she actually intends to FINISH a game. Thank god for that.)

My only exception so far has been Red XIII in FFVII. I changed him to Nanaki a couple times. I never understood why he didn't just give his real name. At least in Dagger's case the new name serves a purpose, albeit one that's abandoned relatively early.

I think it'd be pretty funny to have all the characters named after swear words, lol. I also started naming Red XIII "Nanaki" after I found out his real name. I think it sucks that there was no option to change his name 'cause Red XIII is his "experimental specimen" name, y'know? Why would he want to keep a name like that? o.O

I've always kept it as Dagger. Like everyone before me has said, it's symbolism, the game wants her named that, and I think it's a 'cool' name. It fits her personality - Dagger's don't necessarily belong in a royalty type setting *neither does she*.

I name her Sarah because I hated the name Dagger, re-naming her back to Garnet seemed silly and I like the whole pre-FF reference to Princess Sarah so...maybe this time I'll name her "Serah" just to be a smart-ass
