You realize that Tidus name in Japanese is ティーダ right? Teeda, no S. You don’t need to attempt to pronounce the English names in a similar fashion to the Japanese. These names are never voiced acted in English, say them however the fuck you want.

>Is wrong, it's You-fie
it's actually yoo-fieh. the yoo pronounced like the u in put. the fieh pronounced with a dipthong combination of the short i and e sounds.
>Is wrong, it's Sai-fur
that's also incorrect. ei is pronounced as a dipthong of the short e and short i sounds, so it sounds more like the anglo long a, like say-fur.

Anyone that pronounces it 'Tie-fuh' is a fucking psychopath. Also, Aerith is retarded and Aeris is objectively better sounding.
