5. Genis Sage (Tales of Symphonia)
4. Kluke (Blue Dragon)
3. Cait Sith (Final Fantasy VII)
2. Fayt Leingod (Star Ocean: Till the End of Time)
1. BUTZ (Final Fantasy V)


*cries* not my beloved Butz! (Later, his name was changed to BARTZ in the re-releases...but his name was BUTZ)
 
GENIS??? What the heck ??? that's because they don't know that genius sounds horrible in english >_>... like in japanese pronounciation sounds better.
 
lol well it seems the fault lieth in the names of the J names of the Tales characters, lol. I cant believe that Raines name was "refill" though.

I thought Red XIII was a worse name than Cait Sith, especially since I always have to delete the "XIII" just to be picky.

in my second playthrough i changed his name to nanaki
 
In Tales of the Abyss, they should have kept Legretta's name the same as the Japanese version, where it was Regret. But I don't know if that's really that bad. It went with the music theme they had going with the villains.

Most of the Eternal Sonata names were kind of lame. I mean, Polka? They could have thought of something better for the lead female character.
 
i liked legretta :'(.

in tales of the abyss the only name that really bothered me was guy becuase... well i understand they had to change his name but why guy xD and then call his full name gailardia?
 
Oh tne I think the name is perfect, Guy--->Gailidaria or whatever.

I think Magical Starsign had some of the most creative/cheesy names. I cant exactly remember any exact ones but I do now that most of the boss type people made me laugh so much.
 
Genis did have the best lines,
"Taking me on with Magic"
"Amatuers" (when he saved Chocolat)
"Form a torrential vortex and engulf the evil spirits. Tidal wave! " (ultimately my favorite one)
