If you've read the updates about Final Fantasy XIII, they already gave a name to that big guy with a gun they previously called, "Mr. 33 cm." Umm... I'm glad they already give him a name. Anyway, it's "Snow". So, Snow is gonna fight alongside Lightning... Hmmm... Maybe will see Hurricane soon and Tsunami. :P

Rain is not a far possibility with that Rain guy, a super superstar in S. Korea (or is he Taiwanese?)

I hope they don't. If anymore characters are named after the weather we'll have to start calling the game Final Weather or Weather Fantasy:?.

I guess SE has a man crush on the Metal Gear series. The bad guys in those games always got some off the wall name that reflects on things or feelings.

I can't help feeling that the name "Snow" feels a little girlish for a man with a "Sabin-Zell-Wakka" esque attitude. :P

Perhaps these names are just codenames for the characters, perhaps they're part of a rebel alliance and they feel the need to have codenames for each other. I'd prefer to think it's that than have weather names

perfectly sound theory...dunno if thats right though. Also, dunno if we'll get something a bit more manly through localization of the game to English :S

about the names, i think if they just keep the japanese names in the english translation, it would sound better than rembembering all the characters as weather. i can see someone now,"what's his name again? hmm. lets see, rain, ice, fog,snow... i got it!"

^ I'm pretty sure that 'snow' is much easier to remember for English speakers than whatever it is called in Japanese. :P

I'm sure you'll get over it eventually. I remember laughing pretty hard when I realized that the FFVII's protagonist was called 'Cloud', yet it doesn't sound bad at all now.

With all this reference to elements as names, I wonder where Captain Planet fits in all this. It's like the new breed of Planeteers.

I have a theory (may not be a good one but oh well...)

Going back to what was said about being part of a rebel alliance, maybe they've got their names from the type of magic they use?

I like the two ideas that I hope they are code names, and if not they should have kept there names in japanese, well who knows maybe over there in Japan the names Snow and Lightning must sound pretty cool right now.
