T_T marluXia's one of my fave organization member.. and he gets a gay name.?! T_T

Jesus, would you stop calling things "gay" whenever you don't like something? It's offensive and utterly stupid. It's like saying "Namine is such a LoreiX."


Anyway...I always thought that Luxord, Xigbar, and Demyx were pronounced in-game in KH2. I could understand not pronouncing Luxord, because he purposely skips saying anything and goes right into the fight against him.

Anyway, I thought Luxord was (LUCK-Sword, like posted above), Xigbar was (ZIHG-bar), and Demyx was (DEHM-mix, or perhaps DEHM-mex). I guess, if Xion is pronounced as (SHE-on (or is it SHY-on?)), then Xigbar could be (SHIHG-bar), but...

I agree with Luxord and Xigbar, but Xion i beleive is pronounced Shee-on and Demyx would be Dem-ix.

I also agree with you. Xion should be pronounced "She-on" and Demyx "Dem-ix".​

...they're names. When possible, they're pronounced the same in all languages.

What you talking about? Xemnas and Xemunasu are two different pronounciations.

It's extremely common and likely for a name to be pronounced differently depending on the language.

For me, Xemnas and Xemunasu are the same. They're pronounced differently due to accent, not intention. You don't switch around sounds, you don't change 'e' sounds to 'a' or 'i'. That's what I meant by that. "Shee-on" Shouldn't be transformed into "Zai-on" just because it "works that way" in English. It's like so many people pronounce FFVII's Reno as "Rino", which isn't right.

After looking at all the guessing going on here, I'd say it looks like a tom-a-to - tom-aw-to kind of thing, you get me.

No,no,no, it is clearly more of a po-tay-to - po-taw-to

And I'm still pronouncing the names as I always have, not everyone says it exactly the same.

Xigbar - zig+bar
Demyx - dem+ex
Luxord - lukksord
Xion - shi+on
Roxas - ro+ha xD

Lulz, there was a Philippine president[or something of equal status] whose name was Roxas and it's pronounced "ro+ha" or "ro+has".
...But i like Roxas being said like "rocks+os".

Anyway, there's my bit. Though, all of the name pronunciations i've posted, save for the Roxas one, have already been stated.
._. oh well.
