Question, am I the only one who pronounces Tidus (Tide-us) as opposed to (Tédus)? I thought it was (Tide-us) because he represents water... and Tides like tidal waves of water....
Well the correct way to pronounce it is Tédus. with a hard e... You can hear Waka say his name in the start of Kingdom hearts and whats her face from KHII... thats the right way to say the name.
Officially it's Tee-dus, but like you I prefer to say it as Tide-us. It sounds like and actual name (Titus) and reflects the "tide" theme he has going for him. Though, I hear he and Yuna are supposed to represent the sun and the moon, respectively. Technically, Tidus's thing isn't water, but sun.
