nordopolica Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Hi guys, looks like we got some new names from Twitter. Can't link for some reason (maybe because I'm new??), but it's Jenni Lada on Twitter. She posted about her online team. Siegbert and Soleil are the same, thankfully, but Forrest...? Please tell me that's not Foleo. Edit: Oh, and Shigure's the same too. Yeah looks like Foleo is Forrest Gump. I'm always looking forward to see what new names they come up with so tbh I'm kind of underwhelmed with the three that stayed the same (still happy, though!)

Shadowess Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Forrest…okay then? Huh. So Shigure, Siegbert, and Soleil kept their names! Cool... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FEHypeTrain Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Thanks, guys! Yeah, can't say I'm particularly happy with the name, especially for one of my faves. But it's not so bad that I can't get used to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I could be wrong, but isn't Forrest a gender neutral name? If so it would fit his character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nordopolica Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) I could be wrong, but isn't Forrest a gender neutral name? If so it would fit his character. Hmm, pretty sure it's generally a masculine name, but nowadays almost every name is used for any gender. I think they chose it because... Foleo...Forrest. I guess it's that and Byrnhildr (Leo's tome) summons trees. So Forrest. Oh yeah this too. Nice catch!

Axie Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) the only name changes I did not like at all are the ones repeating names from previous FE games. like, there is a THIRD art(h)ur now. wtf treehouse. just do a damn google search to check for repeated names.

FEHypeTrain Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) Yeah, and in Katakana, I think it's only one sound off. Fo-re-o into Fo-re-st. So it makes sense. And I'm sure the name'll grow on me. (Edit: Meant for that to reply to nordopolica's observation but oh well) Edited February 12, 2016 by FEHypeTrain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konnor97 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Forrest could be worse. I wonder how many times my brain will forget and call him something like Florence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyfoster Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) The change to Forrest is kinda weird for me mostly because I have a friend that knows him as "the Maribelle look-a-like". Iunno it sounded better saying "the Maribelle look-a-like, Foleo" than saying "the Maribelle look-a-like, Forrest". If going to gender neutral Francis may have been better imo. I'll probably get used to it though, considering that I'm already used to my favorite husband, Laslow. I'm also good with Soleil, Siegbert, and Shigure staying the same. However, there was a part of me that after seeing it suggested, would have loved to see Soleil get localized to Sunny. It would have been a more unnecessary change, but one I could embrace like the change from Crimson to Scarlet. EDIT: Now considering Leo's tome, the name Forrest has grown on me more. The Nohr brother's a freaking NERDS. Edited February 12, 2016 by ladyfoster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nordopolica Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I like that Soleil went unchanged because it's a super pretty name and fitting for his daughter, but I also can't wait to hear how many people pronounce it Solayl and trust me I already know a few. I really can't wait to see what the other kids' names have in store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebony Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) So did both of the Nohr brothers name their sons after their personal weapons Because that's pretty cute Ryouma: Ah! A daughter! I'll name her Raiko! Sakura: its a boy Ryouma: SHINO IT IS Edit: and with this line of thinking kisaragi would just be "fuu" or "jin" Edited February 12, 2016 by Ebony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke of Dozel Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) You guys do realize Forrest is a reference to Leo's tome, which literally sprouts trees and is Earth based?Edit: I guess so haha Edited February 12, 2016 by Duke of Dozel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tolvir Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Run Forrest run? I'm serious if there isn't a Forrest Gump reference in one of his supports I am going to be disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) I like the change from Foleo to Forrest. Though I'll be highly disappointed at any and all Forrest Gump references. brb finding a good ginger for Aqua to marry EDIT: If the producers were inane enough to let me marry him, I'm totally making an avatar named Sagiri.

SniperGYS Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Forrest? Oh well, sounds ok to me... Still a boy right? It's ok, at least sounds similar to Foleo I'm happy Shigure keep his name! Congratz boy! Now... I hope Kisaragi keep his name too So Siegbert keeps his name huh. I'm prepared for jokes about Xander naming his son after his sword. Oh, I actually make a joke about that in my fanfic... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
December Knight Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) I'm glad Soleil and Shigure are the same, although I kinda wish Siegbert was changed into something else, like Sieghard but eh. So Forrest, huh? I know it's most likely a reference to Leon's tome and all but for some reason, I just can't see Leon naming him that. Some Nurse or whatever : Here is your son, sir. Leon : Ah yes, thank you. Leon's Wife : Have you thought of a name for him? ...You're not going to name Bryn or something, right? Leon : No, no. I am not like Xander. (Xander : Hey!) Leon's Wife : Then what will be his name? Leon : Hmm. (Looks at some random forest) ...Perfect. I think it would have been cuter if he's name was Bryn or Brynsley. Would have kept the reference and look better but whatever. So now only Shinonome, Kisaragi, Grey, Mitama, Hisame, Velour, Ignis, and Lutz are left. I can't wait to see them.

mariovsonic999 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) The tweet saids that Ophelia is the same. Edited February 12, 2016 by mariovsonic999 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FEHypeTrain Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) Actually, it's nothing exciting, but Ophelia was apparently confirmed on the same twitter a day ago. Again, sorry I can't link guys, but if you just scroll down a bit on Jenni Lada's posts, she mentions how "Sophie, Nina, Ophelia, and Midori" joined her army. She also replied to someone asking about Draj (which is why I was back on her page to begin with). Apparently Draj is now Candace. Neither of these tweets had photos, but as it's the same reviewer as before, I assume we can trust them. Edit: Ninja'd. But hey, glad to have a link for it!
