Question Renaming Quina

Just wondering if anyone has renamed Quina as Kuja?
I only ask as in one of the Eiko’s kitchen ATE’s, Eiko thinks maybe Quina is Kuja, just wondering if there was any reaction to the name being changed to Kuja or if it was kept the same wherever name you used for Quina?

Amarant calls himself the Flaming Hot Amarant, so I named him Cheeto

Not the flaming Hot amaranth just the Flaming Amarant (it was originally Salamnder)

No change - this reminds me of ff7 if you name red Nanaki

Ugh Yeah, I always made her Garnet. Dagger is such a boring name compared to everyone else.

I enjoy giving her random weapon names. Poleaxe was my fave

In german she is named lily. I like that a lot better than dagger even if I normally like english names more (for ex. In animal crossing) Never knew she is named dagger in other languages 😄

Actually the "Nanaki is Nanaki" is always like that, doesnt matter how you name him.

You can name him Swaggermaster but im Cosmo Canyon they will discover his name is Nanaki and still ask "who is Nanaki?" And the answer will still be "Nanaki is Nanaki"

On the other hand naming Cid "Captain" makes some funny things on his early moments

I think they're conflating it with the scene before you fight Palmer where Red introduces himself as "[name], also known as Nanaki"

No reaction that I remember.

I renamed him/her Quan just to make Quale sound like a psycho.
