Re: Weird Character Names

[(Anonymous)]

The character names in the Phoenix Wright games are something else, mostly in a good way or an I-cant't-believe-this-works way. I think they hit the top of the latter category with Apollo Justice. The title character, Klavier which is literally German for piano, where have you actually heard the name Trucy before yet it fits her so well and sounds almost normal, *Wocky Kitaki and Alita Tiala*?!?!?!

Alita Tiala is weird but her Japanese name was also an anagram so I get why they went in that direction. Wocky's name is at the bottom of things that annoy me about Wocky :P

On the topic of really weird names, have you played Spirit of Justice? It's like they looked at the Khura'inese characters and then just said, "fuck it." And I wouldn't mind some of them but the spelling makes it worse... case in point, Pees'lubn Ahndistan'dhin. At least the DLC case tried to come up with actual names.

Re: Weird Character Names

Yeah, but they could have given Alita an anagram name that was actually... a name. Like Lisa Basil from one of the earlier games. Wocky too for that matter, since his name in Japanese was also backwards, and both (Kitaki Takita and Namina Minami) could theoretically be real people's names.

I haven't played Spirit of Justice, but I had to look at that name several times before I understood what it was supposed to be. That would probably drive me crazy.

Re: Weird Character Names

Well, Alita by itself is a real name... just not terribly common. Tiala is debatable, though I've also seen it used as slang. I suppose they could have tried a little harder, or not chosen something that isn't well-known. But I'll take Tiala over anything that's trying too hard to sound like a phrase.
