A screenshot of a tweet from user ShinraArch (Shinra Archaeology Department) that says “FFVII Rebirth Director Naoki Hamaguchi says that Cait Sith’s name is pronounced “Cat Shee.” (Game Informer Shows, 12/21/2023)”. Attached on the tweet is a 3D model of Cait Sith from FF7 Rebirth on a black background

I am hoping someone, just someone, maybe Cid or Red XIII would call him Cat Shit.

Couldn’t care less. I’ll just call the character what I always have.

You’re free to pronounce it however you want, but considering it’s named after a famous mythological character, you may get funny looks as if you referred to similar mythological characters as “Jod”, “Hey-zeus”, “Bud-hah”, or “Hurk-yoolz”.

I’m not sure how, but I’ve somehow been able to learn his name in Japanese and English and the difference between the two never stuck out at me…

What is it in Japanese? Feel free to use Hiragana or Katakana, whichever is accurate

ケット シー

Too few people have heard his theme song from Mobius Final Fantasy.

Oh wow, I’ve never even heard of Mobius FF. That song bops

The rest of the soundtrack is great too, It was my favorite gacha I played, probably because it was the least exploitative gacha I’ve ever played. Sadly, it wasn’t doing too well and shut down in 2020 as development for Final Fantasy VII Remake was ramping up, and they need all hands on deck in Business Division 1.

25 year old mystery finally solved! My best friend at the time,and I always argued about it. He was also dislexic and kept calling Sephiroth, “Seprinoph”.

You’ve just unlocked a painful childhood memory of mine. A childhood friend pronounced Sephiroth as “Seph-eye-roth” and Tifa as “Tiffay”

Oddly, he got Aerith right.

Guile = Gooey Leh

I kept mispronouncing Red13 as Red7, but on hindsight, his real name is Nanaki, so I was close.

I remember reading The Hobbit when I was six, and in my mind ogre was ogray

It was “ogg-ree” for me.

my childhood friend called him “seh-pirth”

Yeah, it’s named after this guy from celtic folklore.

The demonic cat-sith called Big Ears could be summoned (Gaelic taghairm Scottish Gaelic pronunciation: [tɤrʲɤm]) to appear and grant any wish to those who took part in the ceremony. The ceremony required practitioners to burn the bodies of cats over the course of four days and nights.

wow
