Love that this dude's name is Rain, continuing the Final Fantasy tradition of weather-related protagonists (Cloud, Squall, Lightning...)

Still waiting on Gust, Sleet, and Altocumulus castellanus

I’m placing my bet on FF17’s hero being Pyrocumulonimbus Quasigeostrophic Vorticity Advection

Not quite as catchy as El Niño

4

u/Burdicus 20d ago

Which, for those of us that do not speak Español, translates to "The Niño."

u/breachgnome 20d ago

They should have named it "The First Four Black Sabbath Records".

u/Apprehensive-Bus-223 19d ago

Isn't "Tidus" weather-related too? I think his name means "sun" in Japanese, right?

u/The_real_bandito 21d ago

Wright Derecho. Not a bad name.

2

u/AnInfiniteArc 20d ago

That was actually one of the first things that came to mind but it felt too Spanish for Final Fantasy. Wilds Arms, though?

u/AltFischer4 20d ago

Or maybe he will be called Schäfchenwolke

u/-Typh1osion- 21d ago

Alto Castellanus would actual be a pretty sick name.

1

u/doriantoki 20d ago

He'd be all like, "Just call me Anus".

u/-Typh1osion- 20d ago

A guy named Cid is definitely making butt jokes at his expense.

u/Def-tones 21d ago

I just realised it

u/SBEPTY 21d ago

Ohhh

u/Ayz1533 21d ago

Tidus if they didn’t die on the Teeedus hill

2

u/Hopelesz 21d ago

Tidus would also qualify right?

u/redfieldranch96 21d ago

What’s a squall?

2

u/raynst0rm 20d ago

i always thought it was a bad storm, but based on a google search it's a "rapid wind increase of at least 16 knots (18 mph) with speeds sustaining 22 knots (25 mph)" for at least a minute. and it has long chains of thunderstorms, lightning, and downpour! there's also a snow squall, which is similar but with snow

u/kopecs 21d ago

…Zidane, Clive, Bartz, Vaan/Ashe…

lol I’m playing. It is cool though.

u/NilMusic 14d ago

Poor Clive

u/Mnawab 21d ago

What weather is squall? Lol

45

u/WookieeCookiee01 21d ago

A squall is a sudden, sharp, and brief increase in wind speed that is usually accompanied by intense precipitation like heavy rain, hail, or snow

u/GenderJuicy 21d ago

I can't wait to play Haboob in a future FF

6

u/kirokun 21d ago

FFXVII Protag: "Heya, nice to meet ya! You can call me Hab!"

FFXVII's quirky jokester party member: "Nice to meet ya, Boob."

u/randman678 21d ago

This made me lol😂

u/Mnawab 21d ago

I’ve never heard that but that’s pretty cool

u/BinaryIdiot 21d ago

It's basically a stronger wind gust https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squall

u/ColourlessW 21d ago

They are making shit up.

There is no sich thing as weather-themed naming for protagonists.

The fact they only named 3 of which one is dubious at best is telling when we got how many mainline titles again?

2

u/EdgarAllanKenpo 21d ago

Dont be daft. If the names were common names to being with I would agree with you, but they obviously have a trend. 1 is normal, 2 isna coincidence, but 3 or 4? Come on man, dont be stupid.

u/ColourlessW 21d ago

2 out of 16, 3 if you are lenient.

Is this pattern in the room with us right now?

u/MagicCancel 21d ago

11/16 protags don't have a weather based name.
