I gave them all nicknames from people in shows and movies that I like:
Zidanne: Clint (I named him after Clint Eastwood, because I was a big fan of his at the time, after watching Dirty Harry)
Garnet: Lea (I had been a big Lea Thompson fan at the time, so I thought it would perfect for her)
Vivi: Harry (At the time I thought it a great name for him because I thought it suited him well, and I was a big Dirty Harry Fan)
Steiner: Magnum (I originally wanted to name him Callahan after Dirty Harry, but I didn't have enough room. So I change it to Magnum after his gun)
Freya: Troi: (Simple-- I named her after Counselor Deanna Troi from Star Trek TNG)
Eiko: Annie (I named her after Annie from the movie "Annie" that I saw as a young kid and I really liked it, plus I thought it really suited her well)
Amarant: Red (After I heard he was called the flamming-- something, I decided to name him Red, because of his flamming red hair)
Quina: Junior (Oh, my God, I couldn't tell if Quina was a he or she so I picked the name Junior, because it's a name for a boy and girl)
Pretty cool, huh?

I never changed the names of the FFIX characters, because I don't change them the first time through. I don't like this game, so I never played it again... But I did change FFVIII and those names were funny. Well, really, my brother changed the names. For some reason, he named Squall "Moo Man" and Rinoa was "Jack!" and Angelo was "Meow6.0" or something, but with the letters with the foreign accents over them. It was kind of funny. And we also changed the GF's names. Let me tell you, that was a good time. Unfortunately, I was just goofing around one day and I saved over my file that I was almost done with with the Moo Man file. So I had to beat the game with Moo Man and Jack!... lol

If I happen to go through this game, I may rename some of the characters, but so far my characters are:
Zidane-(The same, although I may rename him Jay-Z)
The Princess-Beyonce
Vivi-Busta
Steiner-Drago
I'm only on the first disk, and I'm assuming there will be more characters to name soon.
