Aerith, Or Aeris?; Which is the correct way?

Hello again, I come about a question I have been pondering for some days.

In these forums, the remaining Cetra is addressed as Aerith. OK, sounds strange to me because in the American Verison of the game she is addressed as Aeris Gainsborough.

Is it just translation from japanese? :ermm:
Thank you, have a nice day.

May Cloud and Aeris live forever!!

Actually, originally, in the american FFVII demo, it had the correct way 'Aerith' but for some reason changed to 'Aeris' for the full game release. It actually is suppose to be Aerith. In the FFVII japanese manuals and official sites had it Aerith (in roman letters) before it came to america, so it was always meant to be Aerith. Square America corrected their mistake with Kingdom Hearts, where her name became Aerith, rather than the FFVII game's Aeris.

I prefer Aeris, probably because I'm more used to it. Aerith isn't bad at all though; I particularly like how it's an anagram of 'i earth' (coincidence?)

I go with Aeris. Aerith just sounds like you're lisping when you talk.

Funny thing, they made the mistake in FF Tactics when they refer to Sephiroth, they replace the th with an S.

I like how Aerith looks to how Aeris looks. So when typing, I always type Aerith. :) As for speaking, I saw Aeris cause that's just how I'm used to saying it.

I'm like this too, except I switch around with Aeris and Aerith while speaking. It doesn't really matter to me which one people use even though I prefer Aerith.

I just don't like it when people start saying "It's Aeris! NOT Aerith!" or visa versa. -_-

I just prefer Aeris since I like the sound better and I'm used to it, but either one is very fine with me.

I first heard about Aerith in a game magazine called Gamefan. Early articles in that magazine called her Ealis (also, Cloud was Claude and Barret was Bullet :whistle: ). Then they referred her as Aerith. Then when the game was released, it said her name was Aeris so I started calling her that. But nowadays, I like typing her name as Aerith rather than Aeris (it's more fun IMO :P). But even though I start calling her Aerith, I find the name, Aeris, prettier to hear.
