At first I thought it was "tie-dus" but after hearing the way Wakka pronounced his name in KH, i started pronouncing it as "tee-dus". |

Yeh, they changed his name pronunciation in KHII to TIE-DUS from TEE-DUS. I still prefer the latter (since that's how I'm used to saying it) but o well... guess we can't all be winners on this one. XD~ |

I always called him TEE-DUS because I've read info in magazines back when it was still in production that his Japanese name was Tida (TEE-DAH) :blink:. |

But in KHI Wakka pronouced his name like "TEE-DIS" when he mentioned to Sora that they were going to do some exploring of the secret place. |

Um... that's what I meant when I said they changed the pronunciation of his name to TIE-DUS (KHII) from TEE-DUS (KH). o.O; |

Tie-dus is always how I pronounced it. I've only ever heard it differently on the bonus disk with FF X where the voice actor says Tee-dus. Tee-dus annoys me, when someone says that to me, I respond by saying Tie-dus and put the emphasis on "tie"

We are number one. All others are number two, or lower.

I don't know anymore! I started with Tiedus, switched to Teedus, now with KH2 saying Tiedus, I'm very torn! Maybe I'll just call him Dude. |

I have been talking to my brother some about it. My brother takes Latin 2 right now so I asked him how it is pronounced in Latin since it seemed kind of like Latin to me. He and I have always said Tee-Dus but he said in Latin it would be Tid-us. (Yes, you may giggle like I did.) BUT he believes that the real way to say it is Tie-Dus, yet we have chosen to keep saying it as Tee-Dus. Tee hee! ^^ |

I know in the first KH game they said Tee-dus, but I'm pretty sure in KH2 Selphie (or Kairi, I don't remember which) Said Tie-dus. My brother was always like "but in all SE interviews they say Tee-dus, so its official!" I guess SE caved in during KH2. Anyway, I prefer Tie-dus. EDIT- Yep, I double-checked. Selphie says "Tie-dus" in KH2. (even if it is only once, she does say Tie-dus! |

I used to think it was Tie-dus too. It just sounded better and made more sense.I also thought Tifa was pronounced Tiff-fah, not Tee-fah, and that Reno was pronouced Ren-no, not Ree-no -_- |

Tie-dus. I beleive Wacka only called Tidus Tee-dus in KH1 is because of his accent. He is Hawaiian, after all. *shrugs*
I say Tee-fa and Ree-no, though it's Reh-no, I think. (atleast that's how it sounded in the Japanese version) I don't like Ree-no for some reason. |

Wasn't Tidus' Japanese name "Tida"? Evenstar brought it up earlier, but confirmation would be nice since I'm not the least bit caught up on FFX news. Anyway, that would explain why Wakka pronounced it as "Tee-" and not "Tie-" in Japanese, which they probably brought over into the English version of KH1.My guess about them changing it to "Tie-dus" in KH2's English version is because of fan-reaction. I've always used "Tie-dus" myself, and "Tee-fa", "Yoo-fee" and "Ree-no". |

The word Tiida is the Okinawan word for "sun" The word Yuna is the Okinawan word for "moon" So, I too call Tidus "Teedus" |

It just sounded better and made more sense.
