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" :P

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. :no: 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. :P 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"
