I'm used to pronouncing Ultimecia "Ul-teh-meh-see-ah", but in Dissidia, they pronounce it "Ul-tih-mee-sha".

Zidane is pronounced "Zi-dahn".  Tidus is pronounced "Tee-dis".  Neither of these sound right, but that's the way they've done it.

I've seen a youtube comment once that said "contrary to popular belief", Sephiroth is pronounced "Sef-er-roth", not "Sep-her-roth".  I mean, he's right about the real pronunciation... but was that EVER the "popular belief"?  I'm pretty sure it wasn't...

I would've thought pronouncing Yuffie "You-fee" would be a given... perhaps I was wrong.
 
I don't like "tee-des" nor "mah-ko". I prefer "Tie-dus" and "May-ko".  :-)
 
We didn't know how to pronounce Tidus's name for a while because they never said it in the voiceovers of FFX!! :x :x :x

True dude. But Tie-dus sounds better now doesn't it?  :-D
 
I've always thought that it MUST be "Tide-us".  So like, you can hear the word "tide" in there.  I've always associated Tidus with water, since he is one of the three "underwater" characters, he's a professional aquatic sport player, and his Brotherhood weapon, when powered up, deals water-elemental damage.

Similarly, I associate nearly all Final Fantasy characters with elements.  It's a strange habit, come to think of it.
 
i always prenouced tifa with the a sound like the a in waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah but then short. wich is the way the a is prenounced in dutch. Wich sounds the same as people eventually prenounced her name in advent children. so i was happy.
 
The link goes to another forum, where they've been talking about mishearing the battle quotes in the English version of Dissidia.

I'm still burned by the whole "Lue-cre-tzi-a" thing from DoC. I always thought it was "Lue-cree-sha" BECAUSE THAT'S HOW IT'S SPELLED!!!!
"Ul-tih-mee-sha" I can see, but I still think the way you do.

Tidus being "tee-duhs" I can almost understand because he's named "Teeda" (more-or-less) in Japanese. It's too close to the ancient roman "Titus" which I've always heard pronounced "tie-dus" because of my Southern US drawl.

This is my biggest problem with VAing. They almost never pronounce words the way I've been thinking them in my head for years. Although TotA got "sentient" correct, at least. Johnny Yong Bosh VAs good, but he shouldn't have given in when they told him to say "tee-duhs". At least he's not pausing every four words like Cloud.

Just to throw this out there, for some reason, i always thought it was "lue-cree-see-a", probably because i was a little kid when i first played FF7 and the name just stuck.
 
For me its

Tidus = Tea-Dus
Tifa = Tea-Fa
Zidane = Za-da-n     (Da+N = like Cane just with a D instead of a C)
Mako = May-Ko


And just to through this out there:

VIVI IS THE DEATH!!!!!! Should have put him in Dissdia :P

Don't feel bad, i always thought thats what it was, then i played kingdom hearts and he said tea-dus and i thought "Waahh? haha
 
well given the trend, terra, cloud squall, having tide incorporated in his name would fit a trend of natural based names, water too if you exclude terra
