since when a character from videogames needs an actual existing name.What. Hasn't it been officially confirmed that it's supposed to be Zidane anyway? Like isn't that what they were going for? Anyway, don't see how it sounds "wrong", sounds just like an actual name for a person. Better Zidane than something like Edge Maverick.
you're missing my point, to me Zidane doesn't seem like the best translation, not even close. Gidan is already better.
as stated above, I don't see how that has anything to do with the point I was trying to make.The game still gives you the option to name characters so if you want Jitan, you can have Jitan. Along with Bibi, Salamander & Freyja.
"Gitanes", lol.Interestingly, in Sakaguchi's very first video game, "The Death Trap", there was also a character called ジタン but his name was romanized as Gitanes:
