| That's been driving me crazy for years. If there's a vocal pronunciation that I missed somewhere, please show the link. |

| Obviously there are spoilers here for anyone who hasn't played the game, but here's all the cutscenes from war of the lions. Go to 20:04 to hear Delita's pronunciation of Ramza Beoulve. Phonetically, it's more or less in line with how I've always pronounced it. Sounds like he puts a little more stress on the "ou" part than I do. I put the stress on the "Be" part. Take that with a grain of salt. Voice actors don't always get it right. |

| BAY-olv Seems like the best way to spell it out. One of the coolest names ever for a FF character imho |

| Wrong--according to that cut-scene. I'm in the BE-olv camp. |

| Bay-Oolve. And watching the video just now...holy crap I was right. For once. This does not happen often at all. |

| I'm probably the only person in the history of ever to pronounce it Bowl Va. Like Vulva, but with a B. God, I've been calling him a twat subconsciously for almost 2 decades. |

| At first, BEE-allv. And then someone told me it was "Baywolf." |

| Josh and I have been livestreaming some FFT (we took an end of summer break but will probably resume?), which has been my most substantial exposure to the game (since I am astoundingly bad at FFT). And my pronunciation, to Josh's chagrin, is: beh-OO-wuh-all-vuh-EH. So I'm pretty sure you're all wrong |

| I may have been canon-wrong with my "bee-UHLV" pronunciation, but at least I got chocobo correct from the start. |

| (BOOL-vuh) for me. I think we had a whole thread on FFT characters pronunciation years ago. |

| I always went with Bay-yoolv This is a name that really went under my radar as a "contentious-open-to-interpretation-on-how-to-pronounce-it" name. It's certainly not "Cecil" or "Celes." |
