Fai:

Fai, I'm not sure where it came from. (English manga perhaps?)

I'm so used to using 'Fai' ^^; So I find it hard for me to use the spelling 'Fye'. I suppose I'm so used to it because that's how they spell it in the english manga.

AkaiYuki:
Rekall: The spelling "Fai" comes from the romanization of Fai's name. In Japanese, his name is written with the characters "Fu-a-i" with the "a" small. When there is a small character immediately after a regular sized one, it's sound takes the place of the previous characters' ending sound. (Changing "Fu" to "Fa," in this case.) Which makes the romanization "Fai."

Wow, I made that sound way more complicated than it actually is.. Sorry, I suck at explaining things like that.. ^_^;;;

No, no one has ever spelled it like that.. ^_^;; That's FWR's name... I have NO idea why it's in this poll! XD

How could "F-e-i" ever be pronounced "F-a-i?" XD
