Across languages is almost understandable, sometimes the specific sounds used for a name just don't really exist in another, or they just don't really compare notes too closely; a great example there is 'Mhach', which is written and probably pronounced completely differently in Japanese because they don't really have that word-ending 'ch' sound.

My favorites are that 'Bahamut' is pronounced differently by different actors in the scene where we first meet Tiamat, and that 'Asahi' is pronounced differently by Alphinaud in two separate instances, despite the rest of the line being identical.
