For years, myths have circulated and fans have speculated, but in a new interview to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the series, Sakaguchi gave a definitive answer.Final Fantasy 35th Anniversary Special Interview | Part 1 of 2Back when the first game was in development, the Dragon Quest series had taken off but was often shortened to"Drakue". Sakaguchi and the team wanted their game to be shortened to something using the Roman alphabet and decided upon FF.
Fighting Fantasy, however, was already trademarked."So we reluctantly went with Final Fantasy as a last resort," he said.
