Kamikaze was the Japanese name for the attack, so it counts.

And "Ecthel" is spelled the same way as "Excel" in Japanese katakana.

If it was in the game (I don't really remember it) then it was probably in reference not to suicide missions, but the typhoon that supposedly saved Japan.

Well duh, which is why I didn't mention the pilots.

Just discovered this randomly on Babelfish.
Lacrima is Italian for "Tear".
When trying to figure out which "tear", wikipedia told me it was also Latin for tear (crying tear by the way).

Diviner is someone who can tell the future.

Ignis is apparently fool.

All of Fia's OS' are music types, kinds, and styles.

Eh...

Aghart; hmm...I often think of Aghart as a phoenix, which he probably is. But everyone probably knows a thing or two about phoenixes that I don't need to search.

The red Diviner Lorelei is a fire-based spear used by the Grim Angel Ledah. Ledah refuses to use any other weapon. While in your party, Lorelei's Execution Level skill is "Lost Seraph". Later, Ledah uses "Crimson Correges" as Lorelei's Execution Level when fighting Ein, then "Rose Kreuz" in his "Awakened" form. Lorelei's name seems to have come from the German legend of the rock Lorelei.(got this stuff from wiki)
i dun tink lorelei is a woman though the name is same, the last sentence ...

The Riviera Wiki is not the most accurate article. Of course, it's been a while since I looked through it, it might be a bit more accurate now.
And the wiki article doesn't cover half the things listed in this thread.

Zantetsuken is the weapon (and attack) used in Final Fantasy (since FFIV, I believe) by the summon Odin. It's an extremely powerful, instant-kill move.

And yeah, Longinus is really popular.

It still makes me laugh how Ledah is explaining all this serious stuff about it and then Ein goes, "Can I keep it?" XD

Why are we saying, "This name comes from some other game"?

Zantetsu has a story behind it from before Final Fantasy.

The Zantetsuken is merely a sword tha can cut metal. There's no real 'history' to it, IIRC, because a lot of weapons that could cut through steel was called a 'zantetsuken.'
