Why does Lyra call Dawn, Dane?

You know, I was thinking the exact same thing. I know when they first met, Lyra was like, "So, are you ready, Dane?" then she winks. I wonder if Lyra just said that on purpose or she didn't hear her clearly, I'm just not sure why at this moment...

I think she just likes to call her that rather than using "Dawn", probably because she originally misheard her name. Highly doubt it's any type of foreshadowing, more likely just an added sense of humor.

Maybe Lyra has an accent? Or maybe it has something to do with Dawns clone. ( I saw a Screen shot with a Dawn look alike princess and Dawn.

I think the writers of Pokemon just gave Lyra a cheap gimmick. Other than that, no idea. In fact, I think it's border line stupid.

I believe Lyra called Dawn "Dane" for the same reason why Kotone called Hikari "Hikarin" in the Japanese version.

It's a nickname.

I believe it to be a nickname as well. I can't think of any other reason. It doesn't really make any sense, but oh well. I did hear that in the Japanese version, Kotone has a little line that she says, poking fun at her own name. "Koto ne?" Maybe that's her little gimmick in the English version. ^^

Maybe she just never got around to actually learning Dawn's name? Now that would be rude.

Or maybe it's just a nickname for her.

Or a nickname remarking on her preppish, girlish nature.
