6th Gen Player Nicknames?

[BakingBluePotatoe]

I've been playing in German and only have half an idea of what's going on... I think I inadvertendly picked "Lady R" as a nickname... Rosa is my player's name (Yeah, default name from White 2 because why not, I always liked that name)

 

[hughes]

My player name is Vash, and since "The Humanoid Typhoon" would be too long of a nickname, I just chose "Typhoon."

 

[Astinus]

Named my character Michael, so it was kind of a no-brainer to go with "Mike" for the nickname. It's kind of fun to see the characters use the nickname, since they seem like they'd use a nickname for their new friend.

 

[TRGrunt]

My character name is Elizabeth (I named her after myself), and I ended up choosing the nickname E-kins. I thought it was clever when it was brought up.

 

[acatfrommars]

Haha yeah, I nicknamed my character Rico. That is one of my nicknames that is really popular at school. xD

 

[Aminta]

I just went with the fairly generic "Lady S." The whole nicknaming thing is kind of awkward, in my opinion. I think it makes a little more sense in Japanese with the many different honorifics and diminutives that are commonplace in the language. There's the occasional exception with English names ("Michael" to "Mike" was a good example) but for the most part it seems odd to me to have a group of strangers suddenly decide they want to nickname me.

I'd prefer if choosing a nickname was optional.

 

[Catspill]

I named my character Catspill, and I was really confused by the whole nicknaming thing so I just chose Big-C. I wish I had picked something else but it doesn't seem to be too important so I don't really mind.

 

[Charcoal92]

I put down Corey. My character's name and my name is Corey. I just went to choose my own nickname and put my name. I am not a nickname guy.

 

[Sheep]

I put Lady J as my nickname (since my character's name started with J). The default ones were pretty cute and I wasn't feeling very creative, so default it was!

 

[Naikado]

I chose Onii-chan for the lulz.

It made the entire game extremely awkward. I regret nothing, though.

 

[braixen]

my character's name is Winters so i just put Win as my nickname lol. for my y version tho i just kept my nickname the same as my player's name

 

[Zero Percent]

So, since I used my actual name for my character, you could imagine which one I picked.

Who could say no to the 'Big D'? {XD}

 

[Marionz]

My username here is my trainer name in-game :)

 

[Batty]

I was thinking of naming my character Flossie and having the nickname be Floss. I haven't decided yet.

So, since I used my actual name for my character, you could imagine which one I picked.

That's pretty good. XD I would get annoyed with them calling me that after awhile though.

 

[morrison]

I'm Jonah, nickname jon. Not very imaginative but obvious.

 

[~Tentacruel~]

To be honest I was confused by the nickname thing and didn't felt like choosing one of the goofy defaults. I didn't have any idea for another nickname though and didn't know why I was supposed to choose a nickname in the first place so I just chose "Matt" as my nickname ("Matthias" being my regular name).

Really I'm more stoked about the fact that this is the very first Pokémon game I play where I can actually use my full first name. lol


-- Matt

 

[Arrow]

My name is Stephanie and my nick name is Stevo, because that's what people in real life call me for some reason...

 

[Meemster]

I used my nickname which is Meemster and my nickname came out to be Lil M. I like it :)

 

[Aether★]

I named myself Simon, since it's my real name translated to English, NPC's call me Big S.

 

[TrinityLovesPokemon]

My player name is Trinity but I nicknamed myself Twinki idk why xD
