I usually name mine Cliona or Cli, after myself!
I don't know, there's just something a lot more thrilling and inclusive about your name being in the game. For example, I replayed PMD recently. Usually, I name myself Cliona, but this time I named myself Charma, the Charmander. It just doesn't feel so close to your heart when you're not in the game :/ So I think I'm going to stick to Cliona for my X/Y playthrough :)
