What's Your Rival's name?
I saw a thread on naming the hero/heroine, but what about your rival?
Ever since I saw a rather comedic Let's Play of Gold, I have decided to name my rival...Carl. |
I don't know...I might name my rival after an old friend (for old times sake).
|
We dont even know 1) If there will be any rival 2) if the "Rival" is a boy or girl!
|
Some kind of insult, because I'm so incredibly mature. It feels just wrong otherwise.

Something witty, normally I do Green; this time I feel like doing something witty.

Don't know yet, will probaby decide when we have the game
|
I might just use the first default name depending on whether it resembles him or not. I actually carefully choose my rival's name. I like to name them by how they look. So, for example in HG/SS I think I may have named Silver Danny once because he looks like a Danny to me. :3
|
Hahaha, I don't even know my trainer name yet... Maybe Light, honestly. From username, not for Black/White theme. :x!
So, the rival can be lame ol' Shadow. Or Zack. Names of my past pets. xD Having a mean female rival would be cool. o__O |
We don't even know what they look like yet LOL
I guess I would name it an offical name like Silver in SS... |
I'm probably going to name it after the version of the game: White if I get the White version and Black if I get the Black version, sounds pretty weird but that's what I did on my Soul Silver and Heart Gold.
|
I'll wait until the manga. Whatever they're called in the manga, I'll name them.
That's why I'm "Gold" and rival is "Silver", not Ethan and Heart, in SoulSilver. I just like the manga names. However, I may just name them after the partner game. |
Anyways. If it is a boy I always name it after one of my best friends or one of my brothers.
I think it's fun. Maybe it will be a girl this time and not boys many times. |
I'm kinda hoping for a girl rival myself. Dawn and Kris don't do much at all. May sucked too.
If that happens, then I can't name her Carl ( although that would be rather funny :D ) |
Well, since I started HG, I'm going to name them both this:
Hero: Ichigo/Sakura Rival: Nikolai/Arina Yeah, for any game, these are the names. Male/Female, yay! |
I vary it a little bit
My name is always named after my real-life name, always. For mystery dungeon games I pick the friend that I think best suits me as a be-there-for-you-always partner. For main Pokemon games I pick the friend that I think is the most competitive battler for my rival. |
DOUCHE. Never "Douche," "douche," or "DoUcHe".
Always DOUCHE. |
Well for my last few playthroughs I've named the rival (Pearl) Jacob after my friend who still actually likes Pokémon.
|
I'm naming my rival Brad because it's an awesome name. xP
|
I guess I’ll do Murdle… cuz it sounds quite cool. xD
|
me rival(if any): trask :)
|
???
That's his real name, dammit! Otherwise it's usually just insults. |
My rival, huh? At first (Yellow to Ruby) I called him Gary after the Ash's rival in the Anime. But in Pearl and Platinum, I changed it to Thomas. But in SS I called him Spencer, which is what I'll probably call him in B/W. But I might change it like I have done. I'll just have to wait and see.
|
I always feel like the naming process should be spontaneous! :)
|
I'll either just keep the default name, or name him/her after... well I guess if it's a girl I can't name it after my brother haha. If it's a guy I'll name him after my brother, if it's a girl I'll name her Emma.
