I dislike receiving nicknamed Pokemon in trades... Whenever I make trades, I make sure I return it to itself default name (not that I ever nickname it in the first place).

Of course, I may think like that because I've received one too many Wonder Traded Pokemon with inappropriate nicknames...

I'm fine with nicknames as long as they are clean and proper (no symbols or unnecessary capitalization). I once got a 5 IV Dratini called "#GZArmy" from a Wonder Trade in Pokemon Y. Even though he has good stats, I refused to train him because of his nickname. It was only when I transferred it to my OR that I decided to train it. I still don't want to use him in WiFi Battles though.

I dislike nicknames and kinda despise the Japanese and Korean names, simply because I can't understand it.

I only kept a Vivillon and a Jolteon with their original French name. Voltali and Prismillon are not terrible names..

I always rename them

Just for being evil, if I breed a Pokémon and it happens that its first form begins with an upper case 'i' I am sure to change it to a lower case 'L' and summarily if a Pokémon has a lowercase 'L' in its name I be sure to make it an uppercase 'i'. I'm the worst kind of person lol.

I only nickname personal-use pokémon. Especially with mons I spent ages planning and breeding because I feel like it creates a stronger "bond" and that pokémon gains sentimental value. I don't mind getting nicknames so long as they aren't going into one of my collections. It's devastating to get a new shiny through wonder trade with a good IV spread and have a sex joke in the nickname or something. It's happened to me...
