The Name Rater

Hmm, I get your reasoning, but Minccino is so super cute that I find only cute, soft-sounding names seem to fit him. xD Anyway, 6.5/10!

Believe it or not, that's something I would name my Rayquaza too, haha. It totally reminds me of Greygnarl from Dragon Quest IX! ^^ 10/10

Greygnarl is soooo cool for a Rayquaza! And Barbarus could be used for a shiny! OMG~ Actually, that name would also suit Mega Charizard X, since they share some characteristics!

Speaking of DQIX, I used to have a Zigzagoon called Boppin, after the Boppin' Badger! Gotta be one of my favourite enemy designs in that game.

That works very well actually, also, Dragon Quest is a brilliant franchise so that's a plus. 9/10

I always name my Charizards (the ones I use for Mega Charizard X) Acnologia, after the Black Dragon from Fairy Tail (image below for reference). The colour schemes are extremely similar, the Black Body with the striking blue. And they are of course, both very fearsome dragons. I just feel like the name suits Mega Charizard X very well.

8.5/10 I like it! And they do look similar.

I caught a Shiny Azumarill in Y not too long ago and decided to name her Karat, not only because her yellow color reminds me of gold, but it also sounds like carrot.

I like it! 8 / 10! ^v^

I don't really name my Pokemon, but I got a fletchling called lil' Fletch who was wonder trade fodder, and now he's my level 100 Talonflame <3 he's all grown up now. Also I was traded a Spinda called Hold My Beer. x'D

Ha Ha.. Funny name.
I named my Joltik(now Galvantula) Spidy in White 2. How's that?

That's a cute name. 8/10.

I have a Male Roserade called Vega after the Spanish Masked Fighter with a Claw in the Street Fighter Games. (Who somewhat confusingly is called Balrog in Japan).

That's actually really cool and fitting! It reminds me of a movie I've seen before, but I can't quite remember which one! Nevertheless, I'll rate it 9/10!

Back when my sister and I played Emerald a long time ago, we named our Bagon "Bagel," because we thought it sounded like a fun name. :D

I'd give it a 10/10, mostly because I did the same thing when I played Sapphire for the first time xD


I gave my Shiny Hariyama on OR the name Tohru named after the character in The Jackie Chan Adventures cartoon :')

9/10 Never watched the cartoon, but it seems like a fitting name for a Hariyama.

I named my female Gabite (later Garchomp) Draciaea, pronounced drah-SHAY, in Platinum because I was in a creative mood or something.

8/10 Cool.

I named my Diancie Rihanna. Good?

Marvelous, 7/10


Any chance anybody is a fan of Beauty and the Beast?
If so, I have a Shiny Chandelure named Lumiere

8/10. Fits.
I named my Honedge Xcalibur. Howzzat??

That's what I named one of my Honedge! I really like the name, so 9/10

Since Vivillon is Pokemon #666, I named my female Vivillon Lucy.

9/10 Very cute name for a Vivillon.

I named Froakie Boba! What do you think?

Fits well with Froakie's derpy look. 8½/10!

My Pidgeot is called Talon. What do you think?

I'll give that an 8/10! It's definitely a cool name, but at the same time, it also reminds me of this guy. xD

I've been wanting to name my Sandshrew "Ice Cream Cone," because it sorta looks like one to me! :P Thoughts?

8/10. Cute and made me laugh pretty hard. Loss of points cause I will never unsee it.

In my most recent game of Y I'm naming everyone and everything after brands and slogans of popular products.

As such, my Chespin(now Quilladin, soon to be Chesnaught) is named Kuku4CocoPuff as it was the closest I could do with naming limits. Plus it makes me giggle.

It's definitely not something I'd name one of my Pokémon, but I guess it works... in some way. xD 6/10

What do you think of Zomb, my Parasect?

Well I think if that came out of nowhere.... so 5/10

what about "DRAGGY" for my charizard....
I thought up the name at the moment ;)

7/10 Draggy is...bizarre.

How about Bonzi Buddy, my Aipom?
