Simple and easy question really. Are you playing as Hilda or Hilbert in B/W, and what did you call yourself?

In White I'm using the male protagonist and called myself Neo. And in Black I'm using the female protagonist, and called myself Santana (yes, character from glee)

I'm playing as Hilbert. I always play the male character, and my in-game name is always Josh, the same as my real name.

Both. And I called them by respective game name. I named Hilda with White, Hilbert with Black. Simple.

I always pick the male character. And my name is always either "Cesar"(my real name) or "Escrax".

+1 brownie point to anyone who figures out the relationship between the names.

I always pick a male character, though in rare cases in a challenge or something, I pick female character just for teh lulz. "Chris" is what I use in Pokemon Black (and probably future games as well), though I usually use "Johnny" or their in-game character names.

I picked Hilda, and named her the same as my PC username. I just use a pseudonym if I play as the guy.

In most cases I pick the character whose sprite seems more appealing to me. If I've already done a playthrough with one character, I always pick the other one the second time through. Sometimes playing as a certain gender I notice some comments seem a little... off. I can't help but wonder how often my mind is being dirty and how often I feel that there's some very subtle sexual overtones in the game.

Female named Ashley. I always choose the female character whenever I can, even if I don't approve of her outfit. And Ashley was a cute name that I hadn't used in awhile so I decided to give it a spin :P

Male and I called myself Andrew so that the OT of all my games coincide. I usually play female and call myself Anna but after I restarted all my games I thought it was time for a change. Plus Hilda totally looks skanky. ;)

Female, in both White and Black. Jazra's the name. Just something about her back sprite. Can't quite put my finger on it, but wow.

Also have the LEGO minifigure components to have made her.

Playing as the boy. Named myself Michael, my real name. c: I always play as the boy when I first get a new Pokémon game.

I debating whether or not I'll play as the girl if I get White.
