nintendo always finds new ways to astound me with names. what annoys me is that im certain that for the manga version, they're gonna be named X and Y. though I'll probably stick with what i've done with BW, and choose the female character and name her whatever is the romanji of her japanese name is.

Its either real or its a dream, there's nothing that is inbetween, Twiiiiiliiiiiight

Ah Yuoaman, you are great.

I personally was going to say Xavier and Yasmin as they were also the first things that come to mind, but then Hilbert was randomly unrelated to Black or White, unless I've missed something. It could still be anything.

I'm hoping they go left-field again and just say 'Stuff this, we'll give 'em ridiculous names again.' I genuinely was amused by Hilda and... Hilbert.

I'm thinking Aubrey would be a nice name for the girl. She kind of looks like an Aubrey to me.
She looks like Carmen Sandiego, that's who she looks like. Probably is too.

If we're going with the -supposed- French origin of the region,it wouldn't strange for the main character to be named Yves, though it's not a name that I'd use during gameplay. Or Yvonne, Yvette, Yvon...
With an X, Xavier(e)...
Idk... I just hope that whatever names they pick, are going to be nice.

The guy will definitely be named "Hilbert 2.0", obviously. (?)

Their names will be something like "Xuai" (guy) and "Yeks" (girl) ... Ok, they're pretty bad .-.
Hilberto seems like a befitting name. Though I would argue that even Hilbert's design was better than his, so his name shouldn't be more interesting than Hilbert. Maybe Bert!

Yoko and Kamina Bad joke time's over. What if they're called Lana and Link? Okay, Nintendo already has a Link, but that was the first thing that came to mind. after Yoko

Xander or Xavier sounds like a decent name for the X boy. Yvonne? Yvette? Can't figure out a good Y girl name.

And Z will come around and the rival will be Zack, calling it here.

Egoraptor and Jontron.

But seriously I really can't think of any names right now. Even though it seems to be set in France I don't think they will have French names, at least in the Japanese version (BW/B2W2 were set in New York but the protagonists' Japanese names were Touya, Touko, Kyouhei, and Mei, all Japanese).

Xavier and Yulia, obviously. ;) Well, that's my guess anyway. Watch them have names that don't even have an X or a Y in them at all.

Unlike a lot of these suggestions, I don't think the characters names will start with an X for one and a Y for the other. While the earlier games had some of the names correspond with the games (red, krys) that hasn't been the trend as of late. If anything I think the names will be based off a theme like they were for BW2. (resonate)

So if the theme was Genetics (which I think it'd be something like that) then I could see the protagonists names being something like Jeanne and Eric.

Hm... I'm thinking of names like Tyson for the Male character and Alex for the Female character for my speculation on playable character names.

Why's that? It could start with a Y for all you know.

Oh. Hm. Well...Xena and Yoseph. ...Haha. Yoseph...

Or maybe names that end with x or y. So Molly and Alex. Watch it end up being Gertrude and Bartholomew or something.

Why's that? It could start with a Y for all you know.
Girls have XX sex chromosomes, boys are XY. That's what he was going for, I believe.
