4th Gen Behind The (Potential) Names

[Ripper]

Male: Xander

Rival: Spike

Female: Willow

(Nerd points if anyone can guess the theme! :O)


That's usually how I name them in GSC. Because Spike fits the rival...

Buffy.

I think I'll decide on the spur of the moment for my game...

 

["Shadow Lugia"]

SoulSilver:
Player: My name
Rival: Paul

HeartGold:
Player: My name
Rival: Silver

 

[Bay]

On default names, I think the girl's name might be Michelle. I don't know, but sounds right to me.

As for names I might want to choose, I might go for Jacob for the boy, Brenda for the girl, and Ernest for the rival, all three after characters in my fic. XD

(yes, I know Ernest is an old man's name and won't fit Silver well, shut up. :X )

 

[axlefoley]

I base my names off of people I know like in original GSC I named silver after my worst enemy in primary school lol

 

[Zelda]

When I get the game and actually see how they look then I will probably know what to name them. Of course these characters are not in the anime so it'll be tough as I usually name their names from the pokemon anime.

 

[Azonic]

Boy: Matt
Rival: Dark_Azelf (and I'm dead serious, I like it when I'm able to beat him in-game. :<)
Girl: Some nickname on Mikayla

 

[⋚Raika⋚]

Hero: Gold
Rival: Silver
Girl: Mushroom Crystal

 

[Chris The Nerd]

Me: Chris, (That's my name)
Rival: Matt (my cousin's name) [my cousin always goes the opposite, for obvious reasons]
Girl: don't care, won't ever use her

 

[Sweet Smoochum]

I'm not sure yet, but here's some ideas.

Gold: He kinda looks like a Kevin or a Max...
New Girl: Maybe Alexis? (Or Strawberry Shortcake. Just kidding.)
Silver: I'll probably name him Kamon... or Weasley.

(I'm playing Silver Version right now, and I just noticed that the names are Silver, Kamon, Oscar, and Max right after I typed the name Max.)

On second thought:

Gold: Harry Potter (because of hair color)
New Girl: Hermione (b/c of hair color)
Silver: Weasley. (b/c of hair color)

 

[BassFace]

Here are the names I'm giving the characters in my HeartGold file:

Player Character (Female): I named her Roku back in Crystal, but since it's a different character this time around, I'm going to give her a different name. I'll be naming her Azure, because she greatly resembles one of my own fan-made Pokemon characters, whose name is Azure.
Rival: For some reason, I named him Jacob back in Crystal. Since it's the same guy, he's getting the same name.
Supporting Character (Male): I'm guessing he'll get whatever his default name is, as we usually can't pick the name of the supporting character.

As for SoulSilver, if I do get it:

Player Character (Male): I'm debating between Chance and Darian for this guy. Or I may just go with the traditional "Gold".
Rival: I might name him Blaise, since that name is similar to the word "Blaze". It's fitting, since he'd be getting Cyndaquil (I'd be starting with Chikorita in this game).
Supporting Character (Female): Like before, I guess she'll just get whatever default name they decide to give her.

 

[Finnel]

Hero: Gold
Heroine: Bronze
Rival: Silver

Bronze kind of fits in with the other two. You know, Bronze, Silver and Gold.

 

[Percy Thrillington]

The protagonist will be named Rekhyt, and the other two will be named after two of my friends in real life. I just need to figure out which two.

 

[Spinosaurus]

Male:Tom/Spark.
Rival:Kain/Silver
Female:Soul/Heart/Sarah/Miley.

Thats what i will do(I know they dont fit)

 

[Lady Gaga]

Myself: Gold
Rival: Silver
Her...She wil probably already be named like Dawn (if you choose Lucas) in DPPt!

 

[Taichi]

Gold: Taichi
Silver: Lucas/Kai
Soul: Ayumi

 

[Artemis]

I'm currently thinking of a female and male Jap. name to choose for Silver and the new female. For Silver I think I would name him Yuki as for the female protagonist then perhaps, Amari or so...

 

[DARKSHADE]

i allways give Gold my name (as i allways play as him)
my rival will be called SILVER obviously! (CANT CHANGE THAT!)
as for the girl, i guess that'd be default...

 

[BUG♥CATCHER★BREEZE]

I base my names off of people I know like in original GSC I named silver after my worst enemy in primary school lol

Me... too... but I don't remember who it was! *graaaagh why did I restart my game!*
So, after my friend Pauline because she has long, flowing ginger hair. :p That or some sort of ginger joke. So he seems crazy.

 

[Cyndahog]

I don't understand why most peeps in this thread don't name the hero after themselves. :S

Obviously, I name the hero Conor [my name]. Gold or anything other doesn't feel right, unless it's a joke playthrough

I name my rival Jack, a guy who gets on my nerves. + he has red hair

I doubt we'll be able to name the female, still pondering.

 

[Psyburn]

I choose my own name, because it sounds natural. If you ask me, choosing names that sound cool or symbolic or sound like other anime characters is....well...simple minded. Just putting that out there.

Then again...I am naming the rival Vega so let me zip my lips :P
