Naming Your Characters

[NejiHyuga900]

I usually name my character as my first name, Randy. But when I play Yellow, I always name my character Ash and start using his first generation of Pokémon.

If I do continue to play Pokémon games, I would rename my character to Raiden or Rairyu.

okay i know this sounds werid but
i dont put down a name untill after i beat it
i put my name as unkown or . .
after i beat it i play it and as i play i think of a name and
IF i come up with one i restart and put it down  

[Char-Broiled Toboggans]

I've never named the character after myself (mainly because I'm known as 'Darbyshire'). I usually use names that I've come up with in the past. New names appear randomly.

Red: AAAAAA, AAAAAA (Hey, I was like 3)
Blue: AAAAAB, AAAAAA (Misclick)
Yellow: Ash, Gary (Very original...)
Gold: Gold, Silver (Manga at the time)
Silver: Silver, Gold (Reversed it)
Crystal: Russell, John (Look! Something original!)
Ruby: Russell (Repeat?)
Sapphire: Russell (Repeat...)
Emerald: Specky (Sceptile was my starter)
Pearl: Senji, Nil (Original!)
Diamond: Senji, Nil (Now ruined...)
Platinum: Senji, Platinum (...Rival's named was changed at least...)
SoulSilver: Bane, Zack (Finally! Something new!)

Pokemon TCG: Phil (Don't know why...and yes, I did have the original TCG Pokemon video game for the GBC)

I have a hard enough time picking user names for online games, so I just use my own name, or a nickname.  

[Pickipika]

Yellow - Ash I named him after ash obviously.
Sapphire - Max After the name of the kid in the anime.
Emerald - May After the other kid in the anime. sweatdrop
Diomand - Real name
Pearl - Lucas Default name
Platinum - Nick-name
Heartgold - Nick-name


So I started useing my real name recently, Ha ha. I think it's fun thinking up name though, so I'm about 50/50. 3nodding

Pokemon Ruby: Yuki, because i do love anime to the extent. I named my character after twenty minutes of thinking of anime characters. Rival: Chase, because you totally have to chase him down every time.
Pokemon Emerald: Louis, because at the time i was reading Ann Rice's "Interview With the Vampire. Rival: Lestat, the same way i named my character.
Pokemon Diamond: Misa, it took me thirty freekn minutes to think of a death note name -_- Rival: Lucifer, i was having a bad day.
Pokemon Platinum: Damion, because i really love that name. Rival: Shingi, i love the anime Neon Genesis.
Pokemon Soul Silver: Misa, again. Rival: Damion, great name.
