Male Golduck -> Kahl (random name)
Female Dragonite -> Eradh (random name)
Male Golem -> Titán (spanish for titan)
Female Beedrill -> Sting (yeah I know)
Male Gengar -> Doppel (after doppelgänger, the ghostly double of a living person)
Unown M -> Maker (its associated word is "make")
Male Piplup -> Willy (after Chilly Willy ^_^)
Female Luxray -> Lucy (from "Luz", light in spanish)
Female Victreebel -> Vicky
Female Ponyta -> Marey (Mare+Mary)

**akhilys** · 7th January 2009, 9:25 PM

I've been naming my Pokemon after German, Latin, and Nordic names of blunt/bladed weapons..

I feel kind of like a jerk now :/

Smallwall is a cool name for a Shieldon.

**DozBate** · 8th January 2009, 8:34 PM

I called all of my pokemon Steve(no idea why just seemed necassary) except for legendaries which are all called Graham thanks to my favourite shiny Groudon!

Any ideas for a nickname for my Jolly Purugly and my two Jolly Crobat? The Crobat are nicknamed "BAHTMAAHN!" and "BruceWayne" I got bored and named them but now I think they're lame...

Purugly... perhaps Kingpin, if it's male. lolfatcat.

Also, for Crobat, I go with the usual Dracula/Demitri names, though if you want to keep the Batman style, go with DarkKnight.

Also, a few names from my personal compendium.

Torterra - Yggdrasill, enormous world tree from Norse mythology.
Electivire - Maziodyne, ultimate electric ability from SMT gaems.
Gyarados - Blitzkrieg, word of uncertain origin that basically means "rush in and kick azz"
Staraptor - Aerosmith, awesome band.
Bronzong - Tlaloc, god of rain of Aztec mythology. It fits, since according to Zong's dex description, it was revered as a bringer of rain.
Bastiodon - Genspenst, dunno what it means, but I picked it from Super Robot Taisen, and it sounded cool.
Jynx - Izanami, goddess of death of Shinto mythology. Don't ask. Been playing too much P4 lately lolz.

Now... request tiem. Name for male Rapidash INPUT RESPONSE plzkthx

**Babey_blue** · 8th January 2009, 10:30 PM

ok here are my nicknamed pokemon
moonlight=espeon
shadow=umbreon
sercret=lucario

but i need help naming my altaria, any ideas?

**Noheart** · 9th January 2009, 12:04 AM

I've been seeing rather disturbing nicknames. Like "Coldf***" on Mamoswines and such.

Anywho, here are some of mine:

Aerodactyl - Terro, meaning Terrodactyl, since that is the animal that Aerodactyl is derived from.
Swellow - Tweety. Obvious.
Cresselia - Luna. Lunar except with out the "r", making it sound more feminine.
Umbreon - Halo, because it looks like it has halos all over it's body.

Also, for the Altaria, I'd say Nimbus, since it's a type of cloud.
Rapidash, I've nicknamed mine Shadowfax, which is the name of a divine horse in The Lord of the Rings.

**sweet_piplup123** · 10th January 2009, 11:14 AM

I normally name them after people I know, or someone from certain shows.
How's Aaron for a Riolu, anyone? Yep, that's what I did.
EDIT 400 posts? *faints*

**Darkrainer** · 10th January 2009, 2:44 PM

I've never really messed with nicknames much, though I used to name all of my Pokemon their Japanese names. I'm thinking about nicknaming my current competitive team though.

**Ninterror X** · 10th January 2009, 4:39 PM

The Gastro's

Gastrodon(West) (Female)- Zoey
Gastrodon(East) (Male)- Zack

I breed them both at the same time, so I kinda count them as "Twins" so to speak.

**SWITCH** · 10th January 2009, 7:12 PM

need a name for my yanmega and salamence

**Turquoise** · 10th January 2009, 9:14 PM

I nickname them all, because on WiFi, I love seeing my opponent's Pokes with funny names, and I'm assuming they do too. Ex. Kingdra -> Sea*****s lol

For Yanmega it could be Meganeura which is a prehistoric dragonfly

Can anyone think of a feminine name for a male Buneary?

..I want to catch another male Buneary,for beauty contests.

Can anyone think of a name for a female Buneary that will be used for smart contests?
She uses offensive moves alot,according to the battle I had when I caught her.

I have a Lopunny for cute contests,Samson.
I have a male Buneary named Zoey,who I want to use for cool contests.
I plan to catch a male Buneary and name him Yuri,use him for tough contests.

I'm all out of names. I can't think of any,and I don't like names that have something to do with the type of Pokemon,or its look.

Edit:
The female Buneary is jolly and she has "Good Persevereance". She likes sweet foods.
The boy is bashful is bashful and is strong-willed...He also eats anything
