What are you going to name your character/rival?

[allaboutthecute]

I named my main character after myself, of course.
I named my rival Jun. I know thats the Japanese name of a DIFFERENT rival, but i liked the sound of the name (did Silver even appear in the anime?).
Its off topic, but i named my Chikorita (now a Bayleef) Leafian. (It's a girl, and yes i always nickname my Pokemon.)

[iluvwobbuffet]

Myself: Heather
My Rival: Charles, after my boyfriend, lol.

=^_^=

[~ Z ~]

So, I finally got! ^^
yey!

My own trainer is called Haru, since I thought it fits to him pretty well...
Thanks to this, I had trouble getting a good name for rival, but after a whille I decided to name him as Fuyu.
Meh...Mind as well had named them as gold and silver, but this works pretty well too, since "Fuyu" is a pretty cold character at the beginning.

(and to anyone who don't get it:
Haru means spring and Fuyu means winter)

[Auxis]

I named myself Auxis and my rival Krist.
My first Pokemon was Totodile... but my partner is Hikaru the Ampharos.

[pokman]

I'll name my character Jackson. I know it may be a bland name, but it fits well for the male character. As for my rival, I kept his name Silver.

[MetaMarx]

I named myself my own name and my rival Kiddo, because when he shoved me I said, "You're such a kiddo!"

[centipede2000]

Character : Mazarek, in honor of Ray Manzarek, the keyboardist of the doors (There is a limit of seven characters; Manzarek contains 8 letters so I flushed the n)

Rival : ZeeBiX (no explanation on this one)

Starter: Cyndaquil - named Cinnabar

[Zigzagoon_Fan]

I've never understood why there's a *7* letter limit on your character name, but *Pokemon* nicknames can be LONGER......

My name in Heart Gold: Kaitlyn. Rival's name: Draco (yes, like the HP character)
My name in Soul Silver: Lissy (which can be a nickname for my real name).
Rival's name: Porgis

[xXForGotten]

My character will be named Crystal ....because thats my real name LOL
and rival ish named Silver :3
i dont know why everyone hates Silver....he becomes good at the end...
:O
And...its Giovanni's fault he was like that so HATE GIOVANNI xD

[iDeath]

My character name is one i use for other game ID's: GeTViZy, since iDeath is on my platinum already.

My rival, since everyone in the beginning mentions his red hair, I decided to name him Shanks (from one piece)

My starter poke was a shiny chikorita which I named iSunny.

[Eden Of PA]

On Gold I was Eden but I may change that when I restart since the girl figure hasn't exactly been beautiful in any of the games. I am Silver(boy) on SS then figured I'd call my rival Gold on both.

[Katipunero]

My character's name would be my name.
My rival will be silver since i got SS and he's the same dude in the manga.

[BadMutha_53]

Well, my first game was fire red, and it gave you a list of names you could choose, or you could create your own. On that list was Toru, so I chose that. From there, all my rivals have been called Toru.

[Celes Chère]

My SoulSilver name is Celes, and my rival is Kefka.
My starter was a Totodile named Snow.
HeartGold name will be Relm ('cause of the pigtails and hat), all else is TBA.

[Darwinian Eeveelution]

I always just give the main character my name. In HeartGold I called my rival ??? out of tradition.

[Typhlosion1990]

i call my self in HG "Raylz" because that's what my team calls me the transit navigator

and my rival was simple"Gold". due to the game name.
