    It's a pretty good nickname, just maybe not that unique, but you can't go wrong with it.

    I don't have any good ideas right now, maybe Agni (An hindu deity, god of fire, and ends in NI), or Logi (Norse god of fire, not related in any way but sounds better than Agni IMO). But they don't sound that convinving this time around.

    It's great that it grew on you. I agree that it was the best option in this case.

    I usually nickname my Pokemon something from another Video Game, such as a character. Like I named my Male Flareon, Bartz from Final Fantasy V's Bartz Klauser.

    I always nickname my team members. Most of my nicknames draw inspiration from pop culture, personal stuff, mythology, etc etc..

    Salazar the Serperior (Named after Salazar Slytherin from Harry Potter)
    Zaborg the Electabuzz (Named after a yugioh card; Zaborg the Thunder Monarch)
    Bluto the Darmantian (Named after the Popeye the Sailor character)
    Demona the Gligar (Named after the villainous character from Gargoyles)
    Apollo the Lucario (Named after a karate studio in my town)
    Peach the Starmie (Finding Nemo reference.)

    I have made it a point to nickname all my Pokemon, so I can't list all of them. But I really think Verona fits my Reshiram very well.


    And so a new journey begins...

    even if we don't understand each other, that's not a reason to reject each other. There are two sides to any argument. Is there one point of view that has all the answers? Give it some thought.

    Caught a Heatran today, and called him Podoboo. Named him after the living balls of lava that appear in the Super Mario Bros series.

    I've only nicknamed one of my pokemon, but I've been considering nicknaming others. I nicknamed my Volcarona "Starfire". It's a shiny female Volcarona. Her name is mainly because of her green eyes, but also because I thought the name made sense. Besides, I <3 Starfire.

    This is a line from volume 3 of my fanfiction on deviantart and fanfiction.net. I ship Link and Starfire <3 (I'm the only one who does).

    Back in the days of Gen III, I used to nickname Pokemon.
    I don't any more though. I just think it makes them seem weird with a nickname. Once I named a Female Mr. Mime Mrs. Mime

    I usually give them nicknames to feel some bond. x:
    My current B2 team is Ivy (Serperior), Bahh (Ampharos) and Ryuu (Trapinch).

    I do nickname my Pokémon 8D
    Here are some nicknames I remember:
    Mr.108: Spiritomb (108 spirits, 108 base defenses, etc)
    Amber: shiny Raichu (The word electricity derived from the greek word for amber, elektron.)
    Voltrgeist: Rotom (A poltergeist is a spirit that makes noises and moves objects.)
    Yomiel: Chandelure (Ghost Trick reference. There is not really a reason for this name, it just seemed to fit)
    Inti: Volcarona (Incan sun god, not very original)

    Also, I'm looking for a nickname for a (future) shiny Garchomp. Maybe I'll just stick with Squalo (Katekyo Hitman Reborn) 8D
    Oh, I also need one for a shiny female Bibarel.

    I hate my username. Just call me Pokequils or Quils.

    I caught a Larvitar on Mt. Silver last thursday. Nicknamed it T-103 and sent it to Black 2 where it evolved into Tyranitar. T-103 is the codename for a B.O.W. in the Resident Evil series.

    I also caught a shiny Buneary in Castelia City yesterday. It is pink and a male, so i called him Pink Daddy. Yes, that's a reference to a homosexual person, just a joke i thought was funny.

    I give nicknames to everything I can (unless it came from the Pokéwalker or a similar device).
    One of my personal favorites is a Volcarona I named TROLLARONA because I was irritated with it when I was trying to catch it. It cracks me up whenever I need to use it (mostly for hatching eggs) and whenever I see " What will TROLLARONA do?" because of its nickname.

    Theme some of mine after Greek gods, such as:

    Electivire-Zeus
    Poliwrath-Poseidon
    Gengar-Hades
    Togetic-Hermes
    Gradevoir-Aphrodite
    Kabuto(To be evolved)-Ares

    And some others are just nonsense or life based, such as:
    Ditto-Flubber
    Houndour-Brandy (Named after my recently passed Dog)
    Machamp-Goro
    Cloyster-Big Freeze
    Spearow-Jack
    Snorlax-Famine
    Ursaring-Ursa Major
    Aggron-Lucifer
    Aerodactyl-Lockjaw
    Steelix-Shockwave
    Drapion-Pestilence

    And so on. Never used to see the appeal of nicknames, but now they're pretty common with me.
