- Cilan/Chili/Cress
- Lenora (Aloe)
- Burgh (Arti)
- Elesa (Kamitsure)
- Clay (Yacon)
- Skyla (Fuuro)
- Brycen (Hachiku)
- Drayden (Shaga)
- Iris
How do you just feel about these names?! Not too bad huh? Share the on fb! Imma go to sleep zZzZzZzZz
<3 pokejungle
ps- One of the seven sage characters is named Ghetsis (Geechisu) 😮 Creepy name
Elesa – perfect
I like it, but is it pronounced El-ess-ah, Ee-Lee-sah, or El-sah?
Uh-LAY-suh? Like Elena, but with an S?
I said I would riot if Cliff wasn’t Yacon’s name… but I didn’t think of Clay. They seem… okay? I don’t understand why it’s ‘Brycen’ and not just Bryce, especially considering that Bryce is, you know, an actual name. I don’t really like Burgh either, but I suppose they’ll all grow on me.
“Bryce” would be just too similar to “Pryce”, I guess
Kudos to me for asking the Leader names, huh! *-*
Hey PJ, don’t forget that he confirmed Geechisu’s name to be Ghetsis
Noooo!!!! I wanted Carmen for Kamitsure 🙁
Ok Imma opinionate:
Cilan/Chili/Cress – I still don’t like Chili, the others are fine 🙂
Lenora (Aloe) – Could be worse, It sounds nice when you say it I guess 🙂
Burgh (Arti) – Urgh.
Elesa (Kamitsure) – I’ll get used to it. It ain’t smexy enough 🙁
Clay (Yacon) – Couldn’t add “ton”. Actually, it’s alright 🙂
Skyla (Fuuro) – Best one I think, really like it and it’s suits her 🙂
Brycen (Hachiku) – Nice I guess, it’s icy 🙂
Drayden (Shaga) – Smith.
Iris – Yay!!! 😀
And done.
Wait a second, why did it have to be LEnora, why not just Nora, that’ll have been great. Stereotype. They’re lucky it isn’t LaNora xD
Nuvema Town: Nuvola means cloud in Italian
Striaton City: Striation clouds
Nacrene City: Nacreous clouds are also known as mother of pearl
Castelia City: Castellanus clouds display multiple towers arising from its top
Nimbasa City: Nimbus clouds are rain clouds
Undella Town: Undulatus clouds are wavy
Lacunosa Town: Lacunosus clouds have honey comb pattern
Opelucid City: Opacus clouds;comes from opaque and Perlucidus or Translucidus clouds; both come from transparent
Icirrus City: Cirrus clouds are full of ice crystals
Mistralton City: Mistral Wind and alto means high
Undella Town is Sazanami Town, sazanami means ripple and undulatus is a wavy cloud.
Lacunosa Town is Kagome Town, kagome lattice is a trihexagonal shape just like lacunosus comes from honey comb pattern.
Mistralton City is Fukiyose City, they both related to winds.
Icirrus City is Sekka City,they both related to ice.
Opelucid City is Souryuu City, Opelucid contrasts with opaque and transparent words just like the city’s concept.
Epic!!!
Elexis ;-;
Elesa just… doesn’t /look/ right.
I love them! Drayden is epic!
If they really wanted a gym leader to be sexy they’d name it ozymandis. :3
lol you spelled your name wrong
Shawd uppppp
It’s the stupid auto correct on my iPhone. Dx
Why did you correct it? It looked so perfect. xD
Woooww I really didn’t expect these names.
Cilan=Love, Chili=Love, Cress=Ok Overall Great names.
Lenora= Love. I actually like it fits her well (Fave gym leader of Unova)
Burgh=Hmm, I really don’t like it Arti and Arthur were fine names but Burgh, it makes sense but I don’t like it tbh will get used to it though.
Elesa=Love, well I only had Elexis and Elexa as ideas and Elesa works just as well.
Clay=Love, Makes perfect sense. I was one of my predicted names for him excluding the ton at the end 🙂
Skyla=Like, It’s only a like because I’ve never heard the name before. I think Gale or Heather would of been nice, but having said that Skyla is a very pretty name and fits her.
Brycen=Ok. His name is my least favourite after Burgh, Only because I don’t see the name fitting with his overall style and character, a bit of a folky name would of been better, but yes it is a fine choice as I believe a name was very hard to predict for him.
Drayden=Good, I found it verry difficult speculating a name for him and I believe Drayden is a very wise choice.
Iris=Excellent, Liked it overall and always wished that she would keep it as her english name and voila 😀 perfect.
Ghetsis=Kool, sounds very creepy and perfectly fitting.
So the only beloved Unova characters left for English names are:
-Elite Four Shikimi (Geeky, Ghouly Book writer 🙂
-Elite Four Giima (Our awesome new Dark Type Vampire Lord)
-Elite Four Renbu (The awesome fighter with a unique design)
-Champion Adeku (The top hippy of Unova :)))
-Subway Master Nobori (The electronic twin of Kudari)
-Subway Master Kudari (The robotic twin of Nobori)
-The remaining 6 Sages
-Goddess of Peace
-Goddess of Love
-Dark Trinity
And the player characters, Touya and Touko
WE CAN’T HAVE REFERENCES TO DEITY IN A CHILDREN’S GAME IN AMERICA! (THOSE HEATHEN JAPS…)
WE SHALL THEREFORE NAME THEM… NICE LADIES OF LOVE AND PEACE!!!!11!!oneelevenone!!! HERPDERPDERP! :B
Cilan/Chili/Cress – Cilan and Cress are fine, but Chili? I still can’t get over the fact that his name is that…Chili Con Carne… XD
Lenora (Aloe) – Like I said before, unexpected, but it’s a good name.
Burgh (Arti) – Sounds…Strangely artistic to me. Kinda fits him tho’. Not bad. Not bad at all.
Elesa (Kamitsure) – That mid-E makes my mind boil, because Elisa’s actually a real name, but otherwise I have no probs with it. It’s ok.
Clay (Yacon) – Clay? Seriously? Is that the best they could have come up with? Just look at the guy. He’s full of bacon…I mean he totally looks like a character from Dallas. -_-
Skyla (Fuuro) – Weird name and murders my tongue while pronouncing it. They should have stuck to Heather.
Brycen (Hachiku) – I have to admit, I think this name is the worst of the list. It sounds like they ran out of ideas, time was ticking and took Pryce’s name and altered it a bit and we have this now. Just plain horrible!
Drayden (Shaga) – Sounds…Really awkward to me. But when you think about the context it’s used in, it sounds pretty okay. “Grandpa Drayden!” Yup, sounds okay.
Iris – No probs here. After all, she kept her name.
Ghetsis – This is fine too. They had to anglicise his name and this is good enough. Kinda similar to Genesis.
Now I just wanna know Touya and Touko’s name. I want either Blake and Claire or Terry and Tori. 😛
Renbu = Crafton
Giima = Skian
Shikimi = Marbeth
They say so.
Huh. Interesting names. Got a source for this “they”?
Cilan/Chili/Cress – I hate Chili! WTF is that xd Chili is just, weird -_-
Lenora (Aloe) – Like the name, fits her. 😀
Burgh (Arti) – What is this? What is this for God’s sake! Stupid name, sounds too macho for that guy.
Elesa (Kamitsure) – Don’t like it. I would’ve liked Elisa or Elise better
Clay (Yacon) – Should’ve been Clayton (named after my rival in Diamond :D)
Skyla (Fuuro) – Like it!
Brycen (Hachiku) – Brycen is just a weird version of Pryce.
Drayden (Shaga) – This name fits him great!
Iris – Great she keeps her name!
I actually like all of the names, although Skye would have been better than Skyla imo..
Clay makes me think of Clay from Xiaolin Showdown.
Of course. Clay can be used interchangably with earth/ground.
I am surprised that TPCI is using a very generic name for this gym leader. Every other name except for Iris is changed or modified from its root word. It really makes you wonder why they gave Arti the gym leader “Burgh?” Is this supposed to be a pun on “bug” and “burg,” which means “city or town” (a reference to Castelia City)?
If so, this is one of the worst puns of PKMN history.
TPCI so far is hit and miss.
I was hoping for ‘Flo’ for ‘Fuuro’ but I quite like these names.
pretty good.. probably could have been better
How? People would still complain if your ideas would be true… :b
Burgh for Arti? What is this supposed to be about?
All of the other names are fine, but I can’t get over Burgh for Arti. It just doesn’t sound like a name that would be suited for him.
Belmad is correct with the cloud names and translations. I also agree that the cloud names are matched up with the town names correctly.
Burgh sounds like the sound you’d make when you’re vomiting.
Blargh and Burgh? Arti can get a twin in the third version called Blargh!
I think Burgh’s name comes from Williamsburg, which is the area of Brooklyn that’s supposed to be “artsy”. I think it was at some point but now it’s just full of hipsters. Anyway, Arti is kind of a hipster anyway so it works.
I honestly think Burgh should have been Arthur (as in arthropod)… and it’s similar to Arti
A cowboy named Clay…
anyone seeing the unintentional reference to Xiaolin Showdown?
Burgh… Uh-oh, cue any number of Pittsburgh jokes. (Anyone else heard it referred to as “Da/The Burgh”?)
…No E4 names yet? I hope they name Shikimi Lucy. You know, ’cause she’s a lefty and all. ^^
Why not Skylar instead of Skyla? I know a girl with that name.
I like the cloud name scheme. It makes me happy. 😀
Shikimi should be Morgan Le Fay. :3
Lucy is perfect for Shikimi! I knew someone who kinda looked like her named Lucy!
Shikimi won’t be named Lucy. There’s a Lucy already from Hoenn and she’s hotter than Shikimi. 😛
There’s two Biancas too; I don’t see the big deal. People are allowed to have the same name. 😉
Yeah, but, that Bianca/Kanon was in the movie with Lati@s. Nobody will bat an eyelash at that. Lucy/Azami is a different matter, because she appears in the game too. 😛
I do indeed… Shaolin Showdown is epic.
Touya should be Jayden.
Touko should be Jaelene.
If you think about it, the names do fit these two. As for the names, they are alright. Burgh and Drayden made me flinch though, but the rest are actually quite cool.
What is the old dudes name since he is a gym leader too just not in Pokemon White or the Anime (as far as we know).
You’re talking about Shaga, who is the Dragon Gym Leader in Pokemon Black?
He was revealed to be named Drayden
