...That is all Eww.....Blair sounds like more of a girl's name, probably since I know a Blair, and Whitlea...I don't have to say anything I think, they will always be known as Black and White in my eyes. I'm at least glad that Cheren kept his name and Bianca isn't a bad name either Burgh. Get rid of the 'B' and you have the noise The Name Rater makes when he gets sick of all the nicknames... I still cant get over how stupid the names for cilan, chili and cress are:S
I could think of better names:
Tthe trio could be Dennis, Bernie and Walter,
Elektra for Elise and Wendy(like windy)for Skyla.
Clay and Lenora are fine I guess, but Burgh should have kept his Japanese name. Sheesh.
</rant> Oh... Drayden, Drayden, Drayden, you fight him after Clay. :P
Yeah, these names are kind of stretching it. The Cilan, Chili, and Cress names are bad, but fit in with a waiter trio theme sort of. Lenore doesn't really fit without a Raven pokemon (Norma would be straight to the point). Burgh...idk, he's in a city and shares letters with Bug? Elesa is bleh (I like the Elekta name better, as well). Clay fits. Skyla and Brycen aren't the best, but they get the point across, even when hidden. Tiff: What the sillysallying HECK?!?!?!!??!?!?!??!?!? Eh, If this was the Hoenn all over again and we were learning the english names you would all say the same thing about them... Elesa is a pretty cool name imo. @ RedFox
I doubt they would have used Norma, considering that they already used that pun with Norman in Hoenn. LOL.
I'm with the everyone saying that Electra is better than Elessa. It fits her better, too. Elessa sounds too common. brycen=bryce! T_T I'm with Zomoni xD
Knowing me I ought not to learn names before they're dubbed. I like Blair though "The Burgh" is what we in Western Pennsylvannia call Pittsburgh! Who names their kids after a city?! No one! London and Paris come to mind PokemonGeek, as for the new names, they're ridiculous, I give up on having hope on the names of Black/White people and locations. Thanks for reporting this anyway :D pokemongeek - uh, Paris, Bristol..
