If you have any suggestions for the player characters' names, put them here.

Since the legendaries have X (Xerneas) and Y (Yveltal) in their names, I think the players' names should have something to do with X and Y.
They were themed in earlier games (Red, Blue, Leaf, Gold, Kris, Silver)

Xavier and..... Yvonne?
I don't like them either.
What do you guys think?

Xavier is a cool-sounding name; I wouldn't mind if it was used for the male protagonist. As for the girl... hm. There aren't many names that start with Y, but I did think of one: Yulia.

I really do wonder what they're going to do about the names, though, since it's a bit odd this gen.
 
Re: PKMN X and Y Character Names

Xavier is cool, Yvonne just sounds...out of place.

I don't think they'll take the lettering route though, they didn't in Gen V so there's no need to start now.
I'd just look dorky imo.

A little on the nose, doncha think?

What about Alex and Riley? They end in X and Y, but both names can work for either a Boy or a Girl, which given the X/Y Chromosome angle could be nice.

Actually just call them X and Y.

My sister and I already decided on names. We called the girl Xiu, and the boy Yūto. Hit baby names sites for your X and Y name needs!
 
Re: PKMN X and Y Player Character Names

The last time the PCs had official names based on the game titles was FRLG, so I don't think it'll necessarily be the case here... Though single-letter titles are probably easier to work into names than word titles. I like the idea of giving them both gender-ambiguous names. Alex for X, but I have no idea what to do for Y. Kyle?

Kylie?
Ally?
Mary?

I don't know, I think it will just look forced or be a bit too much.

I think they'll base their names off of whatever theme the games have.

Well, the girl could be Yoko in Japanese

This won't be hard for the Chinese version.
Hmmm......
YUI!
No......

Xavier and Yasmine? Lol, I don't know.
 
Re: PKMN X and Y Player Character Names

All right, to hell with the X and Y theme.
 
Re: PKMN X and Y Player Character Names

Gene and Jean, to match the XY chromosone theme. Who's with me??
 
Re: PKMN X and Y Player Character Names

In a related question, do you think the character limit will be changed for names? It would definitely be nice to be allowed longer names.

And if we're going with the XY theme, then the girl should be X and the boy should be Y. So, Xanthippe and... um... Yancy? Yusuf?
