The name origin kinda just bothers me..It seems a bit TOO obscure. I know it's minor and not that relevant but are we sure it has nothing to do with the actual word "echo" itself? I doubt it's a coincidence they're spelled similarly. [[User:Pocketfanmk|Pocketfanmk]] 04:17, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

:Echo isn't similar enough. To quote the hidden text in the name origin section:
::''"Echo" is unlikely, even downright nonsensical. They have 2 letters in common, but those letters make completely different sounds between the 2 words. In fact, the words don’t sound the least bit alike. Phonetically, the most you can say is they each have 2 syllables, stress on the first. And those of you who find the name somehow distasteful *cough*TTE*cough*, try to remember that it actually the real name of many people. Regardless of whether those people ever even wanted to share a name with a generation of brats or a Nintendo character. :-(''

== About his name 2 - Electric Boogooloo ==
The name origin is so, well, not appropriate for his context considering the meaning of Ethan. I share my name with this guy so I know what it means. Ethan, most commonly, means Gift to the Island (whatever that's supposed to mean), Strong/Enduring, and some other source I saw a while ago stated it meant ''Full of Minerals'' and was used in farming and mining families. I think all of these can apply to him considering the fact that most people thought and still think that every region is an island. He's a Pokémon trainer which are usually strong considering a normal day is them running around catching the creators of the planet/universe/human sapience/death, and Giratina who is Satan. And the ''Full of Minerals'' meaning makes complete sense when he's the male protagonist of ''Gold'' and ''Silver'', AND those were the first games to include "Farming" (if you even want to call it that) in any way or form. So take your pick, I think any of these are more likely to be the name than something straight from the broble. --[[User:Nuclearxpotato|Nuclearxpotato]] ([[User talk:Nuclearxpotato|talk]]) 22:17, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
