Umbreon's name is derived from ''{{wp|umbra}}'', Latin for ''shadow'' and ''ghost'', as well as the name for the moon's silhouette during a solar eclipse. The ''-eon'' suffix, common to all {{p|Eevee}} [[evolution]]s, comes from Eevee's prototype English name and possibly refers to the ending suffix of ''evolution'' itself | Umbreon's name is derived from ''{{wp|umbra}}'', Latin for ''shadow'' and ''ghost'', as well as the name for the moon's silhouette during a solar eclipse.

Its Japanese name, Blacky, could be a mix of 黒 (black) and 運が良い (lucky), tributing the black cat in Japan that is considered lucky. It may also simply refer to the color of its coat. | ||
