'''Silver''' (Japanese: '''シルバー''' ''Silver'') is almost universally used in [[fanon]] as the name for this character, since it is his default name if the {{player}} provides a blank name for him in {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Gold|s}} and {{game|Crystal}}. Despite this, it should be considered that Pokémon Crystal only shares the default name with Pokémon Gold likely due to the former being specifically developed from the latter, as evidenced by [[Pokémon Crystal beta#Super Game Boy features|development leftovers]]. Furthermore, his default name differs on other games, which call him '''Gold''' (Japanese: '''ゴールド''' ''Gold''){{sup/2|S}}, '''Soul''' (Japanese: '''ソウル''' ''Soul''){{sup/4|HG}}, and '''Heart''' (Japanese: '''ハート''' ''Heart''){{sup/4|SS}}. | '''Silver''' (Japanese: '''シルバー''' ''Silver'') is almost universally used in [[fanon]] as the name for this character, since it is his default name if the {{player}} provides a blank name for him in {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Gold|s}} and {{game|Crystal}}.

Some fans call him '''Kamon''' (Japanese: '''カモン''' ''Kamon'') to discern him from {{adv|Silver|his Pokémon Adventures counterpart}} and {{OBP|Silver|SS018|an unrelated anime character}}. This name is taken from the suggested names for {{ga|Ethan}} in both the Japanese and English versions of {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Silver|s}}; this is similar to some fans calling {{ga|Blue}} "{{Gary}}", since the name is found as one of the options for the {{player}} in international {{game3|Red and Blue|Pokémon Blue|s}} and for the [[rival]] in international {{game3|Red and Blue|Pokémon Red|s}}. | Some fans call him '''Kamon''' (Japanese: '''カモン''' ''Kamon'') to discern him from {{adv|Silver|his Pokémon Adventures counterpart}} and {{OBP|Silver|SS018|an unrelated anime character}}.

Other fans refer to him as '''Gnohio''' as a traditional way of playing the game, allegedly with Spaceworld 2000 developers using this name in the working copy of the game. A number of other players prefer '''???''' due to the prompt at the beginning of Gold, Silver and Crystal which uses this name as a placeholder. | ||
