Here are my assortment of Character name predictions for the main series games. I put their Japanese then followed by my predictions. When they are revealed I'll update them and then give my honest opinion about the names.

BW Characters

Japanese Name	Predicted Name	Reasoning	Real Name	Response
Professor Araragi	Professor Camellia	Sounds like a female Professor name since Ivy is gone	Professor Juniper	I actually kind of like this name
Makomo	Holly	From American Holly (Poinsettia) which causes drowsiness when the berries are consumed. BTW it's poisonous so don't really eat them	Fennel	? Interesting choice
Shoro	Megan	From megabytes. I think it fits well with her appearance	Amanita	Why a poisonous mushroom? Why break the pattern now NoA?
Bel	Belle	They probably won't change it much	Bianca	Oh okay, not bad
Cheren	Cheren	They probably won't change it	Cheren	Figures
Toya	Blake	Sounds the closest to Black	Hilbert	Seriously? Why that?!
Toko	Whitley	Whitney was already taken, next closest girl name to white	Hilda	Really? Like Hilda the Hippo?
Dent	Oliver	From the Pokemon ability Overgrow. I kept this parallel for the Striaton Brothers.	Cilan	Well it sounds less odd than what I said.
Pod	Blaze	From Blaze.	Chili	Meh
Corn	Tory	From Torrent	Cress	Not my cup of tea, but it's okay
Aloe	Norma	From Normal	Lenora	Very nice name, pretty good
Arti	Anton or Arthur	Ant for Anton (thank you Prof. Layton!), Arthropod for Arthur	Burgh	What is this?! I don't even...
Kamitsure	Ellie	From electricity etc.	Elesa	Good enough for me
Yacon	Craig or Clay	Craig, a deep rock chasm. Clay, moldable earthen material	Clay	Nailed it! but Craig to me fits better. By the way, southern style speaking, cowboy hat wearing male named Clay? Xiaolin Showdown anyone?
Furo	Heather, Skye, or Skylar	Heather=Heaven/Feather. Skye/Skylar=Sky	Skyla	Close enough. They're just lazy to type one little "r".
Hachiku	Bryce	My friends name is Bryce (has Ice sound in it) so I though it'd be cool	Brycen	I guess the "n" was to prevent him from being confused with Pryce. Meh close enough.
Iris	Iris	No change most likely	Iris	Uh huh, knew it.
Shaga	Draco	Draco, Yes I know it's unimaginative, but it's all I can think of	Drayden	Less obvious than my guess
Shikimi	Willow	From Will-O-Wisp, also the Willow tree is often used in scary movies right?	Shauntal	Wow sounds like one of my friends names. Haunt huh? Could have gone with Chaunte or something. Just sayin'.
Gima	Jack	Jackal, also a rank of playing card since he is a gambler.	Grimsley	Oh dear God why?! Of all of the...seriously NoA?
Cattleya	Caitlin	It's her name from the Battle Frontier	Caitlin	If NoA didn't catch this I would have laughed my a** off.
Renbu	Bruce, Jackie, Marshal	Bruce from Bruce Lee (Come on! We need to honor him in this game!), Jackie from Jackie Chan, Marshal from Martial Arts	Marshal	Yup, though so. Come on though NoA! This would have been a prime time to use Bruce!
Adeku	Alder	Similar enough, sound like elder since he seems wise and a bit older than past champions	Alder	Uh huh.
N	N	No change of course	N	Uh-huh...didn't even cross my mind
G-Cis (Gechisu)	No clue	Hard to predict such a shady character	Ghetsis	Sounds legit.

BW2 Characters

This list is for completely new characters for Black and White 2.

Japanese Name	Predicted Name	Reasoning	Real Name	Response
Akuroma	Arcadia	Dunno why really, sounds kinda the same no?	Colress	Cool enough for me
Kyouhei	Blake	Same as above for Hilbert	Nate	Well they kept the parallel with Japanese so I'm all for this.
Mei	Whitley	Same as Hilda	Rosa	Same as above. At least the protagonists don't have derpy names like Hilda or Hibert
Hue	Hugh	Closest english name	Hugh	Yup
Homika	Mia	From Miasma	Roxie	Actually a pretty good name. Good job NoA.
Shizui	Sean	From Ocean	Marlon	Why not go Marlin then?
Professor Burnett	Professor Burnett	simple enough to keep the way it is.	Professor Burnett	Yup
Banjirou	Atlas	Like his grandpa, keeping the moth theme. Atlas Moth	Benga	hurr durr
