I usually name MC girl Holly since Hillary is always a letter too long. D:
Or if she doesn't look like a Holly at all, Kaori, Haru, and Rachel are my backup names (but I can make her look like a Holly this time, so ha!).

Boy MC will probably be either Aurel or Essou, depending on if I want to make him blonde or give him black hair & glasses.

As for animals, I usually give all my cows "M" names, Mookie/Maple/Melody/etc, and then I pick a random letter or theme for the other animals to follow.

Cats/Dogs are almost always anime characters though.

*no idea for the kids yet*

On my first file, I'll have to use a shortened version of my real name since it's one letter too long *_* On my second file I'm doing a music theme. My MC will be Melody and my child will be Sonata.

That's so creative, I loved your names!
Sonata reminds me of a band, Sonata Arctica.

Thanks, Zaria! I always do a theme now for my second file...on HM:DS I did colours, on SI I did characters from books and on ToTT I did weather. On my first file, I always name my MC my first name (shortened) and name my animals whatever I want XD.

For my animals I give random names, like Mandy, Jane and stuff.
But in ANB I'll give my animal's names with the same word as their name.
Example: Cow: Cody etc

How many character spaces do you get for your name…?
I never have enough spaces for what I always name my female MCs in the handheld HMs, so I've been going with Dianne, cause it fits and it starts with the first letter of my name
Might do some serious thinking this time though…

My animals usually start off with cliche things (Bessy, Fido, etc) and names of my own pets then random names or I just use default names…

I never have a theme :/

I'll probably base my names on whatever I'm obsessing over in November. All I know is my girl will be named either Cleo or Alex, and my guy will be named Jon. Also one of my pets will be named Jacques minus the s because STUPID SIX CHARACTER LIMIT ASFDFDKSLDJLSSLALSAL

For the past two years or so, I've named my female characters Fuji and my male characters Moto.

Pets and animals vary.

Aaaugh of course.
One more letter, Natsume. That's all I ask. Just one.

You can maybe do Rebeca or Rebeka? I dunno

I'll call my Male MC James or Angeal. The girl will be either Jamie or Megan(my name).
I'm going to name my animals after Sues: Ariana, Bella, Zoey, Erin, Joan, Dally, Ebony, Enoby, Eboby, Twila, and Nora.
I used to name my dog Sandy after our real dog, but she died over the summer.
