Pokemon Name Generator Based on Name
Punny blends of first names and Pokemon
Portmanteau Pokemon names that fuse a real first name with a Pokemon (Pikachris, Alakazamantha, Jolteonathan) for nicknames, gamertags, birthday parties and personalized fan art.
About Pokemon names
Turning your own name into a Pokemon works because Pokemon names are already portmanteaus. Charmander is char plus salamander, Bulbasaur is bulb plus dinosaur, Squirtle is squirt plus turtle. Slide a human name into that formula and you get names like Pikachris, Alakazamantha and Jolteonathan that sound almost plausible in a Pokedex. The trick is finding a shared sound: Gengar and Garrett overlap on 'gar', Rapidash and Ashley meet at 'ash', Onix and Xavier fuse at the 'x'.
The list below covers almost every Kanto original, every starter through Paldea with later evolutions, legendaries, baby Pokemon and species from Hisui and Paldea, blended with first names for men and women from many languages. Some blends run the other way, with the name in front: Stevee, Matthewtwo, Victorchic. Scan for names close to yours: if you're Leigh, Hitmonleigh and Grookeyleigh are ready; a Chris can be Pikachris; a Samantha becomes Alakazamantha; a Dylan is Totodylan. If your exact name isn't there, borrow the pattern from a neighbor and swap the syllables.
These blends make good gamertags, Discord handles and Pokemon Go nicknames, and they're a reliable hit on birthday banners and custom trainer cards. They also work backwards as nicknames for the Pokemon themselves, so the Growlithe your daughter Thea catches can be Growlithia.
How to choose Pokemon names
- Look for a syllable your name shares with a Pokemon (Ash and Rapidash, Gar and Gengar, Lee and Hitmonlee) so the blend flows instead of just being stapled together.
- Say the result out loud; if you can't tell where the Pokemon ends and the name begins, it's a good one.
- Match personality to the Pokemon: an energetic kid suits Pikachu or Jolteon blends, a sleepy roommate is a natural Snorlaxander.
- For gamertags, keep it under 15 characters so it also fits Pokemon Go, PSN and Nintendo Switch nickname limits.
- Try your surname too; longer family names often fuse better with four-syllable Pokemon like Alakazam or Metagross.
Frequently asked questions
How do I make a Pokemon name out of my own name?
Find a Pokemon whose beginning or ending shares a sound with your name and merge them at that point, the same way Pokemon names themselves are built (Charmander = char + salamander). Chris + Pikachu becomes Pikachris.
What if my name isn't in the list?
Take a blend with a similar-sounding name and swap in yours. Jolteonathan shows the pattern for Jonathan; a Nathaniel becomes Jolteonathaniel, an Anna becomes Nidorannah.
Can I use these as Pokemon Go or Discord names?
Yes. Most are under 15 characters and use only letters, so they pass the Pokemon Go nickname rules and work as gamertags on Switch, PSN and Xbox.
Are these official Pokemon?
No, they are fan-made puns. Pokemon and the individual Pokemon names are trademarks of Nintendo, Game Freak and The Pokemon Company, so keep commercial use to a minimum.
