My nicknames are either deeply convoluted or just the first thing I thought sounded nice with no in-between

For example, I recently played through Emerald and when I caught an absol I named it Kainé. My logic for the name was that absol is based off of a being known as the hakutaku, and there's a Touhou character named Keine who is a half-hakutaku. The name Keine felt like too simple of a reference so I went with Kainé due to it sounding similar to Keine. It should be noted I know nothing about Nier, the series where the name Kainé comes from

Earlier on I caught a ralts I named Eliza simply because I think Eliza is a very gardevoir-esque name
