::::What about the UK box art and the European localizations? [http://www.gamefaqs.com/gbc/375087-pokemon-crystal-version/images/box-20177 The Japanese box art] definitely doesn't name any of the protagonists, and we should follow the Japanese version while looking up the name for the game's heroine.

:::::Marina isn't a preprogrammed name, so that obviously isn't an option. Even if it were, Kris is by far the most used within the fandom. The reason female PCs that show up in the anime use their game names is because they appear in the games using those names when not picked as the player (think you forgot that Iris isn't a player character). <small>[[User:Glik|glik]]</small><sup>[[User talk:Glik|glak]]</sup> 23:40, 24 August 2015 (UTC) | :::::Marina isn't a preprogrammed name, so that obviously isn't an option.

::::::Preset list names and dummy names are not valid either (otherwise, why doesn't everyone know that Red's and {{ga|Leaf|Green}}'s rival is {{ga|Blue|Terry}}?!). ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', dub nonwithstanding, is inspired by Crystal (it even has the name in the Japanese title!). And I was referring to main characters, which Misty and Iris are in the anime. Of course, Lyra appeared in the anime as well, while Green, Hilda, and Rosa didn't. | |||
::::::I'm also not suggesting a move but the fact is that "Kris" is not an official name, which is already mentioned in the article. Ethan is also a special case since he doesn't have an official name in the context of Gen II as his names are sound-related like Lyra's so that they match, not to mention that he has two anime counterparts ({{jo|Jimmy}} and {{DL|Ethan (game)|In the anime|Ethan}}).
