Trivia

Origin

Its physical traits are similar to those of a hare; Numerous East Asian legends concern a Moon rabbit. In old European stories, the Moon gazing hare also has roots tied to folklore sources containing references to the Moon, hares, and night-time. It also has very similar looks to a Black Cat, with slitted eyes and a feline-shaped skull. This would make sense to its type being Dark; black cats in most cultures are associated with deception and trickery. The rings on its body look like Egytian lunar markings and jewelry that have been associated with cat sculpture as well. Its black head and ears are also quite similar to that of Anubis.

Name origin

Umbreon's name is derived from umbra, Latin for shadow and ghost. The -eon suffix, common to all Eevee evolutions, comes from Eevee's prototype English name and possibly refers to the ending suffix of evolution itself. Umbreon's name may also be derived from the color umber, seeing that it is a shade of brown very close to black.

Its Japanese name, Blacky, could be a mix of 黒 (black) and 運が良い (lucky), tributing the black cat in Japan that is considered lucky. It may also simply refer to the color of its coat.

In other languages

  • German: Nachtara - From Nacht (night). Ends with -a like every Eeveelution in German.
  • French: Noctali - From nocturne (nocturnal). Ends with -li like every Eeveelution in French.
  • Korean: 블래키 Beullaeki
  • Chinese (Taiwan): 月精靈 Yuè Jīng Líng - Literally means "Moon Spirit". Ends with -精靈(spirit) like every Eeveelution in Chinese.
