Dawn? That sounds like some pathetic nickname you give a goth person in a cult! HIKARI WEARS PINK! SHE OBVIOUSLY IS NOT A GOTH IN A CULT!
Paul... although it isn't as bad as Dawn. It doesn't not fit the fierce scary look of Shinji...
 
You find this at all surprising? Dawn comes from "diamond", and Paul comes from "pearl". I've actually been thinking the default male name in Pearl would be Paul (maybe Damian for Diamond?). Plus, since when have the character names ever remained the same in both English and Japanese? How is this all that bad or unexpected?

yeah Dawn! I hate that name because ther is a fat girl in my math class with that name and she's so annoying >=( I wish it was like Amanda or something better :D
 
Dawn makes sense, a bit.
I mean...

Hikari means light in japanese, and dawn is the time after night, thus bringing light, no? xD I dunno 'bout the other guy though. I don't know what his name means...

Dawn is the period in the day when the sun is rising. How does that remind you of a goth-cult nickname?
 
Dawn actually makes sense. Hikari means light in japanese. Dawn is the time of day when the sun is rising and it becomes light out once again. However Paul is kinda stupid since they should have done something with an S like Shawn or Shane.

If they just kept the Japanese names, it only happens in animes suited for maturer audiences.

That's what we need in life, a Pokemon anime with mature subject matter!
 
Hikari means light in Japanese, so Dawn fits.
