Turtwig, Cimchar, Staris and a few others.
Check out SPPf for all of them:

What do you think about the revealed names.
I'm kinda happy that Floatsel and Pachirisu could keep their names.
The other ones sounds rather strange.
Turtwig is just weird.

I doubt I'll ever get used to them xD

Chimchar is a cool name, Turtwig and Happini are not. :<

Those that keep their Japanese names are alright, I suppose.

Happini just doesn't fit for a Chansey pre-evo.

A few other names have been discovered:

Pochama's English name has revealed to be Pochama.
yay, another Pokémon can keep its name^^

Just a little weird since usually all the starters got renamed before.

yeah it is weird, but I like it, I mean nothing could beat pochama, anyway I hope the names of korinku and riishan will be anything good

me too.

Although Beappa isn't fully confirmed to be Bippa's name, it looks rather strange to me as well.
It's the romanization of Bippa, but the spelling just makes it look extremely weird.

Buneary sounds like binary, Mimiroru was a much cuter name.

Buneary sounds like, look at my ears or something, I mean why put ear inside a pokemon name, that make it feel like they are weird, like with nosepass for example, but yeah he had a NOSE so it fitts him. Anyway Chimchar reminds me to much of Charmander as name, Staris looks to much like Staryu as name. Turtwig just sounds akward, and it will be even worse in Dutch.....

Let's see... I'll only talk about the ones I know. XD;

Turtwig is odd, but at least it works. Chimchar reminds me of Chimecho (sp?) for some reason. @@ Buneary makes no sense to me at all. Staris I don't get either, but it's better than Buneary. Happini is rather odd, and I don't know if I like it. And finally, I hope Pochama stays Pochama. However, I wouldn't doubt it if it changed.

Someone has posted a link to stuff with the English names on it: http://toyfair07.asmzine.com/gallery/Jakks-Pacific/Pokemon/slides/IMG_6741.html

From what I can see Pochama's name looks shorter than Pochama, the other names are too blurry to fully see them, but Korinku seems to have a short name.

The names are great, I am not too keen on Chimchar or Glameow but I can live with them.

My ideas from watching it

Grealonk for greguru I think, pochama is definitly not pochama it ends on an Y. Shellos or Shelios for the sea slug, if my eyes are good.

Gregguru looks like Ceralonk, Korinku looks like Spike.

Subomi is Budlia I think

Well, Joe has posted annother link which verifies that Pochama's English name is also Pochama.

Still you can't be sure, since they said the same happened to Perap... Or should I say chatot. Anyway maybe the names are not so bad, mm, though they don't fit the pokemon that well...

Those pokéball-shaped toys look odd. XD

Anyway, with the other names: They remind me of the typical names for Pokémon, to be honest. They don't really bother me but they don't impress me either, you know? o.o;

And Kricketot reminds me of Kakarot or however you spell Goku's Sayian name. XD *shot for watching/playing too much DBZ*
