Recycled Character Names in the Anime

It's cool to find the characters with the same names, but just remember that, just as in real life, names aren't exclusive to any one person, and with the number of people they meet every week, it's no wonder they'd have to revisit few monikers.

That said, let's not forget the Drake of the Orange Crew, and the Drake of the Hoenn E4, both with a powerful dragon at their command.
OMG!

I just remembered the most obvious thing! XD



There's two characters named Max.

The Max we know as May's brother, and the other Max from the episode "Maxxed Out".

I can't believe I'm the first person to mention this!! LOL. XD
Add in Maxie from Team Magma, and it's a downright epidemic!
 
Well it would be pretty hard if you can never use the same name on another character, but if I was the only girl named Ruby in the world, I wouldn't care :D
