Boo-ddha
Gengar and the Fat Buddha (aka Budai) are both smiling and rather plump. Gengar is also a ghost type, so I altered the monk's title to reflect that spookiness.

Gengar
Cheshire
The smile of the Cheshire cat and Gengars signature smile look quite similar. The Cheshire cat's ability to dissapear and appear ties in well with Gangar being a ghost type. There are also some theories about Alice in Wonderland being about drug use, which Gengar's poison typing also fits in well with.

Gengar
Inky
I am aware that naming ghosts after those in PAC-MAN is fairly common, but Inky is the best choice out of all of them. Gengar and Inky are the most closely related in terms of color, Inky being a shade of baby blue, and Gengar being a dark and sinister purple (these do not match exactly, of course, but purple is closer to blue than it is to red, pink, or orange). In addition to this, Inky is described by the game as "bashful" and "fickle". Many of Gengar's Pokedex entries mention that it loves to hide in shadows in order to avoid being seen by its victims until the perfect moment. This relates to Inky's bashful nature. I know that there are a few holes in my reasoning, but this nickname has a lot of thought put in to it, which cannot be said about many others.

Kagemasuta
Kage is how to pronounce shadow in Japanese and Masuta is master I chose shadow master because Gengar is the shadow Pokémon and the master part comes from 2 things 1. Gengar is the final evolution of Ghastly 2. My Gengar always carries my team If it’s not good at least it’s better than GOONGY that is what my Gengar was called when I went to trade all the Pokémon I wanted to keep to Heart Gold from Platinum so that I could reset.

Clyde
Clyde is the name of one of the four ghosts from Pac-Man, and seeing as how Gengar is a ghost type and a video game character too, I felt that the name suited it well.

A gift from a friend is the best of all, especially when the name is in all caps and quite the sight to see when on the battlefield. Sometimes people name Gengar stuff like " SPOOKY DLHJSFH K" something like that, nah son this is a BIG BOY.

Well.. Although it's not a dog.. it works. If you don't know what smile.jpg is, look it up on Google Images. It's a dog with a disgusting, menacing smile. Gengar has a smile quite similar to this.. hue.

I was toying with "Cheshire," because the grin reminded me of that cat in Alice, but then I realized: every Pokemon in this guy's family is an arrogant little bastard with that same smug little grin... And so the name stuck.
