Lyra. Lyra. Seriously? It's a nice name, but it feels odd after knowing her as Kotone for the last few months. On the other hand, I see where they're coming from. Kotone, according to bulbapedia, means "sound of the harp", so Lyra makes enough sense. Also, when I think Lyra, I think "Megaman Star Force". Wonder why..... I remember now.

Wasn't Melody slightly used in Pokemon:2000? I doubt CAPCOM will bring war if the only thing they share is the name. Now if Mankey had been called Data... well I doubt generation five would be a possibility. I never figured out exactly who Kotone was, but I'm now guessing she is the female playable character. Is that right?

I, to was hoping they'd change Lance, as it would be creepy to have a good lance and a bad one.
