Where did these names come from? Why? Is there any significance to them, or any kind of deeper meaning?

I believe Kanto and Johto are actual parts of Japan

Hoenn, Sinnoh, and Unova are just random names

Kanto and Johto are regions of Japan. The others I think are just made up, could be wrong.

seems so odd for them to just be random. everything else seems deeper.
