I'm waiting on the official release, but I just want to know: what did Gamefreak dub these two?

No protagonists have canon names except Red, only the NPC's that use the same designs as them have canon names, and there are none in this game.

Isn't there a default name for them if you press start at the name screen instead of entering your own name for the character?

They don't have official names because they don't appear as NPCs, just like Leaf.

So people will probably just use the demo/trailer placeholder names like Sun, Elio, Moon, Selene, etc.

Because the opposite-gendered character doesn't appear for the first time (excluding Gen 2 because only Crystal had a gender option and HGSS used Lyra and Ethan) and the game does not give any default names, we are forced to use prerelease names seen in screenshots.
Those are Elio and Selene.

Her name appeared in the boxart of Crystal's US version, and variations of "Kris" were also the first default name for the female player in all languages.

They already did. Sun/Moon, Elio/Selene.

These were all initially dismissed by us though because "pre-release names don't count" (which had some basis I guess) and we were all waiting for what names they would have in the final game, but since they don't appear as NPCs anywhere, it's back to those names, since those names are the only ones we have for them whatsoever.

This situation hasn't really happened since ""Leaf"" in FRLG, and Bulbapedo covered us on that one.

They have to be in the battle tree or something, but nobody has beaten the game yet so we can't be sure where we'll run into them. Gamefreak WOULD NOT be as dumb as to let their main protagonists go without a canon name.

No. These two names have an obvious theme to its versions. Aside from gen 1, none of the names the protagonists were given had any sort of theme, they were just random.
They started giving official names without fail after FR/LG. At some point they will give them actual names through promotional stuff etc. like Kris. See >>29804915
They did give Kris a name even though she and her actual name is not present in the game if you play as the male character instead.

Well, they do have themes, like "light" for Dawn and Lucas and "fight" for Hilda and Hilbert, but these themes have nothing to do with the game titles.

Most have a theme, but it's not always apparent.
Gen 2 - Ethan/Hibiki, Lyra/Kotone. Sound/music theme.
Gen 3 - Brendan/Yuuki, May/Haruka. Bravery and spring, but no shared theme between them.
Gen 4 - Lucas/Kouki, Dawn/Hikari. Light.
Gen 5 - Hilbert/Touya, Hilda/Touko. Battle. Nate/Kyouhei, Rosa/Kyoumei. Resonance.
Gen 6 - Calem/Calme (or Karume if you want to get picky, but it's intended to be Calme due to how Japanese works), Serena. Calm/serene.

This was a perfect opportunity to include the opposite gender protagonist and let you fight him/her and they messed it up.
