What other way would you name them that is still consistent with the theme?

It's still Ryme in Japanese because if the language, but obviously serves as pun for both classic plant based character names and in her case the rapper gimmick. The fact some of these Paldea names are edible plants is just an extra reference to the cuisine.

Pronounce Lime with a moon accent.

American Pokemon localizers rarely follow the Japanese convention of characters being named after plants.

Thyme is fine. Why not just go for Rhyme? It looks nicer.

They've been doing it since Gen 6, somewhat mixed in Gen 5.

They started doing it with SM, but they're kinda weird about it and rename characters for no reason. Kukui and Mamane are both names of Hawaiian trees, but while Kukui got to keep his name, Mamane got renamed "Sophocles" as a reference to the mamane's binomial name "sophora chrysophylla".
What the fuck is even the logic here?

We don't know Ms Tyme's first name, but this makes the gym leader's full name Ryme Tyme since they're siblings.

Its not concept art, it was fanart based on a tiny blurry leak of her, and which was made to look like it was a leak of concept art.

Since Ryme is the only gym leader to do double battles, do you think they ever battled as a pair in the past?
