I recently got this boar

and this spider
http://www.wow-petopia.com/html/skins/s ... ungle.html
for one of my (too many) hunters on Nesingwary and now I need some good Japanese sounding names for them
my other pets have names taken from the manga Silver Fang and Silver Fangs son (dont remember the exact title)
Gin (Timber)
Reika (Nightstalker)
Kisaragi (Giggler)

For your Boar I went with mostly bright or sun themed names due to its vivid colours:
Male
Aki - autumn, bright, sparkle
Akira - bright or clear
Haru - spring or sunlight
Hideaki - shining excellence, splendid brightness
Kin - gold
Mamoru - protector (boars are tenacity after all, they're the tanks/protectors)
Ryota - stout, strong
Satoru - daybreak
Teruo - shining
Tamotsu - defender, protector
Toshi - alert, bright intelligent
EDIT: Spider names. No particular theme, just went with ones that seemed right.
Female
Amaya - night rain
Hisako - long lived
Kamiko/Kameko - superior
Kaori - fragrance weaving
Kasumi - mist
Maiko - dancing
Masumi - lucidity
Moriko - forest child
Rin - cold, dignified, severe
Setsuko - temperate
Shiori - poem, weave
Shizuka - quiet
Toshiko - clever

Edited with Spider names. ^
And I agree Ryota seems very fitting.
