I don't understand the naming scheme. Besides my own personal complaint that if you're going to make a Digimon game in English, you should use the English names (which like I said is a personal complaint, and I'm not going to fault people who disagree) there seems to be no logic to it.

There's ones like

DemiMeramon (English name) instead of PetiMeramon or PetiteMeramon

Chrysalimon (English name) instead of Kurisarimon

Gobli- and SnowGoblimon (English names) instead of Goburi- and SnowGoburimon

But then there's others like

PicoDevimon instead of DemiDevimon (English name)

Chibimon instead of DemiVeemon (English name)

Growmon instead of Growlmon (English name)

Ganimon instead of Crabmon (English name)

And those are just the ones I've noticed. Also, unrelated, I absolutely love Kurisarimon's movement animation.

The worst one in my opinion is that they use Salamon instead of the Japanese Plotmon, and then the Japanese Tailmon instead of Gatomon. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it.

That's an insane name for Japanese Salamon, because they don't even look like the type of hound their named after. Still better than "Tailmon" though lol
