Mini-Con Names

I know that translation from Japanese to English can be a daunting task for the writers of ANY anime, but was it really too much to ask to give Mini-Cons their predesignated names and let them KEEP them?

Grindor is NOT Sureshock and Sureshock is NOT Grindor!
Sparkplug is NOT Leader-1!
Swindle is NOT Grid!

I'm sure I'm missing a lot more Mini-Cons with jumbles names, but I just didn't have the patience to keep watching. I go into a show thinking that it starts out lame but eventually gets better and better (like Beast Wars), but 15 episodes is all I could take. :S
