"Tamago" means egg. (As in Tamagotchi)

"Me" means eye. (As in Memetchi)

"Choko" means chocolate. (As in Puchichokotchi)

Thanks for posting this, it's helpful to know what the Tamagotchis were named after. I'd like to add that the child character "kinakomotchi" is named after a Japanese food called Kinako Mochi, which is kind of a rice cake.
