Besides Dragon, pretty much every name here is unlikely. Almost more than that, some would be extremely corny.
The only other one that would make sense to me is blackbeard. He did state that sky island existed without any doubt, maybe hinting to the fact that he's been there. He also looks pretty old, not to mention he is a "D."

Personally I always felt that he just put the "D" in there to make him look cooler.
And I always felt that there was some relation to the members of Rogers crew and the Strawhats…..........
I don't see how Tom would have been. He only made the ship. If he had been a member- he would have also been arrested on those charges as well as creating the ship.
Mihawk imo would have been really young and probably wasn't the best in the world at the time???
Dragon i see as the most likely one.As far as i see, anyone that was in his crew would be dead now. Including Zeff if he was.
Shanks is 37 now. minus 22 or so years and you'll see he was a very young teen at the time. 22 years ago was when Roger was executed. It took several years before he conquered the Grandline i remember reading. So Shanks would have been a young boy at the time of Roger's journey or even Whitebeard's for that matter.
Vivi was 10 at the time of that meeting. She is 14 now is it?
Chapter 142
Vivi is 16.
Anyway i think dragon might have ben a member of gold rogers crew. Crocus cant have ben one since he has been with laboum for 50 years. tom couldn't have been one either, he just build the ship.
Hey. Has anyone suggested Gaimon yet?
Dragon is the only one that really makes any sense.
Crocus would be impossible, as would Tom. I don't see Kureha having been a member, either.
I suppose there's a chance Mihawk was a member of his crew, though
Crocus could have been lying about his time spent with Laboon. Granted, they did spend a significant amount of time with each other for Crocus to build the waterway and the island-boat in his stomach, but he could have gone to sail with Roger and then COME BACK.
Nico Olivia is a perfect candidate. She left the island when Robin was 2. That was 26 years ago. Since Roger was executed 4 years later, that gave her 4 years to sail with him. Plus, her husband could have been a member of the crew as well.
D. Ragon is definitely a crewmember. There's no real question about that.
Tom and Kureha are unlikely, but he did need a shipwright and a doctor. Maybe Roger devised a way (to protect his crew) that everyone would forget who was in his crew. That upon his death, they would be able to live normal lives without problems (Well, except for D. Ragon), the most likely idea would be staging their deaths. Perhaps D. Ragon refused to do something as base as falsely killing himself (ditto with Whitebeard) and kept his bounty, which would explain why he's "The most wanted man in the world".
I called it wrong, so long ago. I guess this needs to be changed.
@Fire Fist:
D. Ragon is definitely a crewmember. There's no real question about that.
no just no …......
Oh, pssh. It's my own personal thoughts on it.
D. Ragon actually makes sense, when you think about it. Ragon can actually be read as "Racoon". We don't know his middle name, So it's just D. Ragon.
Besides, it could be a plot element.
It's like in Trigun Maximum. Legato confuses what the "real" Chapel told him about the agents (Which is actually the same person) he was sending: Double Fang (Livio personality) and Razlo the Tri-Punisher of Death. Legato misunderstood and thought it was "Trip of Death" instead of the "Tri-p" of death he was told.
It's the same with Roger. People thought it made sense to call him Gold Roger instead of Gol D. Roger because of the connotations of the Pirate King having a lot of gold.
For that matter, Doflamingo could be Donquixote D. Flamingo.
I don't know, I still think that Roger isn't dead. I mean, come on, the most powerful pirate of all time getting his head chopped off by a pair of two-bit marines? You'd think that roger would have some akuma no mie power that would let him somehow avoid that. I think the execution was a hoax, and the original Roger crew is sitting out there waiting for a new crew that could match them in strength (mugiwara) since obviously Whitebeard wasn't quite up to Roger's level. As for who they are, so much emphasis is placed on the role models for the mugiwaras, i wouldn't doubt that each one of them was, in one way or the other, directly linked to Roger's crew. The shichibukai can suck it, they don't have a clue. No one on Roger's crew would sell out like that. I wouldn't be surprised if the mugiwara link to Dragon hasn't come about yet though. BTW, is Franky going to construct Pluton when Enies Lobby is all done? Wouldn't that be a kick in the crotch to WG?

hes definatly dead having 2 spear jabbed into you near the neck'll do that

Not if you have a logian type devil fruit, or if the person who died wasn't really roger. The marines have fucked up before. I don't know what the policy is on the existence of more than one of the same type of fruit, but maybe someone had Bon Clay's powers, and transformed themselves to look like roger. Or, did anyone really know what roger looked like? I have never seen an old wanted poster for him. And they always black out his eyes.

Roger was famous. Of course they know what he looked like. Those who met him and saw him remember his presence.
And no, it was stated in an SBS that there's only one devil fruit of each type.
BUT…
It DIDN'T say that devil fruits are recycled. In fact, no one has even asked Oda what happens to Devil fruits when the users die. Do they magically go somewhere or what? Well, It's up to Oda to decide.
I still stand firm that Roger ate a Devil Fruit that split him into multiple people, sort of a Yin and Yang type deal. The dopplegangers were placed throughout history to help those that needed help.
Essentially, each "D" would be a "Division" of Roger. But they were still ordinary people who lived their lives. They would just carry part of Roger's soul. Hence, "The Will of the D".
oooo…i like that...that's a good one....
BUt wouldn't that mean that all of the mugiwara's role models would have to be divisions of him too?
...off topic, but is there a clover/crocus link?
Interesting, there MIGHT be a clover-crocus link…the Flower Tribe, or something.
On that note I say Crocus has a fair chance of having been on Roger's crew. Come on I mean, "I was even a ship's doctor for a while..." (no explanation)
I think we can safely say there's SOMETHING there, anyway.
I will not say the whole story again but unless Crocus lied to the SH, there are really few chances that he ever was on Roger's crew.
What's going on with you people suddenly writing D.Ragon instead of Dragon? Just because someone's linked to Roger does not mean he has to have a D in his name. Or is there a another theory I missed?
Thanks for the explanation.
D. Ragon because he's possibly liked to Luffy, not Roger.
Remember what Luffy kept asking everyone when D. Ragon (Dragon, whatever) appeared? "Who is it? Who's there?" etc. Meaning Luffy never saw Dragon at Loguetown. If he had, do you think he would've recognized him? Probably.
That's an interesting point. I'll admit dragon didn't reveal himself at all until A: Luffy was about to get killed and B: Luffy couldn't see him.
everyone with the D though has been named as such when they appeared he wasn't…
Roger wasn't. When the series started he was Gold Roger. It was Dr. Kureha that revealed he was Gol D. Roger.
We're overdue for a female D. Seriously.
Well for all of you who said the Shichibukai were part of Gol D. Rogers crew, your wrong. Crocodile was a shibukai and in Miss Goldenweeks mini arc it stated that Crocodile wanted to be King of the Pirates but the Grand Line ruined his mind. So i think that the people that were part of Gol D. Rogers crew were:
Gol D. Roger (Captain)
Hawkeye Mihawk (Swordsman)
Red-Leg Zeff (Cook)
Dr. Kureha (Doctor)
Dragon (Navigator)
Nico Olvia (Archeologist)
Unknown (Sniper)
Well we'll have to see if there are any snipers for the position, maybe one of the Shichibukai is a sniper. But, that's what I think I dunno. Also I don't think he had a shipwright because, I don't even think Franky will be part of the crew, so it will just be seven Muiwaras and seven people in Gol D. Rogers crew (including him).
Whitebeard was probably the Shipwright.
Look at the scar on Whitebeard's chest, though. It makes you wonder, because I don't think Roger would've caused that. It's just my guess, but Roger probably fought with his bare hands like Luffy. If anyone caused it, it was Mihawk or another Swordsman.
You bring up an interesting point about Dragon being the navigator. Perhaps he and Nami are related?
Anyway, I'm waiting for the arrival of Barbarossa in the Manga. We have Blackbeard, We have a newly created Whitebeard, now all that's missing is that infamous pirate Baba Aruj, AKA….
Redbeard.
We have no idea how roger fought, for all we knew he had the Razor Nose devil fruit. As for the scar on Whitebeard's chest, we'll probably get a long flashback about it if it's important at all.
Riding a Rhino is safer so we Ride a Hippo for Adventure!
~Bobobobo BO-bobo~
PS: I am a big fan of kittens:love:
There's no other wounds on him and he's hooked up to about a dozen different IV tanks. You tell ME if it's significant or not…
And in any case, now that I think about it, I think that Roger used a spear to fight, based upon the name, and who he was named after: Woodes Rogers, the first governer of the Bahamas.
Here, look at this picture of Rogers. That should say it all:
Oh, I can SO see roger fighting with a spear. That would explain the scar on whitebeard's chest.
I wonder what all the IV tubes are for on whitebeard. The man's gotta be half-giant, he's at least three times as big as the big boys of the franky family, so he should be extra tough. I wonder if it's not really medecine, but steroids or something? And then of course there's the fact that the bottles he's getting his whatever from have Doflamingo's sign on them.
I think when we finally catch up to whitebeard, we'll learn a lot more about Roger. It strikes me that the two of them were probably friends….
I'm rambling here, but anyone ever notice the attitude all the kickass old people in One Piece have? Zeff, Crocus (maybe wasn't a pirate, but still) Kureha, Cricket, even Kokoro (a little)
Whitebeard's name is Edward Newgate…..
if you see it like this -> Edwar D. Newgate......then it would be a whole new ball game all together, it it fits with Saul's giant attributes.........
Pro-Main Cast Evangelist. In Oda We Trust. TheJackAss Crew. AMC = Anti-main Cast. Luffy x Nami.
Why do I think Whitebeard's last name is more than it seems? Newgate…odd name...but i think Oda put a purpose on that name. Perhaps theres a gate or legacy with that name.
or, it's just a name…...and it's actually the Edward that is to look out for.....
Pro-Main Cast Evangelist. In Oda We Trust. TheJackAss Crew. AMC = Anti-main Cast. Luffy x Nami.
Edward Newgates is the real name of Whitebeard one of the most famous pirate ever.
Uh, there was no pirate named Whitebeard, sorry. Oda invented him for One Piece.
There was a Blackbeard, Edward Teach. Marshall and Newgate are prisons in England.
There was also a Redbeard, Barba Aruj or Barbarossa. I wonder if he'll make an Appearance in One Piece.
You're right my bad 
I probably mixed with blackbeard ^^ gomen
I found this site about pirates and you'll see arbida is also present and more ^^ http://www.thepirateking.com/bios/index.htm
Gotta go CYA ^^
PS : also this one ^^ http://pirateshold.buccaneersoft.com/pirates.php?alpha=a
I like to think that Dragon might some descendant of ancian civilization (the painting on the face recall also the shanian fighters) who might have had powers to interact with weather which would indeed fit quite well with navigator role. As we don't know much about Nami's origin, I would not be suprised to learn that she might be some late descendant as well or anyway linked in a way or another to Dragon as I already wrote in another post.
As for Dragon beeing a D., well I would not go that far just yet. Same for Whitebeard (though it would sure be interesting as he could be just easily linked to Saul indeed). I just would not call everyone D. just now.
Still there might be a possibility that Roger, Luffy and co. might have a D. that use to be some typical name of Ancient civilization (a la Dragon) that there forefathers wanted to somehow hide from World Government. This would then also make them some kind of descendant of the old civilization. Though they might have had a much particular role or special attribute as they all seem to have ridiculous powers.
just gonna bump this as we're at the half way point.
Well you were correct about Crocus Sabret00the
round of Applause
well, i know some people from Roger's crew:
crocus
and a man by the name of Silvers Rayleigh!
People we know who were in Roger's crew:
Roger
Rayleigh
Buggy
Shanks
Crocus
People I think:
Dragon
Kureha (not as likely since Crocus was the doctor though)
Mihawk
Franky's dad and Lola's mom (just a hunch)
People we know who weren't:
Tom (he mentioned to Franky that he "If you become a member of a crew, you'd have surpassed me!")
Clover (didn't know True History)
Olivia (didn't know True History)
For some reason i cant see Dragon,Mihawk and Olivia in his crew.
And i hoping for a appearence for a Pirate name with Bronze-something.
Tick tick tick
@123:

Why not platinum?
We gotta be like the Olympics! Gold, Silver and Bronze FTW!
^Oh I see. So you'll be surprised if a Platinum shows up instead of a Bronze?
Kinda, I guess. Usually Gold, Silver and Bronze are used together. Platinum is a newbie to metals game.
Well if its platinum then maybe we'll have Ruby,Sapphire,Quartz,Palladium… etc etc. LOL
It'll would make me think that his crew's called the Jewellery pirates
Whats Gold Roger's pirate crew called before he was the pirate king?
How can somebody even consider Olvia to have been on Rogers ship? They found out the true history which Olvia still didn't know when she returned. And having Kureha on his ship while he had Crocus is also pointless.

Uh, no it isn't. Roger's crew was obviously larger than, say the Straw hat crew. It wouldn't be out of the question to have more than one doctor on a huge crew.
@Fire Fist:

I read somewhere that Urouge's name translates to Redbeard.
@Zaerkuss:

But it was established that Roger was only able to go on his adventure because the genius doctor Crocus was able to prolong his life, which means that if Kureha was on board she was unable to get done, which appears strange for someone of her medical skill. She's too old to have been an apprentice back then.
I read somewhere that Urouge's name translates to Redbeard.
I don't know if it translates but Aruj = Urouge. They are pronounced the same way.

thers always a possibility that kureha was the doctor before, but something happened to her or she chose to abandon the crew to live in drum
She seemed to know Roger on a personal level tho. Same way Crocus did. They both said how much luffy remind them of Roger when they were talking to themselves.
She has some relation with him.
