Okay, so bodybuilder, construction, software build... Huh. It could also be build as in "create."
We could also be looking at a name that says more about the show's secondary theme than about its hero, a la Ex-Aid. (Most were speculating about an ambulence-themed Rider around this time last year, and although most of the core Riders of turned out to be doctors, the suit designs and powers were something else altogether. Then again, Ex-Aid was a more abstract name. Build - assuming that's the right romanization for what they intend - sounds pretty... um... concrete.
Well, okay, who would've expected Kamen Rider Blade to revolve around playing cards?
Here's an oddball, almost-certainly-wrong idea: the romanization could be poor if it was supposed to approximate "billed" or "bullet," and translated with someone unfamiliar with the context. (Given how trademark works, this is highly unlikely.)
Construction - if that's even an element - does initially strike me as a dodgy theme, but that's mostly about Drive's many build-related tires.
OH. Hm. Maybe "build" as in a shortened form of "building?" That might evoke a theme of doors, levels, elevators, and/or stairs.
Regardless, I've a strong suspicion that we'll be hearing "Build... UP!" a great deal over the next year.
