Got six right.  Pure lucky guesses all.  I didn't recognize a single character.

Most of these characters are just disposable Xavier School students.

Steve, I've heard of Forget-Me-Not once before and I think it's such an interesting/tragic idea/power. He must live a very lonely life.

44% mostly by luck than knowledge! Three things struck
me,they are really scraping the barrel for powers,they
are really scraping the barrel for code names and i find
the art really ugly and not to my taste,i guess i`ve
been spoiled by the likes of J.B.,Dave Cockrum,George
Perez,Walt Simonson,The Romitas and Buscemas to name a
few!

Scored a whopping 4 %. Had no idea who any of these were. Long time since I've read an X-Men comic. And I feel in no big hurry to pick one up again...

One of the characters was a mutant whose power was to explode -- only he could not reconstitute after doing so.

I was immediately reminded of the joke that used to be around the Marvel offices when I was starting out -- that there was a third Summers brother who had exploded upon reaching puberty.

I also found myself wondering exactly how this character would know he had this power?

Feels similar to the Silence from Doctor Who.

PS. 28%, I think I knew 2 of them.

36% - Guessed on nearly everything. I did know the 1 or 2 from Morrison's run, which I read.  

(And I guess we can't say creators at Marvel aren't creating new characters these days!)
