Some people just don't like their names. That's fairly reasonable — you don't exactly get a choice in that matter — but some find a way around that by going by a different name, usually their middle name or by rearranging their names. This can also be an attempt to avert I Know Your True Name. Mundane or magical, the character in question is not comfortable with someone else holding that power over them, and there won't tell anyone, unless there's a certain amount of trust between them. In fiction, this can often be used to disguise the true identity of a character, and when their full name is revealed it is generally considered a major plot or character point. Or maybe it's just that Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep", but once you get to know him you find out his friends call him Bob. Also often used as a Shout-Out, a Historical In-Joke, to reveal that Everyone Is Related once again, a character's use of a Full-Name Ultimatum, or to make a point by revealing a Meaningful Name. Compare Only Known by Their Nickname, Do Not Call Me "Paul", Only Known by Initials, and Embarrassing First Name. See also Named in the Sequel, where an initially unnamed character is only named in a sequel or later installment, and Named by Adaptation, where said character is only named in an adaptation. |

Near the end of season 3 of Sherlock: William Sherlock Scott Holmes, who reveals his full name in a attempt to get his best friend's baby named after him. (This is actually based on a bit of Fanon, deduced from a pseudonym that the literary Holmes once used, William Escott.) There's also a bit of a flashback that shows Sherlock repeatedly trying to guess John's middle name before giving up and getting his birth certificate from somewhere. (It's Hamish, although this is also Fanon, based on Watson's wife calling him James in one story. Hamish is the Anglicised version of Seumas, the Gaelic equivalent of James.)) However, the audience already knew, since John stated it in a season 2 episode as a possible baby name for Sherlock and Irene. (However, chronologically, the flashback happened before this.) | |

Kenny's mother had gone unnamed for many years until South Park: The Fractured but Whole revealed her name to be Carol. This itself may be a case of Ascended Fanon, as "Carol" was a popular fanon name for her due to it being a common placeholder name for the mothers. | |

Bleach: When asked the name of his Zanpakuto, Ichigo doesn't take the question seriously at first, thinking that naming your weapons is silly. He's then told that all Zanpakuto have a name, and that it's up to each individual Shinigami to bond with their Zanpakuto until they are deemed worthy to learn it. Justified, since calling out the name of their Zanpakuto grants the Shinigami access to its true power, a process known as Shikai (First Release). After he loses the Shinigami powers that Rukia gave him, Ichigo undergoes training to unlock his own Shinigami powers; the last part of his training is specifically set to help Ichigo learn his Zanpakuto's name (or else Urahara will kill him). Once Ichigo casts off his fear and decides to seriously confront Urahara, the spirit of Ichigo's Zanpakuto finally grants him the right to learn its name. Ichigo's resulting outburst of power is enough to almost kill Urahara, who barely defends himself in time. Kenpachi Zaraki is notable among the Shinigami for being a Captain who does not know the name of his own Zanpakuto. It is initially assumed that he simply cannot hear the voice of his Zanpakuto because he stubbornly relies on his own fighting strength during combat, and thinks that anyone who relies on their Zanpakuto are pansies. During the final arc, however, it is revealed that ever since his first fight with Unohana, the founding Captain of the 11th Division, Kenpachi has been subconsciously supressing his true strength out of fear that he will never enjoy a fight with a Worthy Opponent if he goes all out. Once Unohana releases all of his mental blocks during a gruelling Duel to the Death at the cost of her own life, Kenpachi is finally able to hear the voice of his Zanpakuto, who happily reveals its name to him. During the early chapters of the Thousand Year Blood War arc, the mysterious leader of the Wandenreich is introduced and quickly shown to be a vicious sadist who isn't above brutalizing his own subordinates for the pettiest of reasons, but remains nameless until he leads an invasion of Soul Society. Once there, his name is revealed after Yamamoto decides to kill him personally. |

In The Once and Future King, the main character is only known as "Wart" throughout most of the first book, though we're told that this approximately rhymes with his real name.

Bones: Brennan learns that her parents were con artists who moved around a lot, and that Temperence Brennan isn't her birth name. It was originally Joy Keenan. Interestingly, both of those names seem to describe her well. As a girl, she was, presumably, happy and cheerful. Losing her parents and her brother has resulted in her keeping a lid on her emotions, hence the "temperance". | |

Carla reveals that her husband Eddie LeBec's first name is actually Guy (pronounced Gee) when one Valentine's Day while he's on the road he doesn't send her any flowers, so the gang buys some and pretends they're from him, signing it "Love, Eddie." If they were really from him it'd be signed "Love, Guy." In season 9, Rebecca discovers that Norm was really named after his grandfather, Hilary. In the final episode, Woody reveals that "Woody" is actually just his nickname, and his real name is Huckleberry. |

The Simpsons: Homer doesn't know what his middle initial, J., stand for. Then he finds out in season 10's "D'oh-in' In The Wind": it's short for Jay, as a nod to animator Jay Ward. In season 16's "Homer And Ned's Hail Mary Pass", Flanders meets with the Comic Book Guy, who reveals apropos of nothing that his name is Jeff Albertson, "but everyone calls me Comic Book Guy." In "The Great Louse Detective", we meet Homer's mechanic, Junior. Once it's revealed he's Homer's attempted murderer, he reveals his real name; Frank Grimes, Jr., out for revenge for his father's Homer-induced Sanity Slippage-related death. After being introduced in season 2's "Old Money", Professor Frink finally had his name revealed during season 6's "Bart's Comet". |

A major plot thread early on in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was Skye's quest to find her family, with her only clue being that she was left at an orphanage when she was very young. When put under a lie detector to prove her loyalty, Skye mentions that the orphanage gave her the name Mary Sue Poots, which she hates and so insists on going by her nickname. Over the course of the second season, Skye reunites with her parents and learns that her birth name is Daisy Johnson, and by the end of the season she chooses to go by that instead. | |

The first season of Heroes for some odd reason had a big reveal in the final episode that one character's name was really Noah. It's the final stage in the humanization of the character, who started the show as a seemingly absolutely cold-blooded man in black but was gradually shown to be more sympathetic, complex and heroic over the course of the first season. | |

In Queen's Shadow, it's revealed that the reason why most of Padmé's handmaidens have similar names is because they changed them to be more like hers as a symbol of loyalty. Sabé's real name is revealed to be Tsabin, and Cordé, Dormé and Versé's are Cordyn, Dorra and Versaat. | |

A major moment of character development near the end of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run is when Gyro trusts Johnny enough to reveal his real name, Julius Caesar Zeppeli, something he kept so secret that even some of his siblings didn't know it. Johnny tries to follow up with an equally important revelation, but the only secret he can think of is that he has a bug bite fetish. | |

The climax of the first novel in the Gentleman Bastard series comes from a malevolent wizards' ability to control or kill other people by knowing their true name. The audience doesn't even know that one character has been using a pseudonym for the entire book until Falcon is unable to control Locke. The character's real name is revealed to be Lamor Acanthus. At least, he thinks it is. | |

The Secret Show: Played straight in one episode, when Victor's full name is revealed to be Victor Thomas Jefferson Volt. Defied with regards to Changed Daily, whose real name is NEVER revealed, and is changed daily for "reasons of security." Usually to something ridiculous, like Nincy-Nancy Lala or Hunda Von Lampgurgle. To the point where he has a dream in one episode that his name gets changed to Rock Justice. |

In Double Homework, if the protagonist decides that he trusts Morgan most of all, she tells him her real name: Amy. It’s one of two things she has in common with Amy, the other being a birthday. This turns out to be important, as Amy is a princess, and many girls with the same date of birth as Amy were named after her (Morgan being one of them). | |

The original Japanese name of Kikujiro is Kikujiro no Natsu, literally meaning "Kikujiro's Summer". One would reasonably assume that Kikujiro is the name of the young child who spends the movie's runtime searching for his mother. However, the child's name is actually Masao, and the movie's final spoken line reveals that Kikujiro actually the name of his travelling companion, the middle-aged ex-gangster who has grown to become something of a surrogate father to Masao. | |

In A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, Francie goes to a charity Christmas concert where a rich girl named Mary is supposed to give away a doll to any "poor little girl" in the audience who is also named Mary. The announcer asks any Marys to come up onto the stage, but even though there are "at least a hundred Marys in that audience," they're all too proud to accept the title of "poor little girl." Francie can't stand to see the doll go to waste and so she raises her hand and lies that her real first name is Mary, enduring another speech about the rich girl's unselfishness and the contempt of all the other girls, and after getting the doll she feels so guilty she decides that when she makes her confirmation, she'll take the name Mary so she won't be a liar anymore. But when she suggests this to her mother, her mother tells her that although she's called Francie after a friend of the family, she was also named after her grandmother and was actually christened Mary Frances. | |

However, he serves as an Unknown Character for the events of that video and beyond. He's later given a body reveal seven months later in "War of the Fat Italians 2023", but his name remains unknown. He's only called "Mysterious TV Guy" in the credits of that episode. It's not until the release of "Mario's Mysteries" an entire year after the first hint of his existence, that his name is revealed to be named Mr. Puzzles. | |

As a child, she was friends with a girl named Echo, who was supposed to go on an infiltration mission to another tribe. Queen Nia wanted to see if Echo could kill, and forced the girls to fight to the death. Instead, Ashe killed Echo, and as the other tribe was expecting a girl called Echo, Nia had Ashe take up the name. | |

But he has revealed it to one person: Sherlock Holmes, when he shared his birth certificate with Sherlock alongside a heartfelt letter explaining his motivations, and which Sherlock even notes as William's "true" name. Whatever the name is, though, has not been revealed to the audience and Sherlock keeps the information entirely private. | |

Discworld's Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler, or just plain Throat, with his real name being Claude Maximilian Overton Transpire Dibbler. Vimes had previously only known Lord Vetinari by his last name; although it was given to readers beforehand (it's Havelock, which might be unfortunate elsewhere but this is Discworld and it could be much worse), a rather casual example of this trope by Sybil becomes actually unsettling to Vimes. He had never thought of the Patrician having a first name, or of anyone knowing him well enough to call him by it. Vimes' own first name, Samuel, only gets its first mention in the last couple pages of Guards! Guards!, when he introduces himself to a friend of Sybil's who remarks that it's a trustworthy name. Wizards mostly have a case of Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep", like "Lecturer in Recent Runes", "Senior Wrangler" and so forth. In Unseen Academicals, one of the formerly nameless wizards, the Dean, gets named, because he's left to become the Archchancellor of Brazeneck University, Unseen University's rival. Therefore Ridcully has nothing to call him but his name, as "Archchancellor was out of the question, Dean too obvious an insult, Two-Chairs ditto with knobs on." After digging up memories from school, Ridcully loudly greets the former Dean with "Henry!" |

In the season finale the newly-introduced Big Bad Moff Gideon shows that he already knows everything about Mando, including that his birth name is Din Djarin. (Cara's full name is apparently Carasynthia Dune, though that's not as dramatic.) In the middle of season two, "the Child" is revealed to be named Grogu. |

In The Adventures of Dr. McNinja, the titular doctor's first name remains a secret for most of the series. In a flashback episode, it's shown that Dr. McNinja's grandfather used his name as part of a powerful spell to entrap a ghost who'd accidentally been unleashed during a simple assassination mission. Doing so deleted the doctor's name from everyone's minds except his own, and it could never be used again without undoing the spell. During the first part of the final story, Dr. McNinja gave his name to Sparklelord in exchange for help defeating King Radical; the consequences of this are in the midst of being explored. His name, incidentally, is Patrick. | |

The Order of the Stick: Played for Laughs when two Mauve Shirt Azurite soldiers go to hold off the enemy while the heroes escape. Elan laments that they're sure to die, since they don't even have names. As they fight, the female soldier notes that she does have a name, Kazumi Kato. The male soldier is struck, apparently dying, and whispers to her that his name is Daigo... then suddenly gets better. They follow up on it at their wedding, as they've still yet to come to such an emergency and avoid saying his full name. Still later, he tries to reveal his full name when a squad of ninja are trying to assassinate them, but only gets out "Daigo Da—" before being knocked unconscious. |

In Holes, members of the Yelnats family have been Born Unlucky since one of their ancestors stole a pig from an old Gypsy woman named Madame Zeroni. Eventually, the curse sends Stanley Yelnats IV to a juvenile detention camp for a crime he didn't commit. All the boys there use nicknames, though he eventually learns their real names as well. Of particular note is his friend Zero, aka Hector Zeroni, which means nothing to Stanley but a lot to the reader. | |

Joel and Ellie from The Last of Us were given the surnames "Miller" and "Williams" respectively in early production. These names were scrapped from the game itself, so it was unclear if those names were still canon. The Last of Us Part II confirms that Joel's last name is indeed "Miller" when Abby addresses him as such. Neil Druckmann indirectly confirmed Ellie's last name to be "Williams" in this tweet. The PS5 port of The Last of Us: Part I lists Tess' full name as "Theresa Servopoulos" on her I.D. | |

In Undertale, it's eventually revealed that the character you named at the beginning isn't the player character, whose actual name is Frisk. While that character's actual name is never revealed, it is theorized that their proper name is Chara, as the game will lock your choice if you choose that name. This also happens right after Flowey returns to his true form. His name is revealed to be Asriel Dreemurr, which makes it clear that he's the lost son of Asgore mentioned in the story at the end of the Neutral Route. | |

In Cave Story, the Player Character's name is revealed at the end of a long Side Quest filled with Guide Dang It! moments that is required to achieve the game's Golden Ending. It's Quote, which fits in with the typographical Theme Naming of another major character, Curly Brace. Of course, you're likely to have found this out already if you used an online walkthrough. After completing the game's Brutal Bonus Level but before fighting the True Final Boss, you can see the name of The Doctor on a statue of him: Fuyuhiko Date. |

Then, McKay's sister shows up for an episode, calls him "Meredith", and the rest is (hilarious) history. To be fair, though, Meredith started out as a man's name before transitioning into gender-neutral territory and, eventually, being thought of as mostly feminine. | |

The Owl House: "Covention" reveals that Eda is actually short for Edalyn. "Something Ventured, Someone Framed" reveals that her last name is Clawthorne. In "Wing It Like Witches", Willow's last name is revealed to be Park. Gus' surname is revealed to be Porter in "Young Blood Old Souls". Even though their names were already revealed by Word of God beforehand, Amity's parents are stated to be named Alador and Odalia in "Escaping Expulsion". In "Hunting Palismen", the Golden Guard tells Luz that his name is Hunter. "Any Sport In A Storm" has a few examples. The Abominations teacher at Hexside is called Professor Hermonculus, the author of The Good Witch Azura books is shown to be Mildred Featherwhyle, and Amity addresses Tiny Nose as Tinella Nosa, which Luz is surprised by. In "Hollow Mind", it turns out that the name of Hunter's cardinal palisman is Flapjack, although like Amity's parents this was also revealed by Word of God beforehand. While it had previously been hinted at in "Any Sport in a Storm", "King's Tide" reveals that Belos/Philip's brother was named Caleb. Played for laughs in "For the Future", where it turns out that Mattholomule's real name is... Matt Tholomule. Everyone has unknowlingly been on a Full-Name Basis with him the entire time. |

In Overwatch Sombra is the only character whose name isn't given in her biography or in-game. Considering that she deliberately deleted all record of her existence when she became Sombra, it fits. However, she didn't account for people in her hometown still knowing who she is, which leads to Zarya discovering that her name is Olivia Colomar in the comic Zarya: Searching. The New Blood comic and accompanying Cassidy's New Blood in-game event centers around Cole Cassidy, the resident Cowboy, as he attempts to finally break away from his criminal past by shedding his alias and going by his real name.note That's the in-universe explanation. The out-universe explanation was Blizzard feeling it prudent to remove a Tuckerization of Jesse McCree, Cassidy's former namesake, who had been forced out of the company over sexual harassment. |

Quantum Leap: In an early episode Sam doesn't know the name of the kid with the guitar who hangs out at his veterinarian's office, in mid-1950s Lubbock, Texas. Then Sam hears him sing "Piggy Suey", and realizes both the boy's name and what he's there to do. "Uh, Buddy, why don't you try 'Peggy Sue' instead?" (This is historically inaccurately because Buddy Holly didn't write the song anyway and it was originally to be called 'Cindy Lou'.) In another, horror-themed episode (which may not have actually happened — it's complicated) a supporting character named Stevie turns out to have been a young Stephen King. |

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: A plot point with Garak, the only name anyone on the station knows him by. When dying from a mystery condition, he tells Doctor Bashir a number of contradictory tales about why he was exiled from Cardassia. All of them seemed to have one thing in common: a man called Elim who was either betrayed by Garak or who betrayed Garak, depending on the version of the tale. When Doctor Bashir finally tracks down the one Cardassian who can help cure Garak's condition, Bashir asks him whatever happened to Elim after Garak was exiled. The answer is not what Bashir had expected. Also, it's later revealed that Garak is Tain's son, although, as head of the Obsidian Order, Tain couldn't afford to have such a weakness that his enemies would use against him, so he had Garak's mother Mila (Tain's maid) claim that someone else was the father. In a proper world, Garak's real name would have been Elim Tain. |

Swims with the Fishes," where Buster judges a swimming contest and declares that the winner is "Emily, whose last name I don't know!" In Arthur's First Day, over 30 years after her debut, Muffy is assigned to be her Big Buddy partner and the fact sheet shows her name as Emily Leduc. Arthur's First Day also reveals via the 4th grade/kindergarten class rosters that the previously unknown last names of Alex, the gray Living Prop rabbit boy in Arthur's class, and Brain's cousin Cheikh are "Davidson" and "Diouf," respectively. | |

Steven Universe: In gem harvest it is revealed that Greg Universe’s original last name was DeMayo In "Legs From Here to Homeworld", the Centipeetle (the Gem Monster from "Gem Glow", "Monster Buddies", and "Monster Reunion") reappears, and Steven, Yellow Diamond and Blue Diamond use their powers to temporarily restore her mind and original body, at which point the Centipeetle's real name is revealed to be Nephrite. In this case, the reason Nephrite's name hasn't been given for so long is not because of embarrassment, but rather because she was too feral-minded to properly communicate. |

When the first issue of Naomi was solicited, it merely refers to the titular heroine as "Naomi (last name?)". Indeed, her surname is not brought up at all until ending of the sixth and last issue of her series, when her adopted mother tells her, "I'm insanely proud of you, Naomi McDuffie." | |

Star Trek Defied in the Star Trek: The Original Series episode, "This Side of Paradise". Star Trek: The Next Generation: After starting as a nameless helmsman in the pilot "Encounter At Farpoint", Colm Meaney's character, now working as the transporter chief, is given the name O'Brien and treated as a real character starting in season 2's "Unnatural Selection". In season 4's "Family" his full name is established as Miles Edward O'Brien. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: A plot point with Garak, the only name anyone on the station knows him by. When dying from a mystery condition, he tells Doctor Bashir a number of contradictory tales about why he was exiled from Cardassia. All of them seemed to have one thing in common: a man called Elim who was either betrayed by Garak or who betrayed Garak, depending on the version of the tale. When Doctor Bashir finally tracks down the one Cardassian who can help cure Garak's condition, Bashir asks him whatever happened to Elim after Garak was exiled. The answer is not what Bashir had expected. Also, it's later revealed that Garak is Tain's son, although, as head of the Obsidian Order, Tain couldn't afford to have such a weakness that his enemies would use against him, so he had Garak's mother Mila (Tain's maid) claim that someone else was the father. In a proper world, Garak's real name would have been Elim Tain. |

In Slow Damage, many people don't have official birth certificates due to how Shinkoumi operates and therefore go by chosen nicknames, leaving any character's name revealed this way to be given some heavy focus. The protagonist goes by the nickname of as Towa, with it revealed that he can't remember his given name and hearing it is basically a Trauma Button to him, even repressing it if he hears it again. His real name is Sakuragi Haruto. His mother went by the stage name of 'Maya' with her given name being Sakuragi Yuma. And the final, given name reveal comes for Towa's little sister that died of an illness years ago. Her name was Yuzuki Mei, revealing not only her name, but also that she was never related to Towa to begin with — she's actually Fujieda's little sister. | |

Doctor Impossible also notes that he never knew his friend Pharaoh's name (Nelson Gerard) until reading it in the heroes' files. | |

The son's first name is mentioned at some point in the webseries, while the novel mentions his full name. Someone reveals the father's full name in Season 5, revealing the connection for novel readers. However, to keep webseries-only viewers up to speed, the father immediately shows up and brings up the son in conversation, while the following episode has a flash-back that mentions the son's first name and sheds any possible doubt on his identity. | |

This is a big plot point in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Harry comes upon a mysterious book that turns out to be the diary of Tom Riddle, who received an award for services to the school fifty years ago around the same time that students were getting attacked in a series of events similar to those of the present, which Tom tells Harry was for helping to stop the attacks. At the end, Ginny lying unconscious in the Chamber in question and Tom Riddle is right there. What does Tom do? He picks up Harry's wand, uses it to write out his full name (Tom Marvolo Riddle) in midair, and then rearranges the letters to spell out the message "I am Lord Voldemort". Played With in later books: Harry finds a note by left for Voldemort by "R.A.B.," but doesn't know who it is. In this case he already knew of the person, but lacked a middle initial: it's Sirius' brother, Regulus Arcturus Black. |

Regular Show: In "Skips Strikes", Death and the Magical Elements go against the Skips and the park staff in a game of bowling. Skips is their best player, and Death, not wanting to lose, reveals that Skips' true name isn't Skips, threatening to tell everyone his real name if Skips participates in the bowling competition. Skips quits, not wanting his true name to be revealed, but later chooses to help his friends. Skips' real name is revealed to be Walks, having changed it because he got tired of people asking him why he skipped while his name was Walks. | |

One Piece: One of the reasons why Corazon (Donquixote Rocinante) tried to keep Trafalgar Law away from his older brother Donquixote Doflamingo was because of his full name, which, had Doflamingo learned of it, would have gotten Law killed. Law himself was instructed by his parents to keep it secret — as it's Trafalgar D. Water Law. It comes to a surprise for Sanji and his crew when Capone Bege reveals his surname Vinsmoke, as it's the name of the ruling family of the Germa 66, AKA the mythical Evil Army. Naturally, Sanji despises his connection to Germa and refuses to be addressed as "Vinsmoke Sanji", unfortunately it ends up on his bounty poster. The Five Elders go unnamed for well over 800 chapters since their introduction, until their full names are formally revealed during the Egghead arc as they finally begin to take a more active role in the plot. |

Futurama: Leela is being interviewed on TV in "The Problem with Popplers" and is introduced as "Turanga Leela"note Though this actually seems to be her surname. Fry's full name was briefly shown◊ on a screen in the first episode but it isn't mentioned until season 2's Poppler episode. Bender himself once comments that Bending is his middle name, his full name being Bender Bending Rodriguez. Zoidberg's first name appears in a throwaway gag in "The 30% Iron Chef", on a letterhead reading "From the Desk of John Zoidberg, M.D." The show was fairly consistent about this in subsequent seasons, with Farnsworth and Mom applying First-Name Basis to him. Zoidberg also casually refers to Mom as Carol very late into the show. |

A common theme in The Adventure Zone: The Adventure Zone: Balance: in the first episode of Crystal Kingdom, Lucas Miller inadvertently reveals Madame Director's real name: Lucretia. It means nothing to the Tres Horny Boys and the listeners, but Lucretia is nonetheless annoyed because she fears it might bring back their memories of her. The Adventure Zone: Amnesty: in Episode 20, Ned's old partner Boyd begins describing One Last Job for Ned: to steal a statue from a local artist named Madeleine Cobb. When Boyd mentions that Cobb runs a nearby hotel, Ned realizes with horror that he means his boss and leader of the Pine Guard, Mama. Also in Amnesty, Duck Newton refuses to divulge his given name, and it's only at the climax of the story that we learn that it's Wayne. |

The Flash Sentry Chronicles: At the beginning of Season 2, Flash Sentry discovers the old orphanage he was left at when he was a baby that burned down with the caretakers believing he died in the fire. He learns there that his birth name is actually "Flash Relic". Despite learning this though, he prefers to keep his new name "Flash Sentry" since that is who he believes he is now. Several members of The Cult of Shadow are revealed to be using an allies. Terror Card, a unicorn with Fortune Teller-like magic, is revealed to actually be named "Glitter". It was revealed in flashbacks that when she first joined Shadow Corrupter and Tempera she told them to call her Terror Card, remembering the name some foals gave her tarot cards, believing she would never be respected by them with her real name. Storm Blade is revealed to be the former Royal Guard named "Swift Wind". During his final mission, he stole his former friend Noble Banner's Celestic Gear for himself, and then used it to murder Noble and the bandits they were fighting. Swift faked his own death by using one of the burnt corpses as a substitute for his own body, and he took on the name of his own Celestic Gear as his new name, "Storm Blade". Shadow Corrupter himself is also using an alternate name. When Flash sees visions of Shadow's past, he sees that as a kid he was originally "Gleaming Path", but after undergoing the sacrificial ritual to revive the Corrupted Shadow, he became "Shadow Corrupter", naming himself after his new powers. An "Intended Name Reveal" is given for Spike in Dragon's Awakening. When he, First Aid, and Flicker speak to the spirit of Silverbolt, Spike's biological father, Silverbolt momentarily calls Spike "Pyro" a few times. When he is asked about this he explains that Fira had a list of names chosen for Spike, depending on what gender and element he was born with, and "Pyro" was the one for if he was a boy with the fire element. By the end of the story, Spike adopts the name as his Middle Name, making his full official name "Spike Pyro Dragon". |

This is a major focus of the Holy Grail Wars in Fate/stay night. Various Heroic Spirits are summoned under classes (etc. Saber, Archer, Lancer) to hide their identity. Thus, learning a Servant's name informs their opponent what their strengths and weaknesses are, especially their Noble Phantasm, a specific weapon or ability tied to their legend (for example, King Arthur as a Saber-class can use the sword Excalibur). A more specific form of this in the reveal of Rin's Archer-class Servant, a version of Shirou from the future determined to kill his past self for a lot of reasons. |

LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace, set during the prequel trilogy, features an orphan boy who stowaways to Coruscant and hides out with some Jedi younglings on a field trip. Since everyone else is wearing a name tag, he finds some letter decals and puts them on his shirt so that they say "IAN". Nobody addresses him by that name until the end of the episode when he looks down and realizes that he made a mistake: the "I" is actually an "H" turned sideways. His name is Han Solo. | |

On Young Justice Robin's real name (Dick Grayson) is never really hidden from the audience, but Batman prefers he keep it hidden from the rest of the Team for security reasons. The fact that Wally knows his real identity demonstrates how close they are. (In a tie-in comic Wally can snap out of a supervillain-induced Heroic BSoD by remembering that Robin trusted him with the information.) In season two, Bart proves that he's from the future by casually giving away Dick and Tim's real names. Gar finds them kind of underwhelming. |

This has happened to Sherlock Holmes three times (-although twice in Films): During the climax to The Asylum's Mockbuster Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes, Holmes's villainous brother repeatedly refers to him as "Robert". Holmes later reveals that his full name is "Robert Sherlock Holmes" and that he goes by his middle name because "who would remember a detective named Robert Holmes?" In the made-for-TV-movie Sherlock Holmes in New York (starring Roger Moore) Holmes, upon learning that Irene Adler has a young son named Scott, tells Watson that his full name is William Sherlock Scott Holmes. Similarly, in Sherlock, Holmes reveals that to be his name. That is actually a piece of Fanon: Holmes once used the pseudonym William Escott. Sherlockian writers took that as a play on William S. Scott and surmised that he was named after the writer William Sherlock. Another Holmes example from Young Sherlock Holmes. The villain, Rathe, is seen to have survived at the end of the movie and signs into a hotel under the name "Moriarty". |

Whereas all the plot you get in Team Fortress 2 proper is "mercenaries killing each other over vague objectives," with the characters only being known their job title, the comics have shown the actual names of some of the characters: Soldier's name is Sergeant-Barrister Jane Doe (although that almost certainly isn't his real name), Demoman's is Tavish Finnegan DeGroot, Engineer's is Dell Conagher, Heavy's first name is Misha (Short for Mikhail), Sniper's last name is Mundy/Mun-Dee, Medic's last name is Ludwig, and Scout's first name is Jeremy. Fittingly, the names of the Spy and the Pyro are unknown. When the Team Fortress Classic characters appear in the "Mann Co. No More!" storyline, we find out the Classic Demoman and Classic Pyro's first names: Greg for Demo, and Beatrice/Bea for Pyro. |

In God of War (PS4), Kratos never introduces himself by name in the entire game and is only ever referred to by nicknames, pronouns, and titles like "sir" or "father." The first exception is in a flashback where a figure from Kratos' past calls him by name. Since it's Zeus saying it, the name and Kratos' parentage are fittingly revealed in the same moment. The name is used twice more, but both times its in passing during a chaotic scene, so players are likely to miss it. | |

Doctor Who: The Doctor has never revealed his true name. This was toyed with for an entire season once, and in the last episode of the season he apparently whispered it into River Song's ear at her wedding. Turlough is only ever called Turlough until his final story, when it is revealed his first name is Vislor. "Timelash": The Doctor accidentally involves a Victorian man called Herbert in an adventure, in which the Doctor takes him for a ride on his Time Machine to meet an invisible man and to prevent an interplanetary war involving Morlocks. At the end, it is revealed that his full name is Herbert Wells. "Utopia": The Doctor, Martha and Jack meet Professor Yana, a kindly scientist who's helping a group of humans at the end of the universe get to the titular location. It's later revealed that the name is an acronym of "You Are Not Alone", the last words of the Face of Boe from earlier in the season, and that Yana is actually the Master pulling a Memory Gambit. In her first appearance, Amy is introduced as seven-year-old Amelia Pond, so she can go by Amy when she's older for a short while without the Doctor knowing. River Song's original name is revealed in "A Good Man Goes to War" to be Melody Pond, taking the other name thanks to a translation from the language of the people of the Gamma Forest. This reveals her as the child of the Doctor's companions, and, later, the Impossible Astronaut. This makes her both the Doctor's murderer and saviour. She was (in between these revelations) also discovered to be Rory and Amy's rebellious childhood friend, Mels (who Amy named her daughter after), who regenerates into the portrayal by Alex Kingston when she gets shot by Adolf Hitler. In "The Zygon Inversion", we finally find out why Osgood is on a Last-Name Basis... her given name is Petronella. Ouch. |

In Many Waters, the protagonists are sent back to Bible Times, though they spend a good portion of the book thinking that they've been transported to some primitive planet with Human Aliens. Readers who are more familiar with the Bible could probably figure out the truth, but the most famous Biblical character, Noah, is only named about 100 pages in; prior to that he was "Lemech's son," "Japheth's father" and so on. | |

South Park: The identity of Mysterion is deliberately left vague during his first few appearances. Even when he's unmasked, the rest of the characters immediately recognize him but don't address him by name, leaving the audience in the dark about his identity since the show's art style makes most of the kids indistinguishable from each other if they aren't wearing their usual outfit. In "Mysterion Rises", however, Stan casually calls him "Kenny" for a deliberately anticlimactic reveal. The Goth Kids are introduced in season 7, but only the one girl, Henrietta, is named until season 17's episode "Goth Kids 3: Dawn of the Posers". The tall, curly-haired one is named Michael; the one with multi-colored hair is named Pete; and the kindergartener is named Firkle. Kenny's mother had gone unnamed for many years until South Park: The Fractured but Whole revealed her name to be Carol. This itself may be a case of Ascended Fanon, as "Carol" was a popular fanon name for her due to it being a common placeholder name for the mothers. Through the course of the series, Red's last name had remained unknown. The Pandemic Special reveals that her last name is McArthur. |

Lilo & Stitch: In the The Series episode "Fibber", Pleakley's mother reveals that his first name is "Wendy", which apparently means "great warrior" on his planet. Lilo and Nani were amused by this. In the episode "Nosy", Gantu finds out from Dr. Jacques von Hämsterviel's journal (which Nosy stole) that Hämsterviel's real first name is "Rupert". In the episode "Shush", Lilo and Stitch learn through the titular experiment's eavesdropping abilities that Mrs. Hasagawa's first name is "Lynne". |

Mrs. Underwood, however, continues to call her husband's apprentice "Nathaniel" long after she's supposed to... which allows Bartimaeus, Nathaniel's unwilling Familiar, to overhear and get a bit of leverage on his master. | |

During his argument toward Lord Dominator, he talks about his name and at one point says, "It's not really my...", only to quickly change the subject before he finishes. Later on in the season, he was revealed to have an original nickname, Tumbleweed, but changed his name to Wander after Sylvia called him a "wandering weirdo" upon their first encounter. | |

On Day 5, he finally tells you: it's Casper. Seeing as this reveal happens one day after he has proven himself to be an actual Grim Reaper, this is one of the first signs of him growing more willing to break protocol as he starts falling in love with you. | |

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: JoJolion: Josuke, who has lost his memory, finds out his actual name is Yoshikage Kira. ...But is then Subverted, since it turns out Yoshikage Kira was not him, but one of two people who fused to create him. A major moment of character development near the end of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run is when Gyro trusts Johnny enough to reveal his real name, Julius Caesar Zeppeli, something he kept so secret that even some of his siblings didn't know it. Johnny tries to follow up with an equally important revelation, but the only secret he can think of is that he has a bug bite fetish. |

Season 2 reveals that Grunkle Stan Pines has been living under an assumed name. His real name is Stanley Pines, while Stanford is his twin brother whose identity he assumed. |
