In Name Only	comment	This occurs when a derivative work (an adaptation, a remake, or a reimagining) is so different from the work it took its name from that the only thing actually tying it to the original work is the title, a few character names and, if lucky, the broad premise. It would stand perfectly as an original work if references to the source were removed. This can happen when the work was originally intended as something completely different, but, being slightly similar to an existing franchise, it is changed to fit in that franchise, or it can be straight-up title hijack. One reason this happens is the fact that established properties and "name awareness" makes things much easier to get greenlit than original properties. In some cases producers purchase franchise rights for the name alone, and slap it on their own original product as a way of getting it pushed through the studio system. Video Game and Cult Classic franchises are especially prone to being used this way by third parties with no other interest in the franchise, as they are often relatively cheap to buy or license for this purpose. In some cases, this is even done for the purposes of hanging onto the trademark. If the project began life as an original work and was altered in the process to be part of an established work, that makes it a Dolled-Up Installment. The inverse of this would be Divorced Installment. Many a Cash-Cow Franchise has descended to this at least once. It may be considered the Oddball in the Series. The response often involves They Changed It, Now It Sucks!, but an In Name Only work may well be decent, or even good (if not better), as long as it's assessed on its own merits rather than being measured by how faithful it is to the original work; in effect, the work in question is a Contested Alternate Continuity or Adaptation. If the work in question is not an attempted adaptation of another work, but merely sports a misleading name, that's a Non-Indicative Name. If the name used to be relevant but less or even not later, it is Artifact Title. If an adaptation continues after the original source material runs out, that's Adaptation Expansion. If multiple works share the same name but are unrelated, you have Similarly Named Works. A good way to tell if an example is really this trope or just a bad adaptation: if one were to change the title to something else, would anyone understand that the work is supposed to be an adaptation? If the answer is "no", then the adaptation is this trope.note Changing character names is not necessary for the test; there is always the possibility of coincidence, or of Shout-Out Theme Naming. See also Old Guard Versus New Blood. A Transplanted Character Fic may often feel like this. Contrast Serial Numbers Filed Off, Spiritual Successor,note Which are basically In All But Name Exactly What It Says on the Tin, Expy, Remake.

While in canon, Vader ruthlessly killed Admiral Ozzel for bungling an attack on the rebels and nearly murdered Admiral Motti for insulting him, this Vader doesn't do more than glare at Piett for openly defying him at every turn.

In Name Only / int_469e3e2f	comment	In-Universe, Mobile Suit Crossbone Gundam has a moment where one transfer student talks about the Space Pirates supposedly having a Gundam and another student remarks "These days, the media calls anything with two eyes and antennae a Gundam". A margin note from artist Yuichi Hasegawa reveals that Yoshiyuki Tomino (the creator of the Gundam franchise) specifically asked him to include this line. This is also something of a joke on how frequently Gundam gets reboots of this variety. Some stories do take place in the original universe or carry through the original themes and worldbuilding elements, but others have nothing in common aside from having robots that are named Gundams and designed somewhat after the ones in the original series. Mobile Fighter G Gundam is one of the more obvious examples, outright jumping from Real Robot Genre to Super Robot Genre.

In Name Only / int_680bb6b1	comment	In Shin Getter Robo Armageddon, this is done with Go. The manga version is the protagonist of Getter Robo Go, and is shown as a blunt, Hot-Blooded, battle-ready type who hails from a common background and is mostly the Audience Surrogate. In Armageddon, he's a more secondary character, his personality is far more stoic, calm, and mysterious, and he has the most unusual background of the crew, being an Artificial Human with supernatural powers created to control the Shin Dragon. The only thing they share is their appearance, their first name, and the fact that they're both Getter pilots. This seems to have been done to differentiate him from Ryoma, who has a bit of a lock on the "gruff, hot-tempered hero" archetype in the franchise.

The manga is a direct sequel to the original Getter Robo, while the anime is self-contained, and many aspects notable to the manga, such as the fast-paced action, Cosmic Horror Story themes, and incredibly dark tone, are absent; the anime is almost entirely a typical Super Robot series. A large number of other characters, including the entire returning Getter Robo cast, are absent. It's also an odd one out in terms of Getter Robo in general, with aspects like the Getter Rays and the typical cast being absent.

In Name Only / int_72e0023f	type	Invoked Trope
In Name Only / int_72e0023f	comment	Tom Scioli deliberately invoked this for Transformers vs. G.I. Joe. Rather than make a straight adaptation/crossover, he chose to mostly ignore the official lore and make stuff up based on the toys themselves, crafting the feeling of a kid playing with action figures and making up stories as they go along. Thus you get stuff like Destro being an immortal cyborg rather than an arms dealer or Ultra Magnus as The Grim Reaper rather than a no-nonsense commander. That said, there's also a lot of Mythology Gags that confirm that Scioli is very familiar with both. This is taken even further with a special that was apparently meant to be a comic adaptation of a nonexistent film that adapted the original story, where the process has essentially turned it into an in-name-only adaptation of an in-name-only adaptation.

Once the higher-ups learned of this, JosÃ© got fired and Princess was unceremoniously booted.

Hence why it includes things like Espio being a psychopath with roidrage and a plot that amounts to â€œthe Chaotix stand around and talk about drugs for five minutesâ€�. Given the seriesâ€™s usual brand of Surreal Humor, it fits perfectly.

The most unrecognizable is Edel, who goes from being a quiet, mysterious woman in doll-like clothing and a huge updo to an energetic mentor who wears slinky dresses and her hair down—oh, and just happens to be the Big Bad of the manga. The consensus among fans range from "It's sort of funny I guess..." to pretending it doesn't exist at all.

In Name Only / int_8bc5e5a1	type	Rap Rock
In Name Only / int_8bc5e5a1	comment	The Meat Puppets' Golden Lies was originally intended to be an entirely new Curt Kirkwood project called Royal Neanderthal Orchestra, hence his being the only original member of the band involved. As with the Red House Painters example, this is because he couldn't get the label to put the album out without the Meat Puppets name attached to it. Golden Lies was at least in a similar style to what the Meat Puppets had been doing in the mid-90s, albeit with a somewhat heavier sound and the curious addition of some Rap Rock influences. This lineup of the band also put out a Live Album that was a mix of Golden Lies material and older Meat Puppets songs. Los Angeles art punk group Monitor's 1980 self-titled album includes one song entirely performed by Meat Puppets; Monitor wrote the song "Hair" themselves, but when it came to recording, they had trouble keeping up the breakneck tempo the song required, so they invited the Meat Puppets to the studio and had them play it instead. "Hair" has subsequently appeared as a bonus track on a reissue of the first Meat Puppets album.

In Name Only / int_bb82c453	comment	Hathi is a bumbling but benevolent Modern Major General, rather than the heavily scarred, human-hating Shell-Shocked Veteran from the stories.

In Name Only / int_c2288824	type	A Nazi by Any Other Name
In Name Only / int_c2288824	comment	The canon Empire were for all intents and purposes space nazis and usually the only "good" ones were lower level members of the military who often defected. In this series, almost all seem to be genuinely nice people who emphasize tolerance towards others with the one notable exception being Admiral Piett.

In Name Only / int_d7c3ba61	type	Race Lift
In Name Only / int_d7c3ba61	comment	The same is true for Wally West. He was still Iris West's nephew, but he now had a Race Lift and an Age Lift; the latter was a problem, because it meant that he had no connection to his former friends like Dick Grayson, who were still portrayed as adults post-reboot. He was also a hoodlum with a more sullen personality. Eventually DC Rebirth brought the original Wally back and Ret Conned the new version into his same-named cousin (though a later retcon undid the "cousin" aspect and confirmed the newer Wally was literally meant to replace the original).

In Name Only / int_db08a39d	type	Animesque
In Name Only / int_db08a39d	comment	There's an Animesque Brazilian spin off◊ of Little Lulu where the characters in question are teens. The plot is basically a generic teen Slice of Life (with some drama here and there) with characters whose only similarities with the original are their names. And the original cartoons produced by Famous Studios in the 1940s bore almost no resemblance to the comics, keeping only the title character Lulu (though some of her friends did appear in a few shorts, very few though).

In Name Only / int_e2157051	comment	In Brainbug's "Nightmare (Sinister Strings Mix)", the only vestige left of the forgotten original mix is the Dream Melody from the breakdown. The rest of the original was a piano trance tune in the style of Robert Miles.

In Name Only / int_ed05cfee	comment	Luke, rather than a somewhat whiny NaÃ¯ve Newcomer Ace Pilot, is instead a Gadgeteer Genius on par with Tony Stark while also being an extremely charismatic public speaker and a total ball of sunshine that basically everyone adores. He's also apparently talented at basically everything from surgery to tracking to molecular engineering, and can consciously use the Force despite no training.
