Malicious Misnaming | comment |
A person dislikes another person and intentionally (usually repeatedly) calls them a name to rile them up, specifically a mutation of their own name. It can range from insults with (reasonably) good wordplay, like if Bob calls Alice "Malice", to something embarrassingly juvenile, like if Bob calls Alice "Callous", which isn't related to her name, or something that's not even a word like "Smalice" ("Smelly Alice"). Another possibility is that Bob is deliberately garbling the name to indicate that he considers Alice unworthy of even the basic courtesy of getting her name right. Another variation is when a person changes their name to reflect a change in their life but someone else refuses to acknowledge the change and keeps referring to them by their old name. Deadnaming a trans person on purpose is an especially insulting example of this. Conversely, this can also happen when a person doesn't make an expected name change, but someone thinks they should have and insists on referring to them as though they had; the most common example would be a woman who doesn't change her last name when she marries and disapproving friends/relatives insisting on calling her "Mrs. [Husband's Name]" as a refusal to acknowledge the decision not to take the husband's name. Such a character will of course ignore when the person attempts to correct the pronunciation of their name. May be a form of Irritation Is the Sincerest Form of Flattery and Embarrassing Nickname. See also Hey, You!. Compare Accidental Misnaming, where the character genuinely can't remember the other character's name. Also see Fauxdian Slip. |

MonteFjanton: In their review series Felix Recenserar, Felix has used two nicknames for Dingo Pictures: "Dongo Pongo" when reviewing their take on Pochahontas, and "Herr Kukless" (Mr. Cockless) when reviewing Hercules. Downplayed in their series Mystikhörnan. In a flashback, Leffe tells Morgan that he doesn't want to be called that, yet Morgan insists on doing that over the course of the entire series; the nickname itself technically isn't malicious,note it is a common nickname for people called Leif but the fact Morgan keeps using it against his wishes (and usually while telling him to shut the hell up) is. |

Eliezer Ben-Yehuda, the man who almost single-handedly made Hebrew a living language again, often mocked the famous poet Khayim Nakhman Bialiknote Mayim Bialik's great-great-great granduncle this way, opposing his status as Israel's national poet.note While he is Israel's national poet today, alongside Shaul Chernikhovsky to some extent, many people nowadays challenge his position as such and prefer Natan Alterman instead. There was a documentary produced on the issue a few years ago. | |

Umineko: When They Cry has the rather unusual case of Yasu in Episode 7, a servant scorned and mocked by their older fellow servants due to their young age and inexperience and thus given this nickname. Their last name is "Yasuda", but we never learn the given name, so the fandom only knows this character as "Yasu", even though they hate being called that. Well, the fandom also knows them as "Shannon", "Kanon" or "Beatrice". | |

In Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Trials and Tribulations, rival prosecutor Godot frequently mispronounces Phoenix's last name, addressing him only as "Trite" instead of "Wright". He does this out of contempt, believing Phoenix responsible for Mia Fey's death earlier in the series. After Phoenix reveals that Godot murdered Misty Fey, thereby earning his respect, Godot calls Phoenix by his proper name. In Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, Redd White calls Phoenix "Mr. Wrong" after it becomes clear that Phoenix suspects him of wiretapping Mia's office and murdering her. He continues to call him by the wrong name until he has Phoenix arrested on suspicion of the murder. And in Dual Destinies, Simon Blackquill has nicknames for just about everyone, but his favorite insult is referring to detective Bobby Fulbright as "Fool Bright". In Spirit of Justice, the rebel leader Dhurke at one point calls the Queen of Khura'in "Your Malevolence", to which she takes serious offense. |

Planet of the Apes (1968): Col. Taylor is given the nickname "Bright Eyes" by a well-meaning Dr. Zira, who doesn't yet realize that he can talk and is more than just a zoo exhibit. Once his wounded throat heals enough that he's able to speak again, Zira accepts that his name is Taylor - but her boss, Dr. Zaius, does not, and insists on calling him "Bright Eyes", as the idea of an intelligent human is heresy. The nickname becomes increasingly demeaning as a symbol of Taylor's dehumanization (for want of a better word) within ape society, and when Zaius finally (and in private) calls Taylor by his real name, Taylor is stunned and grateful. | |

In Retail, the original district manager, Jerry, would often refer to Marla as Darla. After Jerry got promoted to another part of the country the new D.M. revealed that Jerry knew Marla's real name, but pretended that he didn't. A year later Jerry returned to the strip and is now calling Marla by her correct name (probably because she knew the ruse now). He's still an asshole, though. | |

This was stock-in-trade for Chris Jericho, who regularly misnamed the people he was addressing ("Kirk Angel", "Mitchell Cole", "Bill Greenberg", "Hoot-'n-Toot Guerrera", "Chris Ben-Oyt", "Bore-Us Malenko", "Stinko Malenko").

Scott The Woz constantly refers to Toadette as Grover Cleveland in his discussion of Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash. This isn't out of dislike for Toadette though, and actually because the game tries to conceal her behind a silhouette while she's locked despite her very recognizable silhouette. In his Devil's Third video, he expresses frustration against Grundla Saha (which in his opinion is the most difficult boss in the game) by constantly calling him names such as "Granola Sandbag". |

Cube Zero: Jax keeps deliberately misnaming Dodd with names such as "Mr. Codd", "Mr. Clodd" and "Mr. Wad" to assert his authority and contempt for the 'button guy'. He only addressed him by his proper name when Dodd shows he's not entirely a coward and purposely sabotages his plans. | |

Yureka: The protagonists have gotten Lowe's name wrong so many times not even the readers can remember whether it's Lowe or Lawe now. He's corrected them enough (and helped with enough important plotlines) that it can't be attributed to their notoriously bad memories anymore, they're just being malicious. Which isn't exactly out of character. | |

At the end, after it has transpired that the Duke has been constantly calling Elsa a monster (thanks to her ice powers, which admittedly nearly hits him by accident earlier in the story) and even plans to kill her, the Duke and his henchmen are booted off from Arendelle, but not before another servant happily says that (paraphrased) "Arendelle will cut all ties with Weaseltown", prompting the Duke to flip out again. | |

Okabe in Steins;Gate loves to call Kurisu "Christina" (probably due to the fact that "Kurisu" is exactly how one would render the name "Chris" in Japanese, albeit in katakana instead of kanji) much to her annoyance. So much so that she's pleasantly surprised when he doesn't. He also does this occasionally with Daru, calling him a "suupaa hakaa" (usually rendered in subtitles as "Super Haker") instead of a "suupaa hakkaa" ("Super Hacker"), which Daru is always quick to correct. It's a very subtle difference, with only a glottal stop separating the (intentionally) incorrect pronunciation from the correct one. | |

Blitzo from Helluva Boss changed his name, making the "O" in his name silent, as a way to distance himself from his past. Whenever someone doesn't call him "Blitz", it's usually this trope: Blitzo's childhood friend, Fizzarolli, does this out of spite. Blitzo's ex-girlfriend, Verosika Mayday, does this purely to anger him because of their past — Blitzo having effectively sabotaged their relationship. Striker, on the other hand, refers to Blitzo using the nickname "Blitzy", given to him by his current lover-by-necessity, Prince Stolas of the Ars Goetia, as a way to emphasize something that Blitzo is dissatisfied with at his present point in life. | |

Jim Cornette has some rather colorful insults to people he doesn't like and tends to use them at all times to avoid promoting them. He calls Joey Ryan "The Dick Guy" because of his tendency to make penis jokes. He calls Joey Janela "Jelly Nutnella", claiming Joey is out of shape and looks like "the jelly on the edges of a biscuit". He calls Orange Cassidy "My Little Dog Pockets" (or just "Pockets") due to his tendency to wrestle with his hands in his pants pockets. He calls Kenny Omega "Kenny Olivier", claiming Kenny is not a wrestler, he's a terrible actor, or "Twinkle Toes McFingerbang" due to his habit of using the Finger Gun, or "Harpo Fingerfuck" because he makes goofy faces like Harpo Marx. He calls The Young Bucks the "Hardly Boys" due to considering them lamer versions of the Hardy Boyz, and calls Jon Moxley "Plumber" because Cornette thinks Mox looks more like a plumber than a wrestler. He calls his most hated enemy, Vince Russo, "Shitstain". A long list of these nicknames can be found on Cornette's page under Embarrassing Nickname. | |

UrinatingTree, being a sports commentator who loves to nickname and thrives on verbally shitting on those who keep screwing up, likes to make up his own: During the 2019 MLB season he took to calling New York Mets' closer Edwin Diaz "Edlose Diaz" due to an over 5 ERA and multiple blown saves (most notably blowing a six-run lead on September 3 against the Washington Nationals). After the Minnesota Twins were swept out of the playoffs in 2020 and set a record of 18 straight playoffs losses, Tree re-dubbed them the Tins (note the missing W). |

The Bible: The goddess Astarte is referred to as "Ashtoreth". The latter notably more resembles the word "bosheth" meaning abomination. It's also theorized that Baal is such a name as well. The Canaanite deity Baal Zevul, whose name means "Lord of the Sacred", was mockingly called Baal Zevuv, which means "Lord of the Flies" and is rendered in English as "Beelzebub". |

The eponymous heroine of Cinderella is actually named Ella in many renditions. "Cinderella" is a cruel nickname given by her step-family because she's often smudged in cinders due to the menial labour she's forced to undertake. | |

In El Goonish Shive, Diane does this to Justin, calling him Jason and brushing him off when he corrects her. This same mistake has occurred on the boards, amusingly enough, unintentionally. A later strip in which she actually thinks Justin is named Jason implies either Diane genuinely misremembered Justin's name and was just apathetic about correctly remembering it or her misnaming was in fact malicious but she has since forgotten that fact. |

There was an instance on True Capitalist Radio during Twitter shout outs where someone tweeted with the name "Adolf Ghostler". Ghost reacted as you'd expect, and since then it became a common and effective trolling tactic to intentionally refer to him as "Ghostler" (though the effectiveness started to wane over time, but never completely disappeared). | |

Strong Bad of Homestar Runner is quite fond of this. He calls his little brother Strong Sad by a host of unflattering nicknames such as "Dump-O", "Trundle Bed", and "Dairy Queen". ("I told you I don't wanna be called that anymore. I made a mistake!") Strong Bad also frequently mangles the names of senders in Strong Bad Email, like calling PlasticDiverGuy in the e-mail "underlings" "PastyDeadGuy" and "PrancyDirtGirl". A few SBEmail senders have turned the tables on Strong Bad; the email in "bottom 10" is addressed to "Weak Bad", and the email in "road trip" is addressed to "Fatty Bad". |

In Zero Punctuation, Yahtzee will frequently mock games by mangling their titles, like referring to Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch as Wrath of the White Guilt, or calling Zack & Wiki "Whack and Sticky". Special mention to Dishonored where, taking exception to the lack of a 'u' in the title (British spelling), he starts pronouncing it as Dish-on-a-red. By the end of the vid, this has morphed to Soap-on-a-rope, followed by Cat-on-a-Hot-Tin-Roof. He got creative with Red Dead Redemption too, going from "Brown Alive Redemption" to "Green Spleen Submarine," and finally "Purple Monkey Dishwasher." He lampshades this in his review of Medal of Honor: Warfighter, stating that he would continue the practice, but the title of the game in question is already so ridiculous that he bursts out laughing just by saying out loud. He refers to Devil's Third as "Devil's Turd" twice, lampshading it the second time because it's such an easy joke to make. |
