In a group of characters with Theme Naming, sometimes one just doesn't fit the pattern. To the viewer, this is about as subtle as placing a big, blinking neon sign saying "HEY, LOOK! THIS GUY'S IMPORTANT!" above their head even before the character has a chance to do anything, and whether or not they really are important is a matter of debate. For some reason, this character tends to be named Bob, due to the inherent hilarity of the name "Bob". He may also be a Special Person, Normal Name. Sometimes identifies The Runt at the End. Can also apply to a lapse in Idiosyncratic Episode Naming. Compare Aerith and Bob, Tom the Dark Lord, Uniformity Exception. Often occurs with Famous, Famous, Fictional. |

Othello: Iago is the only one without an Italian name. His name is Spanish; this makes it a prophetic name, as in early seventeenth-century England, Spanish people were considered Always Chaotic Evil (thanks to the Anglo-Spanish rivalry at sea and the not-untraumatizing experience of the Spanish Armada). Also, 'Iago' is the Spanish version of Jacob, otherwise known as James. And what was one of Saint James's titles? The Moor Killer. The Hebrew meaning of Jacob is "the supplanter," which also fits Iago — or at least what he wants to be — pretty well. |

Sleepless Domain: The five girls of Team Alchemical are all named after their respective Elemental Powers, but they differ in how these play into their names. Sally, Undine, Sylvia and Gwen derive their names from the mythological Alchemic Elementals — the Salamander, Undine, Sylph, and Gnome. As there is no elemental associated with a fifth element, however, their fifth member is named Tessa Quinn, a play on the word "quintessence". | |

In Overflow Universe: Hanon Nijou is the only daughter of Wakaba whose name doesn't contain kanji for number, instead relying on the "non/none" part for a reference to number zero. Inori Ashikaga is the only daughter of Shun Hazama whose name isn't related to number/time/world, instead meaning "to pray". Justified since she was abandoned by Natsuhi when she was still a baby. Moeka Inou is the only daughter of Moegi to not be named after dance of music, instead named after her mother. |

Also King Candy's simpler name stands out amidst all the fancy names. It serves as a clue that he isn't really part of the game. | |

Grease: The main teen characters almost all have names that end with a long "e" sound, except for one boy and one girl each. The boys are Danny, Kenickie, Doody, Sonny... and Roger. The girls are Sandy, Betty (Rizzo), Frenchy, Marty... and Jan. Appropriately, Roger and Jan become a couple. Downplayed in the case of the girls, since Rizzo usually goes by her last name, and averted in the movie, where Roger is renamed Putzie. | |

RWBY: All characters are given names that are colour-based, or associated with colours. The Colourful Theme Naming was confirmed by the late Monty Oum long before the in-universe reason was revealed. Eighty years ago a terrible world war ended that had, among other things, tried to destroy artistic merit, individuality and diversity. To remember that, and make sure it never happened again, people all over Remnant have named themselves and their children after colour themes. The exceptions to this rule are Ozpin and Salem, two beings that have a very unique and mysterious past, both with each other and within Remnant itself. From the audience's perspective, Ozpin brings to mind The Wizard of Oz and Salem is a reference to the Salem witch trials, for a "good wizard/evil witch" dynamic. Neither reference exists in-universe. The episode titles of Volume 8 are all One Word Titles, except for the season finale, "The Final Word". The last line spoken audibly in the episode is Cinder declaring "And that's checkmate", implying that the hidden true title of the episode is "Checkmate". |

Shrek: Donkey's and Dragon's children are named Peanut, Cocoa, Bananas, Parfait, and Debbie. The last one doesn't directly fit the food-related Theme Naming but is likely a Shout-Out to the pastry brand "Lil' Debbie." There's also the Ogre family as of Shrek the Third: Fiona, Fergus, Farkle, Felicia, and Shrek. In "The Three Diablos", which is a bonus movie from Puss in Boots (2011), the eponymous bandit kittens are named Perla, Gonzalo, and Sir Timoteo Monterego the Third (who is the only one whose name includes a title). |

Granted, their "real" names are D37-9E-A53, D37-9E-J37, D37-9E-C47 and D37-9E-B52, which match a whole lot better, but among the used names, Rock Lobster sticks outnote "Ace", "Jet" and "Cat" are "A53", "J37" and "C47" translated from Leet Lingo, but "B52" translates to "BSZ" and so they went with a reference to The B-52s song "Rock Lobster" instead (he originally wanted to be called "Love Shack", another B52s song, but that was vetoed). | |

In Annie, the seven named orphans are Annie, Molly, Pepper (not a common real name, but a real name nonetheless), Duffy (again, a rare name, but a real one - it's Irish), Tessie, Kate... and July. The 1982 film's novelization explains that her birth name was probably Julie, but her uneducated parents misspelled it in their note when they left her on the orphanage steps as a baby. | |

Ralph Breaks the Internet: Four of the five main characters from the ultra violent (for a kid's movie) online racing game, Slaughter Race are named Shank, Pyro, Felony, and Butcher Boy, which is very fitting for the game's gritty and violent theme similar to Carmageddon or the Grand Theft Auto series. But then the fifth main character who is just as rough-and-tumble in her actions and apearance as the other Slaughter Race characters, is named Little Debbie (sometimes she's referred to as just Debbie for short which is just as odd). Like the snack brand, it's not as hard core as the others' names. | |

Homestuck: Homestuck has four kids, whose online handles can be shortened to TT (tentacleTherapist), TG (turntechGodhead), GG (gardenGnostic), and... EB (ectoBiologist), which belongs to John, our original protagonist. This discrepancy is actually a Chekhov's Gun; a group of internet/real trolls had forced him to change his handle from ghostyTrickster. Roxy Lalonde is the only human kid with more than one syllable in their first name. Nepeta's Sburb/Sgrub planet, Land of Little Cubes and Tea, is the only planet with an extra word in its name (this was done so that the initials would spell out "LOLCAT"). Similarly, most Sburb planets have "Land of" names where the first noun is one syllable, but aside from Nepeta's planet, Roxy's planet is called Land of Pyramids and Neon, where the first noun is three syllables. and when Caliborn completes the tasks required for a Dead Session, his planet's name is revealed to be "Land of Colours and Mayhem", again breaking the one-syllable rule for the first noun. Carapace names change all the time, but retain the same initials: WV has Wizardly Vassal, Wayward Vagabond, and Warweary Villein. Jack Noir instead becomes Spades Slick, Scurrilous Straggler, Sovereign Slayer, and Bec Noir. The Black Queen became Snowman as well. uranianUmbra (UU) and undyingUmbrage (uu) are the only chathandles that don't correspond to a pair of DNA proteins. Instead they represent uracil, which replaces thymine in RNA. The latter also is also the only handle that isn't in caps. Problem Sleuth has the four poker-playing elves: Ropo, Zobo, Foko, and Blod. |

Turning Red: In the core Lee family, there is Meilin "Mei/Mei-Mei", Ming, and Jin. Meilin's name is the only two-syllable name (though for the majority of the film, she goes by Mei), and Jin's name is the only one not to start with "M". Ming has two sisters, Ping and Chen. Chen's name is the only one of the three not to rhyme. Within the core friend group, Miriam's name is the only one with three syllables, as the rest (Meilin, Priya, Abby, and Tyler) all have two-syllable names. |

The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog: This is one of the clues that you uncover while you're trying to figure out who "killed" Sonic in the murder mystery game. Knuckles and Vector spent the hour they had to commit the "murder" trying to get the highscore in the arcade machine. Aside from their names on the scoreboard, the other names follow a Food Theme Naming - except for the score titled as "ULTIM". It turns out that theis is Shadow's signature on the scoreboard (standing for Ultimate Lifeform), which helps him establish an alibi after he's framed for the "murder". | |

Frozen: All of the main characters have four letters in their names, Anna, Elsa, Olaf, Hans, Sven, and the Duke (of Weselton), except Kristoff. Even Elsa calls her and Anna's parents the four-lettered "Mama" and "Papa" (their first names however, are Agnarr and Iduna). All of the main non-animal characters (Anna, Elsa, Olaf, Kristoff) have two-syllable names, except for Hans and the Duke. Maybe this difference foreshadows that those two are both antagonists. "Frozen Fever" has Olaf name the snogies with names like Flake, Drift, Slush, and... William. |

Happens in the musical Chicago during the "Cell Block Tango" number. Mona tells of her ex-boyfriend, Al Lipschitz, who would try to find himself and on the way "found" Ruth, Gladys, Rosemary and Irving. Also amongst the murderesses, there is Velma, Roxie, Mona, Liz, June, Annie, and Hunyak. Hunyak is the only one who is truly innocent and the only one we see get hanged. In this case, it's a bit justified - the character is Hungarian and the fact that she is foreign and unable to speak English is why she's in jail to begin with. | |

Kill Six Billion Demons: Angels and Devils both have naming conventions: Angels are named after sentences from the Gods' old law prefixed with their current incarnation, so for example "82 White Chain Returns From Emptiness To Defeat Evil". The odd name out amongst them is Metatron 1, YISUN's scribe, whose name is only a single word (and a real-life Bible reference at that), and has a suffix rather than a prefix as he's never died. The angel 2 Michael is also a break of this standard, but it is implied that "Michael" may not be his full name but is a shortened form of his full name. Devils, meanwhile, collect names and titles every time they form a contract, which can be used to summon and bind them. They constantly add or shed names to their collection in the hopes of earning a single name that fits them particularly well and gets directly associated with that devil's power again and again. This name becomes their "black name", which is so bound to them that they reach the apex of their power and can reach the highest rank in their Fantastic Caste System. An example of this is the blue devil "Ciocie Cioelle Estrella von Maximus the Third" ("Cio" to her friends, if she had any), whose many names (and having been stuck in a single contract where she hasn't built a lot of Villain Cred) means none of them are particularly powerful and neither is she. The odd name out amongst the devils is "Myself" (or "Himself", when adressed by others), which is held by the Eldritch Abomination known as the king of the Devils. As the name implies, it is his name, the only name he's ever been known by, and he gave it to himself without forming a contract, something that is impossible to other Devils. |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, Raphael. In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze, Mikey can't help but get a dig in: "All the good ones end in O!". In most of the Japanese and Italian localizations, they ALL do - Raphael is called "Raffaello" in those dubs. Like all the turtles, Raphael is named for the painter, who was born Raffaello Sanzio. He's just the only one whose Anglicized name still sounds exotic. Compare Leonard, Donald, and Michael. On another level, Donatello is named after the only artist among them who is not generally considered a contemporary of the others, having died in 1466, when Leonardo was a teenager, and Michelangelo and Raphael had yet to be born. Michelangelo, Leonardo, and Raphael are generally held to be the three most important artists of the High Renaissance, while Donatello was active during the Early Renaissance, decades earlier. |

The Black Hearts is the only solo story in the series The Makings of Team CRME that doesn't have the POV character's first name, Mercury Black, in the title. The others all contain the POV characters first name as a bit of theme naming (My Name Is Cinder, An Emerald Unearthed, Roman's Empire), but The Black Hearts only has the his last name which is shared with his parents, the other two main characters of the story, so you can't say it's his name specifically. The author originally titled the fic Mercury's Pain to keep up with the naming convention, but they didn't really like it that much. Thus, the title was changed. | |

The characters from the eponymous video game in Kid Radd are named after slightly mangled pieces of Eighties slang - Radd, Gnarl, and Bogey (from 'bogus', not the British for 'booger').

The Jordan family in the Green Lantern comics. There's Jessica Jordan, and her sons Jack Jordan and Jim Jordan... and Hal Jordan, who's considered the Black Sheep of the family. Notably, though, he's the Black Sheep because he defied his mother to become a pilot—following in the footsteps of his deceased father Martin Jordan, who also has an Odd Name Out. It serves as an early sign that Hal relates more to his father than to his mother (unlike his brothers, for whom the opposite is true). | |

The Incredibles: The two older children have names and powers that are symbolic of their time of life — hyperactive ten-year-old Dash, who has super speed, and shy fifteen-year-old Violet, who can turn invisible. Her name is also symbolic in that ultraviolet is invisible to human eyes, and because a "shrinking violet" is slang for a shy person. Then there's the baby, Jack-Jack, who doesn't appear to have any powers or a significant name. But "Jack-Jack" sounds like it may be a nickname rather than his real name. Subverted in the last act of the first film, we see that he has a veritable cornucopia of powers, thus making him a "Jack" of all Trades, which is explored in the sequel. | |

Doki Doki Literature Club! has Natsuki, Sayori, Yuri, and Monika—the last isn't Japanese in origin and doesn't end with the letter I. While the other three have a route in the game, Monika doesn't. Until she hijacks the game to give herself one. Additionally, it's revealed in Plus that her name actually stands in for Monitor Kernel Access. In some of the promotional material for Plus, the player character is given the name "Ive". This gives him an even odder name than Monika, as it's monosyllabic, has a different "I" sound compared to the girls, and resembles a pronoun contraction. All indicating he's not supposed to naturally exist in the game. |

Pokémon Reset Bloodlines justifies it in a sidestory for Misty. Unlike her sisters, Daisy, Violet and Lily who were named after flowers, she got her name because her parents saw her as "nothing but a little mist", reflecting her status as a non-wanted child and The Unfavorite. | |

In the Homestar Runner Show Within a Show Cheat Commandos, everybody has a cool commando name, for instance, Crackotage, Gunhaver, Fightgar, and Silent Rip... and then there's Firebert and Reynold. (Reynold later undergoes a Face–Heel Turn and renames himself "Scrawnjob". Also, there's Mr. Bland, Senor, and... The Robot (the only one who doesn't have a variation of "Mister" in his name, in case you didn't notice). The members of the death metal band Taranchula are Dave Bjornborg, Dave Olafstenston, and Schenkel McDoo. Highlighted in their music video, where the two Daves look like typical Scandinavian death metal rockers while Schenkel McDoo has a Porn Stache and a pink polo shirt. Then there's also the quote above, mentioning characters named Mandy, Brandy, Andy, and Scurge. |

When they started out, three of the Fantastic Four gave themselves highfaluting polysyllabic, two-word codenames: Mister Fantastic, the Invisible Girl (later the Invisible Woman) and the Human Torch. Only Ben Grimm got landed with the prosaic and monosyllabic appellation, the Thing. On the other hand, Reed Richards as the leader is the only one with a codename that is not used with a definite article, and has the only codename that contains an honorific. | |

At the start of Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors, the players in the Nonary Game decide to start referring to themselves by code names in case mastermind Zero is listening in on them and gathering personal information to use against them. They decide to base their code names off their bracelet numbers (i.e. an Ace in a deck of cards, Snake eyes, the 8 petals of a Lotus flower,) but some exceptions are Seven (who doesn't bother with a referential code name and just goes by the number directly), Junpei (who doesn't get a code name, because after June blabbed about his real name nobody else saw any point in it), the Ninth Man (who doesn't go along with the whole code name thing, and soon after breaks off from the group and gets himself killed), and Clover (who secretly used her real name as her code name). | |

Object Connects had an Edible Theme Naming with their teams which follows the naming convention of "The [Adjective ending with "-y"] [Fruit]" such as "The Sleepy Strawberries" and "The Smarty Blueberries". The Reversal Tomatoes sticks out like a sore thumb as not only does it not have a "-y" ending adjective but tomatoes aren't a conventional fruit since most associate it with vegetables. | |
