When you take Only One Name to the extreme, this is the result. Most often a Code Name. For some reason letters from the second half of the alphabet are much more likely to be chosen. Even people who change their names to something starting with A to get to the top of an alphabetical list seem to never use just A. A fair number of older novels (from, say, the 19th and early 20th centuries) use this as a form of "discretion shot". (See Spell My Name with a Blank.) For example, a lot of Sherlock Holmes stories refer to "Mr. B——" as a way to imply that this is a real person and the story really happened in the real world, but that due to the potentially embarrassing nature of the events, Watson is too much of a gentleman to reveal Mr. B's true identity. Compare You Are Number 6, when the name is a number. Contrast Overly Long Name. For works titled this way, see One-Letter Title. |

Only when their search hits a dead end does he think to mention that "X" is spelled "Ecks". Sure enough, his mother's name is Sheila Ecks. | |

The protagonist of I Am J is a teenage trans boy whose name is "J". Early in the book, a flashback shows that in sixth grade he gets into a confrontation with a teacher when she kept on calling him "Jenifer", though his soon-to-be friend Melissa stepped in and made an excuse that he couldn't be called "Jenifer" because of an incident in his family that caused the name to bring up negative memories. J tells Blue that his name is short for "Jason", but in the end he decides that his chosen name is literally just "J". | |

E. B. Du Havel. He didn't understand how names work when he needed to provide one for the record, so W. E. B. doesn't actually stand for anything. |

In Naruto, a lot of people from the Village Hidden in the Clouds: The Raikage is "A", his brother is "B" (though everyone called him "Killer Bee"), he has an aide named "C" and they sent a shinobi after Sasuke, who was called "J", and an incidental character was named "F". In this case, these are code-names/ranks (that may have fully replaced the characters' original names which are never revealed). For example, B is given the name after being chosen as the combat partner for A when he was promoted to head of the village and its armed forces (implying the Raikage is always called "A" and paired with an assistant/bodyguard called "B"). | |

V for Vendetta: "Voilà ! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition! The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honour to meet you and you may call me V." | |

Lord Zedd from Power Rangers. His Mooks had this letter on their breastplates. Power Rangers S.P.D. had a character named Z, short for Elizabeth. Power Rangers RPM has a character known only as Dr. K, later explained as being because she grew up in a secret government think-tank codenamed "Alphabet Soup". Presumably Dr. A through Dr. J had non-Ranger based areas of expertise. |

In The Twenty One Balloons by William Pène du Bois, the island of Krakatoa is settled by twenty families, who take on the letters A through T as names (e.g., the man who founded the island is only known as Mr. M, his wife is Mrs. M, and their children are M-1 and M-2). When the protagonist is stranded there, he asks if they would like to start referring to him as Mr. U; they decline, as it would lead to pronoun confusion. No mention is made of how they manage to non-confusingly talk about the I family, though at least I is only a pronoun in the subjective case. | |

The James Bond films famously have several of these. Bond's boss M, based on the Real Life head of MI6, who goes by the codename "C". It's mentioned in Casino Royale (2006) that M is not just a random letter (whether it references a name — the novels have the original Miles Messervy and Barbara Mawdsley, a prop in Skyfall has the name Olivia Mansfield — is unclear): Gadgeteer Q ("Q" being short for "Quartermaster"/"Quartermaster's department", referencing his job to supply agents). Q's assistant, dubbed as R ("reserve"), before he gets promoted to Q. Bond lampshades this in The World Is Not Enough, but with a different line of thought: Spectre has Max Denbigh, who Bond nicknames "C" for malicious reasons, as he wants to shut down MI6, and it catches on in the agency. And given he's working for the bad guys, it culminates in a discussion of going by one letter: |

Xenoblade Chronicles: One of the playable characters of Xenoblade Chronicles X is named L. Technically, his full name is L'cirufe, but he prefers to go by just the first part. In Xenoblade Chronicles 3 the Consuls all only go by a single letter, span most of the alphabet and taken from the first letter of their given name when they were originally human. The Future Redeemed DLC campaign introduces A: a mysterious ally of the main protagonist Matthew. They are actually a half of Alvis from the first game, who turned genocidal following the ends of both 1 and 2 and became Alpha. |

In Pokémon Adventures, the protagonists of each arc are named after their generation's games. So the protagonists for the XY arc are named... X and Y. Granted, when romanized their names become Ekkusu and Wai, but it still doesn't make their names any less weird. Averted with Y in the Viz version, as her actual name is Yvonne but has 'Y' as her nickname, and in another translation "X" is short for "Xavier". | |

In Pathfinder, there's a Monk archetype which - at high levels - allows the monk to heal and resurrect all their allies in return for being wiped from existence to the extent that their name can't be written down. It has been proposed that one could abuse the one letter name trope to use 26 monks to destroy the alphabet. | |

Q from Star Trek. Since it's used for both the character and the species to which he belongs, things can get confusing when other Qs show up. (Though it's less so in print: the second Q from "Deja Q" is rendered as Q2, and Q's son is q.) An Expanded Universe trilogy adds another god-like being named 0. That's right, a One Digit Name. There's also "*" (that energy cloud from TOS causing humans and Klingons to fight), a One Asterisk Name. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh! GX: In the English dub, Aster Phoenix's adoptive father is named The D. In the Japanese version, he was called DD, which is a two-letter name, but comes close. In the Japanese version, the Deck Destruction pro-duelist is named X. In the English dub, he was called Howard X. Miller. |

Pokémon: In Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl, a villain known as Pokemon Hunter J and a one-shot filler character known as O were introduced. In Pokémon Adventures, the protagonists of each arc are named after their generation's games. So the protagonists for the XY arc are named... X and Y. Granted, when romanized their names become Ekkusu and Wai, but it still doesn't make their names any less weird. Averted with Y in the Viz version, as her actual name is Yvonne but has 'Y' as her nickname, and in another translation "X" is short for "Xavier". |

O is the name of a minor NPC in Planescape: Torment. He's not just any old O, but part of the ‘divine alphabet’. He openly voices his disdain for mortals and advices them to stop acting like mindless insects and see the bigger picture. If you ask him how, he'll open his mouth in an o-shape, through which you see the endlessness of the universe (permanent +1 Wisdom). He also has a cameo in Torment: Tides of Numenera. | |

Doctor Who has a villain named Omega. In "The Happiness Patrol", the natives of Terra Alpha all have one-letter surnames denoting social rank. Offworlders have their surname replaced by 'Sigma'. The Doctor himself has been known to sign his name as simply "?". In "Spyfall", there is the chief of MI6, known as "C" (as in real life), along with another (former) agent known as "O." O is actually the Doctor's archnemesis, the Master, who chose that name specifically for the Oh, Crap! reaction as the Doctor realizes who he really is. |

Men in Black agents, including Agents J, K, L, and Zednote (i.e., "Z" in any English-speaking country except the U.S., and French-speaking countries as well), along with almost everyone else with the organization. The third movie adds an "AA", but it's only in a Bad Future anyway. Interestingly, the names appear to be based on the first letter of the first name (James, Kevin, Laura, Michael). This begs the question — are there only 26 agents in the MIB? What happens when two agents have their first names start on the same letter? | |

Many of the main characters from the Mega Man X series: The main character, X. Technically a shortening of Mega Man X, but no one ever calls him that in series. Technically, Zero is a one-number name (0). Sigma (∑) is also one letter name, but with a Greek letter. His name is actually written with the Greek letter, and is the symbol on the health bars of anyone associated with his organization in later games. And Omega (Ω.) R from Mega Man X: Command Mission. And Epsilon (E), the game's villain. The Biometals in Mega Man ZX are all named "Model [Single Letter]." The letters are derived from the names of the guardian the biometal is based on. So Model P for the ninja Phantom and Model X for... well... X. |

In Valvrave the Liberator, soldiers trained at the Karlstein Institute have their real names taken, and they are replaced by combining this with You Are Number 6. So we have L-Elf (Elf meaning 11), and several others. | |

Coach Z, from Homestar Runner. Didn't start out this way, as his name was spelled "Coach Zee" in the original book of Where My Hat Is At?, presumably to prevent his name from being pronounced "Coach Zed". In answering an email from Canada, Strong Bad reasons that Coach Z would be called "Coach Zed" there and decides to call him that in the future (Although he doesn't). | |

The main character from FreezeME is just called R, and her best friend is a dog named M. No real reason for it is given In-Universe—probably they just sound cool. | |

Elzandra Ayla Umbria, AKA Alexandra Underwood of A Magical Roommate, prefers to be addressed as X. Nobody's sure why. Maybe it has to do with the fact that she rarely says a word with more than three syllables in it, and Alexandra has four. | |

At one point during Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, you run into a thin-blood named E, who asks you to find out about thin-bloods and rescue his girlfriend and sire, Lily. The Malkavian run lampshades this at one point, referring to him in conversation with Lily as "the letter that comes before F and G". | |
