A monogram is a symbol made from two or more letters — usually a person's initials. Sometimes a character's personality or destiny is indicated by his or her full name, whether it be a Steven Ulysses Perhero or a Louis Cypher. Sometimes, however, the character's full name seems perfectly ordinary, until you spot his or her monogram on a handkerchief or pen and find a funny "coincidence". This trope is about when a character's initials bear some significance to the story. The most common Significant Monogram, of course, is "JC," most often seen on the Sacrificial Lamb, Messianic Archetype, or The Hero. Those initials can be found everywhere from Jesse Custer in Preacher to Jiminy Cricket in Pinocchio to John Connor in The Terminator and its sequels to JC Denton to Julius Caesar.note How's that for a Temporal Paradox? When those specific initials are used unintentionally and in a completely discordant manner with the character's role in the story, they can often lead to an almost literal Everyone Is Jesus in Purgatory situation. However, sometimes initials may be used as a Shout-Out to another, pre-existing fictional character. It's almost certainly not a coincidence that so many fictional super-spies in the late 20th and early 21st century have had the initials "JB" (Jason Bourne, Jack Bauer, Jack Bristow, et al.) And sometimes the similarities may be subliminal or completely unintentional, as for instance with Gene Roddenberry's dashing, womanizing, handsome young hero who first debuted in 1966. Although ostensibly named after Capt. James Cook, his "JTK" monogram would be merely a stroke and a half away from the commonly-used monogram for a certain dashing, womanizing, handsome young president who had been martyred, in the eyes of many Americans, merely three years previously. Er... probably. In many cases, initials may be used to indicate an Author Avatar. Compare to Significant Anagram, Meaningful Name, and Fun with Acronyms. Distinguished from Theme Initials in that Theme Initials are used for multiple characters in a story or universe and may have no significance outside of their recurrence, whereas Significant Monograms may be used for only one character in a story but refer to someone or something outside of that story. However, when Significant Monograms are used for multiple characters in a universe or work of fiction, it may easily become a case of Theme Initials. It can also become an unfortunate name, particularly if other characters remark upon such initials as "BS," "ASS" or "FU." Often in comedies, an Embarrassing First Name or Embarrassing Middle Name may be employed to complete the monogram. |

House: Gregory House shares a lot with Sherlock Holmes. House's 'sidekick' James Wilson has the same monogram as Holmes' Dr. John Watson, while House himself shares his second initial with Holmes (as well as being a pun on the name). Not to mention both are addicted to opiates and House's apartment address is even 221B on Baker Street. | |

Miraculous Ladybug: Evillustrator: The Romantic Akuma gives Lila Rossi the middle names Imani and Angelica, making her full initials LIAR. It's incredibly accurate. By the same author, Heart Thief and Riot and Empath (among other stories) identify Marc's horrible ex-boyfriend as Lucien Rebois. Given Lucien's skill at lies and manipulation, it's probably not a coincidence that he shares his initials with Lila Rossi. |

A ton of Harry Potter fics assign Sirius Black the middle name "Orion", making his initials SOB, which is also commonly used as an initialism for "son of a bitch". Since that happens to be literally true (his mother isn't very nice), provides a bit of a dog reference, and the astrological namesake is consistent with his family's Theme Naming, it's caught on widely. | |

Homestuck: During an intermission, Nanna Egbert reveals that her Evil Matriarch, Betty Crocker, wasn't human. A while later, we've almost forgotten about it - until Feferi's ancestress shows up, in a warship titled Battleship Condescension. The Exiles. Their names change, but their initials remain the same, forcing their past selves to be named with an additional question mark (with the semi-exception of Snowman and Jack Noir). The post-Scratch kids retain the chumhandles of GG, GT, TG and TT. Jake English also retains the monogram of John Egbert, and RL and DS also stay this way (even though the names themselves weren't revealed yet), and Jade Harley (JH) is, predictably enough, replaced with JC. Vriska Serket’s monogram is “VS� - fitting for the “pathologically competitive�. |

In Funky Winkerbean, one character received a job offer from Diversity University Ironton, the name of which was repeatedly given in its full twelve-syllable form rather than by its initials which also allude to drunk driving. The character turned down the job offer, thus avoiding the need for continued use of the awkward name. | |

John Crichton from Farscape certainly has some messianic qualities: a non-corporeal god-like creature who took the form of his father gave him some pretty powerful powers; he is a an outcast in a strange land who likes to contrast his morality with others; also he has a perchance for self-sacrifice. | |

Critical Role: A strangely inverted example. According to Molly, the circus found him nearly catatonic and completely amnesiac after he'd crawled his way out of his own grave, and for the first few weeks he would only mutter the word "empty" to himself over and over again. Gustav misheard him and, thinking he was trying to tell them his name, started calling him "M.T." When the Crownsguard demanded everyone's papers, Gustav expanded the monogram into "Mollymauk Tealeaf" while forging Molly's documents, and Molly decided to just keep the name. | |

Babylon 5's Jeffrey Sinclair and John Sheridan both share their initials with series creator J. Michael Straczynski. He did it again with John Simon, protagonist/narrator of his comic book series Rising Stars. The initials of the lead couple (JS and D) also match the initials of JMS and his wife at the time, Kathryn Drennan. Straczynski once said, "I don't do cameos, my initials do." |
