The Scottish Trope	comment	Certain words are just not spoken. Beyond Speak of the Devil, past the Brown Note, you never, ever say the true name of the Scottish Trope! Just saying its true name once is enough to break your fine china, cause Dramatic Thunder, make all the nearby dogs howl, cause milk to sour, and trigger a mild itching sensation. The title of a certain play by Shakespeare, for example. The Scottish Play, so-called because thespians believe that just saying the word "Macbeth" inside a theater in any other context than a performance or an in-character rehearsal is bad luck and will ruin the play or even curse the troupe/theatre. The explanations behind this vary, but if you dare say it inside a theatre, cast and crew will inevitably slap your mouth shut and give you days if not years of dirty looks if something bad does happen. Compare The Dreaded, These Are Things Man Was Not Meant to Know and The Disease That Shall Not Be Named. Often the subject of Censorship by Spelling. Works using this trope will often discuss The Power of Language.

As a result, the Talmudic writers went out of their way to avoid citing him, and when they have to bring him up, refer to him as Acher, "the Other One." The Geonim altered it slightly to Achor, which means "backwards."

The Scottish Trope / int_261c8d3f	comment	The Simpsons: The actual Scottish Trope was played with in "The Regina Monologues" when the family meets Sir Ian McKellen in England; any time anyone mentioned Macbeth, some horrible injury was visited upon McKellen. When the Simpsons wished him good luck before his performance, he said that was bad luck as well and a piece of the marquee promptly fell on him. Saying good luck is bad luck too, resulting in the expression "break a leg" being used instead. When Homer is on a game show and says he's happy he's past the lightning round, he gets shocked. When he decides to talk about an ice cream round, he gets hit by more lightning.

Sure enough, when Jim realizes Jeremiah is behind the events of the episode and says his name without realizing the consequences, Jeremiah and Ecco are alerted that their cover is blown through an accomplice who is wearing a wire, and they immediately break out of Arkham and kidnap Barbara.

Unlike the Yu Yu Hakusho example above, remaining silent for too long also results in one getting absorbed. Saying anything that sounds the same as the cursed word also counts, such as by saying two words that have the same phonemes across the end of the first word and start of the second. Ginkaku ends up having his own tool turned against him.

However, the animators took care not to use actual VÃ©vÃ©, only their design style. They most likely did this to avoid offending Vodou practitioners, but it's more fun to think that they didn't want to incur any bad juju. As for Facilier himself, his name is only said once in the movie (by himself no less) while everybody else just calls him "The Shadow Man".

The Scottish Trope / int_3b34143f	comment	Saying "Lord Moldybutt"note CRASH! in The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy makes stuff break. In consequence, people call him "he-who-should-never-ever-be-named". This is used to comedic effect such as when Billy kept saying Moldybuttnote CRASH! non-stop and everything around started breaking and falling apart. Even better, Moldybuttnote CRASH! himself isn't immune to the hazards of saying his own name. EVEN better, this episode aired before the character he is a parody of actually jinxed his own name. In "Secret Snake Club," the leader of the titular club repeatedly refers to his group's "a-gen-da", followed by a Scare Chord and lightning. One of the other club members gleefully tries it out himself by saying "agenda" and the same chord and lightning occur, causing the leader to admonish him as the leader is the only one who is allowed to say it (and in doing so passingly, a brief chord and strike again occur).

The Scottish Trope / int_3ec5b7a6	comment	Entire passages in House of Leaves concerning the Minotaur are struck out, perhaps to avoid a grisly fate. They were restored by Johnny Truant when he annotated the manuscript. But still other passages were burned off the page with some sort of acid. Given that Truant is an Unreliable Narrator, it's entirely possible he destroyed other parts of the book to keep them from seeing the light of day. He would have good reason.

The Scottish Trope / int_41b0198a	comment	The Dresden Files: Near the end of Summer Knight, Harry yells "I don't believe in faeries!" as a battle cry during the war between the faerie courts of Summer and Winter figuring, "What the hell." In Turn Coat, the skinwalker gets more powerful from feeding off fear, so mentioning it makes it more powerful. Harry being Harry, he compensates by renaming it "Shagnasty." Saying Mab's name three times apparently summons her, at least once Harry becomes the Winter Knight; in Changes, Harry accidentally says it twice and needs to be warned that doing so again would be a bad idea. In Cold Days, Harry learns that the Black Council may actually be an infectious Outsider called Nemesis. However, speaking its name risks drawings its attention, so even Mother Summer and Mother Winter (fairies several orders of magnitude beyond Harry's power, even with the Winter Mantle) call it "the Adversary" instead. The following book, Skin Game, mentions that saying any supernatural being's name sends a ping for their attention, kind of like sending them a text. Saying names once is generally okay because the being in question will usually dismiss it as a false alarm, as they generally don't have time to personally investigate every instance- especially if it's something whose name is widely known and said in normal contexts (like most mythical and folklore figures). To really get someone's attention, you should intentionally say their name three times. Therefore, he's warned against saying the name of Hades when planning to rob his vault. As it happens, it's a waste anyway â€” Hades, along with Mab and Marcone, set the whole thing up.

As a result, if you wish to talk about the extradimensional, anomalous forest, the various beings that dwell in it, the only path that can get you anywhere within or even the well from which one starts any journey in there, you must use descriptive phrases like those, and you can only use each once before you come up with the next.

The Scottish Trope / int_514326a5	comment	The writer of A Shoggoth on the Roof is referred to as "He Who [For Legal Reasons] Must Not Be Named". This is partly because the play borrows the music (if not the words) for its songs from Fiddler on the Roof and thus can't be performed, at least in the United States. Mostly, though, it's because he was driven insane by perverse dreams of non-euclidean geometry and whispers of names the human tongue could not bear, and now resides in an asylum, which also [For Legal Reasons] must not be named. Similarly, nonprofit performances are technically legal (or, at least in a slightly more legally grey area), yet tend to meet with mysterious accidents. Unfortunately, we can't be sure if that's due to sabotage, or more likely simply by the natural Brown Note effects of the play.

Making said wishes is not recommended. On the other hand, it worked out really well for Pun-Pun. Hastur works on similar principles, except instead of wishes, you get death. As something of a joke, dying player characters will state as their dying words, "Hastur Hastur Hastur". Invoked in The Binder of Shame, where El Disgusto's character is about to be killed by another PC for thieving, so he screams "You'll pay for this! You'll all pay for this! Hastur! Hastur! Hastur! Hastur! Hastur!" Also mentioned in The Canonical List of Famous Last Words: "What a useless scroll. It just says 'Hastur Hastur Hastur' over and over..." Demogorgon works on the same principle as Hastur. Put together, they're a pretty good way to get out of a boring session... Mentioning Orcus's name is not a good idea, either. In fact, most august malign outsiders and deities in D&D or D&D-esque games seem to have pretty good hearing. Speaking of Orcus (dammit! I've doomed us all!), there's also the Last Word that he used to know while an undead demon lord that could kill most anything that heard it, even gods. In Planescape, the city of Sigil was ruled by a mysterious (and very dangerous) entity known only as the Lady of Pain. Those who gain her attention, either by upsetting the status quo of the city or by worshipping her as a deity, quickly come to an unspeakably gruesome end. To be on the safe side, people don't give any specific name to "Her Dread Serenity". The Arthaus Ravenloft supplements refrain from naming Lord Soth, former darklord of Sithicus, by claiming that the domain's elven inhabitants fear that invoking their old ruler's name will call him back from wherever he vanished to. This is Enforced on a meta-level by the Open Gaming License, which allows third party authors to build on the mechanics and content of official third edition D&D, but (due to a quirk of the license) forbids them from saying the names of the sourcebooks and rulesets they're drawing from. Various workarounds have been used, including referring to "the third edition of the world's most popular roleplaying game", and using abbreviations for the books that can't be named without actually spelling out what the abbreviation stands for.

The Scottish Trope / int_7fc78282	comment	The Lord of the Rings: Aragorn spends a great deal of time in The Fellowship of the Ring telling the hobbits not to use Sauron's name because something vague and bad might happen. Furthermore, he tells Frodo not to speak of wraiths, and Merry and Pippin know that "the Ring is no laughing-matter." People of Gondor generally do not name either Sauron or Mordor, and Sauron himself forbids his servants from using his own name. This is because Sauron is what the Elves named him after he turned evil (Quenya for "The Abhorred"). His original name was Mairon (Quenya for "The Admirable"), but we don't know what he calls himself. His servants refer to him as "The Eye". The Mouth of Sauron, however, happily refers to his master as "Sauron the Great".

The Scottish Trope / int_84986bf9	comment	In RuneScape It's claimed that speaking the name of the evil God Zaros gives him power, though it's ambiguous as to whether Zaros is evil. He's mostly unmentioned by the NPCs in the game, and the majority of people that do talk about him in a bad way are followers of the other deities, so it makes sense they don't like him. Followers of the evil god Bandos usually call him The Big High War God, because they think he can hear it when you say his name. Goblins aren't even allowed to know his name unless they fully understand his commandments. In the Canon Discontinuity God Letters, Guthix states that gods can be summoned into a world by just by speaking their name.

The Scottish Trope / int_88cef91b	comment	Parodied in Sluggy Freelance in the "Torg Potter" parodies of Harry Potter. The main villain is known as "You-Probably-Don't-Know-Who", and Torg Potter is known as the Lastnameless One (parodying Torg's No Full Name Given status). Only some people can speak the name "Torg Potter", while others don't want to even hear it and possibly couldn't process it. This also prevents anyone from noticing from a long time that this Torg, the main character, isn't Torg Potter. It's also revealed a few parody stories in that You-Probably-Don't-Know-Who had purposefully cursed the Potters and unintentionally cursed himself so that their names were magically wiped from history, explaining all this weirdness.

Afterwards, all mention of it was removed from official Clan records, and all traces of its existence were removed from Clan Space. Bringing up the Clan in any way (even to ask if it ever existed) is a Berserk Button for other Clanners. If brought up at all, the Wolverines are referred to as the Not-named-Clan. The prohibition on mentioning the Clan's name goes so far that not only was the erstwhile Wolverine IIC named the Conjurer by the Clans, but even mentioning the animal, regardless of context, is considered vulgar by the Clans... and comparing a Clanner to said animal is a mortal insult.

The Scottish Trope / int_998cbda3	comment	Daredevil (2015): Throughout all of the Netflix shows, the alien invasion of Manhattan is only ever referred to as "The Incident". As said by the realtor showing Matt and Foggy their new office space in "Into the Ring", the generic name sounds so much better than "death and destruction raining from the sky nearly wiping Hell's Kitchen off the map". Saying Wilson Fisk's name is a betrayal punishable by death. His right hand / mouthpiece James Wesley only ever refers to him as "my employer" in meetings. It's such an engrained habit that he finds himself using it long after Fisk has made himself a public figure. In "Rabbit in a Snowstorm", John Healy, a hitman in Fisk's employ, gives up Fisk's name to Matt Murdock. Healy, who up until now has been a remorseless sociopath, immediately becomes visibly terrified and decides to kill himself by running his head through a nearby fence spike. In "In the Blood", when Vladimir tries to refer to Fisk by name, Wesley interrupts "We don't say his name," but an agitated Vladimir eventually just says Fisk's name anyways. Anatoly is more accepting of Fisk's anonymity, much to Vladimir's chagrin, and Vladimir speculates that Fisk doesn't like his name being said because it would betray that he's just an ordinary person. In "World on Fire", Piotr, one of Vladimir's lackeys, is arrested when the police come upon him fighting Matt. While in custody being questioned by Detectives Christian Blake and Carl Hoffman, he offers to give up anything he knows about Fisk if it will give him a reduced sentence. Unfortunately for Piotr, Blake and Hoffman work for Fisk, and they decide to kill him. After briefly debating which one will do the deed, Blake suddenly punches Hoffman, who screams "He's going for my gun!", and then draws his pistol on Piotr. In season 3, after Ray Nadeem finds out that his boss has been in Fisk's employ the whole time, he walks into a conference room full of terrified-looking FBI agents, and realizes that they too are working for Fisk.

Being angry about premature celebrations was a Running Gag with Toby. On the night their first supreme court justice was confirmed he refused to let the staff drink (or even decorate) until the 51st "yea" vote was recorded. Justified in that that it is a widely held superstition among Jews that a premature celebration is an invitation to malevolent forces to make sure that the reason for the celebration will not happen. There was also the time Ed & Larry tried to give Josh some news about a recession. Josh said that the R-word was forbidden in the White House, and they ended up calling it a "bagel".

The Scottish Trope / int_a5549ed0	comment	Due to strict reverence for the name of the Judeo-Christian God, the actual name itself has been lost to the mists of time. The name is written down in The Bible, but since the Hebrew writing doesn't indicate vowels, all we have are four consonants (often transliterated in English as YHWH). This is rendered by some English speakers as "Yahweh" (or sometimes "Jehovah", based on the Latin transliteration IHVH), but when read aloud in Hebrew it is rendered as "Adonai", meaning "Lord," or "Hashem," "the Name." Though the consequences of speaking God's true name are not stated in the Bible, "taking the Lord's name in vain" (i.e. frivolous use of the name and/or swearing of false oaths by it) is forbidden in the Ten Commandments, and some legends hold that Moses killed the Egyptian overseer by speaking the true name of God, suggesting that hearing the name of God has a similar effect as being exposed to (or perhaps may even bring about) His full, unveiled presence. Certain English-language translations maintain this convention by rendering instances of the Tetragrammation as "LORD" (in capitals), mimicking the use of "Adonai" in Hebrew.

The Scottish Trope / int_bcadd7cb	comment	Warhammer 40,000: It's probably not a good idea for anyone to say the names of the Chaos Gods, but for the Eldar in particular, whose souls are said to be as bright as those of a thousand humans and who have a strong divine link to Slaanesh, saying his/her name will at the least reveal their exact location to their ancient enemy, and will probably have results more along the line of Slaanesh itself tearing loose their souls and drinking them. In consequence, s/he is referred to by the Eldar as "She Who Thirsts" or "The Bright God". There are also two original Space Marine Legions who have been completely removed from all Imperial records, along with their Primarchs. Naturally, the reason they were removed is also kept secret, so they must have done something horrible, which is impressive, considering that Horus himself wasn't even removed. (Though there is a theory that they defected and then rejoined the Imperium, and for this service were "rewarded" with Unpersoning and allowed to join the Ultramarines.) The out-of-universe reason for this is Games Workshop wanted to leave a piece of lore blank so that players could fill it in themselves if they wanted to. Among daemons of Chaos and their worshipers, mentioning the God-Emperor of Mankind by name is a no-no. Daemons always call him "The Anathema" due to his utter opposition to them. While daemons avoid saying his name because of fear, worshipers refuse to do so out of mockery. They are far more likely to call him the "False Emperor" or the "Corpse-Emperor" than anything else. On the other side of the fourth wall, there's a very persistent superstition in the playerbase revolving around a particular type of ranged heavy weapon. Call it a rocket launcher (even if it isn't), or just point to the model holding it, but don't call it a missile launcher or it will. Also, it's a commonly shared joke that your must never mention the horribly mutated things of Chaos known as Chaos Spawn or you'll turn into—oh no ARGHBLGRBLGR...

Ever since the uproar over the one episode in which she was voiced and its Orwellian Retcon, they only refer to her using periphrastic terms like "a certain gray pegasus mare". This extends to official merchandise as well, in which her name is replaced with a cartoon drawing of a muffin. When the character returned to the show in Season 4 in a surprising secondary role as part of the Ponyville Equestria Games team, she was not named by any of the other characters and never interacted with anyone. And when she spoke again for the first time since "The Last Roundup" in "Slice of Life", she continued to not be named in the show until the credits where she is named "Muffins."

Saying names once is generally okay because the being in question will usually dismiss it as a false alarm, as they generally don't have time to personally investigate every instance- especially if it's something whose name is widely known and said in normal contexts (like most mythical and folklore figures). To really get someone's attention, you should intentionally say their name three times. Therefore, he's warned against saying the name of Hades when planning to rob his vault.

The Scottish Trope / int_ec9cdc92	comment	Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger had a Shout-Out to Shakespeare episode that subtly acknowledged this trope - someone's dug up an entire boxset of Shakespeare books translated for Japanese publication, and one cover is partially covered so only the hiragana for "mac" is still visible. How many Shakespeare plays start with that syllable?

The Scottish Trope / int_f043e432	comment	If you stand in front of a mirror in the dark and say "Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary!" she'll appear and scratch your face off. Who is "she", you ask? Mary Worth note others guesses by scholars include Mary I of England, Elizabeth Bathory. Mary Worth herself was all but certainly made up and changed to suit local variants like most folklore, with every alleged "true story" about her unable to agree even on what continent and century she was from.[, and no, not that one. Kingdom of Loathing has it that if you drink a hundred of these in front of a mirror, you'll die. Of alcohol poisoning. There is however the Guy Mad of Bees who does appear if his name is spoken before a mirror five times. Also referenced in xkcd.

The Scottish Trope / int_f8956ef3	comment	Literary genius Kaitou from YuYu Hakusho has the power of Taboo: within his Territory, he can set any word or sound as the Taboo, and if you say it, you lose your soul (for example, when the taboo word is "hot", Kuwabara loses his soul from merely saying "each other"). This applies to him, as well. Kurama defeats him by getting him to gradually make every letter of the alphabet as the Taboo, and then scaring him... but since Kaitou expected that and controlled himself, he made him laugh instead.

The Scottish Trope / int_f9addebf	comment	You Can't Do That on Television has water dumped on people who said "water" (or, during early seasons, "wet") or slime when they said "I don't know". This was played with several times: In the episode "Future World", Christine tried to avoid it by saying, "Insufficient data." Following the sliming, Lisa said that the slime dispenser was now computer-controlled. In "Revenge", Lisa was caught off guard when saying "water" did not trigger a drenching. Thinking the word no longer worked, she tried "H2O", "Wasser", and "Agua"... which finally brought down a bucket of water. Alasdair noted that she had not met Julio, the new stagehand. In an opposite sketch in the episode "Heroes", saying "I know" triggered the slime... to the amazement of several kids who said "I don't know" and avoided the slime. "The Not-So-Fair Show" had Christine get water dumped on her for saying "Eau de cologne". An amused Alasdair explained that "'eau' is the French word for 'water'"... and got drenched himself. In a similar vein, in the "Hobbies" episode, Christine said "Oh no you don't!" when Lisa tried to trick her into saying "water", only to get soaked. Lisa explained that the water dumper was French, and "'eau' is the French word for 'water'"... and promptly got soaked herself. Also from "The Not-So-Fair Show", the Unfairy Godmother slimed all of the kids except Christine for saying "We know". In the episode "Fashions & Fads", Christine, having subscribed to a fashion trend of wearing scuba gear, tried unsuccessfully to trigger a water drop by saying "water". Apparently, it only falls if the kids aren't expecting it. The episode "Enemies and Paranoia" referred to a Soviet version of the show where one gets covered in red slime whenever one said "free". The episode "Weather and Seasons" featured a heat wave where Christine and Lisa tried to invoke the water drop, only to learn that all the water had evaporated.
