While it may be wrong to judge a book by its cover, it's something that happens. You see a person, you expect certain things. This extends even to that person’s voice. If you see a muscular man, you expect a deep macho voice. The Vamp will have a sexy, sultry voice. A child's voice is high-pitched. And so on. This trope is about when those expectations don't match up; e.g., when the muscular man has the sultry voice, The Vamp has a childish voice, and the child has a deep voice. This trope is generally played for comedy since the idea of a squeaky voice from a big person or a deep voice from a small person is generally seen as absurd. For better or for worse, this can sometimes come about by chance, depending on how casting in a voiced work goes. Of course, after a bit, you'll have trouble hearing that character with any other kind of voice except their own. Cute, but Cacophonic is a subtrope of this, specifically referring to when "an extremely cute and/or tiny animal turns out to have a surprisingly loud cry." Instant Soprano, another subtrope, occurs when this trope arises in response to a Groin Attack. This trope also could be the result of an Inopportune Voice Cracking. Often overlaps with Most Writers Are Adults (when young children in animation are depicted with somewhat deep, adult-like voices), Professional Voice Dissonance (where the voice a person uses for their job sounds very different to how they talk normally) and Singing Voice Dissonance (where a person's singing voice is noticeably different than their speaking voice). Not to be confused with Larynx Dissonance, which involves an actor attempting to impersonate their opposite gender, or Lyrical Dissonance, which involves song lyrics. If a character who didn't initially have this suddenly does, it can lead to Voice Change Surprise. |

Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony: Ryoma Hoshi is pretty much the polar opposite of Danganronpa 3's Daisaku Bandai.

Yet another wrestling example: Shawn Michaels, who was slightly small for a wrestler and adopted a somewhat effeminate ring persona for his "Sexy Boy" character, had a deep, gravelly voice like an Old West mountain man (the result of his childhood in Arizona and Texas). In the later years of his career, he grew a beard and began dressing and acting more like how he actually sounded. | |

Applies to several characters in the Honor Harrington series. The titular character is a 6'5" Heavy Worlder Lady of War, who has a soprano voice. Thandi Palane is a genetically modified Amazonian Beauty who can literally punch a guy's face in, and a mezzo-soprano (one step down from soprano). The Memetic Badass (both in-verse and out) Victor Catchat is a tenor (highest male voice within the modal register). | |

One more for the road, former WWE Diva Chyna was an Amazon any way you look at it. 5'10", very muscular and carried enough of a presence to hold her own against male wrestlers, her rather high, soft, nasal voice is fairly surprising (she also had a slight lisp, making her voice about as surprising as Mike Tyson's.) | |

Sting zig-zags this. Steve Borden, the man behind the paint, sounds the way you'd expect him to, as does the early blond Surfer-dude Sting. However, once he started dressing up in his trademark black and white Crow-inspired look, his medium-pitched voice and California accent clashed with his ghostly appearance (he actually stopped talking for a while perhaps due to this). | |

The Land Mine: Derek felt this way about the headmaster of the school in Stow-In-The-Wold, where his mother was spending her time after the roof of their house is blown off. The headmaster had a very short, egg-shaped body, from which Derek expected a rather high-pitched voice to come. The headmaster speaks in a very deep voice. | |

RWBY: Cardin Winchester of team CRDL is a big, bulky guynote going by Jaune's official height of 6'1", Cardin's easily around 6'4" or taller, leading one to expect him having a deep, intimidating voice. In actuality, however, Cardin has a fairly very high-pitched, almost nasally-sounding voice. | |

Played with in The Builders. The Captain is a grizzled, stoic military commander who has a unnervingly scarred face and a deserved terrible reputation. However, he has a squeaky voice described as a falsetto. On the other hand, every character in the work is an Intellectual Animal and the Captain is a mouse — and so his voice is actually quite fitting for his species (he sounds like Micky Mouse in the audiobook); it's just that it is greatly at odds with his personality. | |

Harry Potter: Remarkably, Voldemort, the Big Bad, is a notable aversion of Evil Sounds Deep, as he is described as having a quite high-pitched voice. Harry has this reaction the first time he hears Dolores Umbridge speak in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. She speaks with a high, girlish voice, whereas due to her froglike face, Harry had expected a croak. In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Harry is surprised to hear Goyle's low voice and Crabb's soft one. |

Higurashi: When They Cry: Rika is at youngest 9 and at oldest 12 but can put on an incredibly adult voice when she wants to. This is apparently not just for the audiences, as it's implied (and even stated in one of Keiichi's character songs) the other characters hear it but never say anything. Hanyuu can pull off a menacing adult woman's voice despite being the same age as Rika. She can even pull off an inhuman voice, as she is a Physical God. Played With as Hanyuu is a Cute Ghost Girl who died as an adult. Her "adult" voice is simply the voice she had at the time at her death while her current voice is, presumably, the voice she had as a child. |

DD from Cream Heroes is a large, fluffy forest cat who towers over all the others, is pretty much the leader and given a deep Hulk voiceover by Claire. His meow is a squeak. Momo, at least in comparison to the deep, gruff voice Claire gives him. His meow is incredibly high pitched and sad sounding despite his boisterous personality. |

Ultra Fast Pony has a lot of this. Cross-Dressing Voices abound, because one guy does all the voices for the show, while the cast is primarily female.

Unlike the other gruesome-looking spirits in Spirit Hunter: NG, whose voices are modulated to sound unnaturally low or high, the Screaming Author's voice sounds exactly like a timid young girl. Which is what she was in life, until she was mutilated into the murderous, bird-like horror that she is now. | |

This is a common occurrence for actors doing Big Finish Doctor Who. As Big Finish has gone the extra mile and contracted nearly every living Doctor Who actor to reprise their roles from the classic series, naturally there is going to be aging issues with actors who played their roles forty, fifty, and now even sixty years ago. Chief among these is Peter Davison, who while trying to sound a bit more youthful still has a gruffness to his voice as the Fifth Doctor that wasn't present in his thirty-year-old self in 1982, and Colin Baker, who likewise has started unavoidably showing his age in his voice in recent dramas. At the same time, they are still recognizably those characters and perform admirably. This even informed a brief story arc for the Fifth Doctor's team, starting in "Cobwebs", where Nyssa had returned from her Long Bus Trip after the TV episode "Terminus", rejoining Five, Tegan and Turlough after fifty years from her perspective (only a week or so from theirs). Since Trakenites age slower than humans, it allowed Nyssa to be at the same biological age that Sarah Sutton currently was (somewhere in her late 40s-early 50s) so that Sutton could use her natural speaking voice and give the pitching up to sound like her 20-something self a hiatus. Averted, however, with Tom Baker, whose Fourth Doctor sounds almost exactly like it did when he left the show at "Logopolis", even though he's now in his 90s. |

The First Law: Bremer dan Gorst is a bull of a man and a Lightning Bruiser to boot, but he's got the piping voice of a child, to his eternal shame. Stranger-Come-Knocking is a towering giant of a barbarian warlord who speaks in a surprisingly soft voice. Despite being a savage and ruthless cannibal barbarian armored in human bones, Stand-i'-the-Barrows sounds completely mundane when he speaks. |

Another wrestling example (albeit not as dramatic) was the strange incongruence of the voices of Chris Benoit and Edge (who were tag-team champions together on two occasions) to their respective physical appearances. Benoit was a short but very muscular man who often sported a "hobo beard", but his voice was relatively high-pitched. Edge was tall, rather lanky, and had perfectly styled long blond hair, but his voice was often a low growl and noticeably more masculine than Benoit's. (And just to add to the irony, both men were Canadian.) | |

Terry Funk was one of the toughest SOBs in the wrestling industry (having wrestled for 50-plus years) and he certainly looked the part. However, Funk happened to have a rather soft and kindly voice, which could be quite jarring to hear coming out of a man who fought in more hardcore matches than you can shake a stick at. | |

Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony: Ryoma Hoshi is pretty much the polar opposite of Danganronpa 3's Daisaku Bandai.

Played with in the Shadow of Israphel machinima series, since all but one of the voices are done by one person putting on accents (even within the plot, and without the actual characters knowing they're being voiced), leaving several characters with either incredibly out of place voices or voices that change with every appearance. | |

Brock Lesnar has a famously large and imposing figure with the strength to boot, but his voice is infamously a bit higher than what one would expect. When he gets angry, his furious "screams" have a tendency to come off less like badass roars and more high-pitched screeches coming from a medium-sized bird. It's probably a good reason why he gets Paul Heyman to do the talking for him in promos. | |

If the Emperor Had a Text-to-Speech Device: In one of the episodes, fallen angel Cypher (who looks like this, by the way) gets all excited and starts talking in high-pitched, squeaky and nigh-unintelligible voice. The seven-feet-tall Super-Soldier Cato Sicarius has a similar problem, except very much constant. And finally Lucius the Eternal, a horrendously mutated and similarly huge Chaos Space Marine, beats them both and sounds like a psychopathic Mickey Mouse, which in this case makes him creepier. |

Stephanie McMahon is a rather interesting case. Starting around mid-2002, her voice on Raw/SmackDown immediately changed from a high pitched screamy voice to a much deeper and more womanly voice. This was actually her natural voice from the beginning (ie. her screamy/high-pitched voice from 1999-2002 was basically manufactured for her stage persona), but it's definitely an interesting contrast. This interview from 2000 and this interview from 2012 show that, other than talking in a considerably lower tone now, her voice has changed a lot less over the last twelve years than one would think based on her Raw/Smackdown Vocal Evolution (it's more her way of speaking that's changed over the years). |

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series: Justified in that, unless a guest voice actor is involved, every character in the series is voiced by its creator LittleKuriboh and that it's intended to be Played for Laughs. In episode 22, one of Duke's fangirls (the Gonk one) has a very deep voice. Mai Valentine and Serenity both have male voices (Mai sounds sort of like a drag queen while Serenity sounds almost like Jar-Jar Binks, minus the Caribbean accent). As of recently, Mai has officially been given a woman's voice. Which seems to be this trope In-Universe. Yami and Odion retain their rather deep voices as babies. Dragon Ball Z Abridged Cell lampshades on how Yami's voice is ridiculously deep for a 14-year old kid. |

In Maledicte, Maledicte is a slight, pretty young man with an incredibly harsh, rasping voice. Justified in that he purposefully took poison to damage his voice. | |

Natalya Neidhart has a very deep voice for a female of fairly average height. Although considering she's part of the Hart family and how Badass she is it might actually work. | |

The radio soap actors in Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter are described as quite unattractive with very wonderful voices. The author even says explicitly that many men would get Blue with Shock if they realized that the very sweet, silky voice of the soap heroines comes from an old, fat, badly dressed and worse groomed lady. The titular scriptwriter is also a radio actor: he is short and thin, but with a powerful voice and such a big charisma he gets a lot of admirers even with his poor looks, at least until the burnout begins to hit him hard... | |

Homestar Runner: In the Strong Bad Email "radio", Strong Bad demonstrates that radio personalities usually look nothing like how they sound by making his mopey, soft-spoken younger brother Strong Sad talk like an obnoxious disc jockey. In the sbemail "alternate universe," da Huuuuuudge (a massive Blob Monster version of Strong Bad that he came up with in the earlier sbemail "animal") joins the other Strong Bads in singing their number-one jam. It has a remarkably high-pitched, quavering voice. |

In some Touhou fan works, like certain editions of the Touhou M-1 Grand Prix or "The Cruel Sisters and the Suffering Maid" by Innocent Key, Remilia, who is physically a child, is given a voice more befitting of a young woman in her late teens to early twenties. | |

Stephanie Miller of The Stephanie Miller Show, a morning political and comedy show, is a skinny, white, middle-aged, brunette woman. Many a listener, however, call in and express surprise after seeing pictures of her on the show's website that she is not a blonde and/or fat. One caller even thought she was black. | |

1632: Andrea Abati, also known as Il Prosperino, is a former Papal singer, and is famous for being an extravagant dresser, intrepid womanizer, skilled duelist, Attention Whore and all-round scandal-magnet. Abati is also a castrato note Exactly what it sounds like; in the 17th century boys with particularly beautiful singing voices were commonly castrated to prevent their voices from breaking and his voice is described as a "soprano with a hauntingly beautiful timbre". To give you some idea of his vocal quality, when Franz Sylvester composes his Opera King Arthur, he writes the part of Nimue specifically for Abati. Even people who know about his condition are usually shocked by the contrast between his appearance and his voice. | |

Smokefield from Warrior Cats RPG is a sadistic, possibly psychopathic Maine Coon/Ragdoll cross who's an unrepentant rapist and part of quite possibly the worst group in the game. His voice is very soft. This is Truth in Television, as Maine Coons are a very soft-voiced breed of cat. | |
