* Enforced in ''{{WebAnimation/Autodale}}''. The citizens of Autodale don't ''have'' first names. The only named citizens we see are Mr. Robinson, Mrs. Robinson, and Robinson Junior, with Junior becoming the new Mr. Robinson once the old one is branded [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness Ugly]]. Autodale treats its citizens like cogs in a machine, they're there only to work and raise replacements for themselves, so it makes sense that something personal like a first name isn't desired.
