* In ''VideoGame/{{Persona}}'', ''VideoGame/{{Persona 3}}'' and ''VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}'', your can name the main character whatever you please, and the chosen name appears in dialogue text where appropriate but is not included in the voice-acting, in much the same fashion as some of the BioWare examples already mentioned. P4 further gets around the issue by having Yosuke refer to the main character as 'Partner' every so often, while Teddie calls him 'Sensei' and Rise, Kanji and Naoto all call him 'Senpai'.
** ''VideoGame/{{Persona 2}}'' treats this in a different way; in ''Innocent Sin'', you can name the main character whatever you want, but it's not going to change the fact that his name is Tatsuya Suou in ''Eternal Punishment''.
** To compound matters, the JapaneseHonorifics (-Kun, -San, etc.) are preserved in the ''Persona'' games and the other characters commonly use them when addressing you in scenes with non-spoken dialogue. This can end up sounding really unnatural if you didn't choose a Japanese name.
