* Cody is a name of English origin that comes from an Irish/Gaelic surname meaning "Helpful." Rather fitting for a guy who helped his crush Gwen hook up with Trent back during TDI despite the feelings he had for her. Helpful, indeed.

* Bridgette's name means "exalted" or "noble," which befits her strong moral conscience throughout the franchise.
!!!Screaming Gophers
* "Gwen" means "white" or "pale," and she's a goth girl with noticeably paler skin than most other characters.
* [[Characters/TotalDramaHeather Heather]] is most likely named after ''{{Film/Heathers}},'' a film about social cliques in high school that features a trio of [[GirlPosse queen bees]] as main characters, all named Heather.

* Brick surname [=McArthur=] seems to be a reference to World War II general UsefulNotes/Douglas MacArthur, which highlights his military-themed characterization.
!!!Toxic Rats
* Though it may just be a coincidence, the name "Dakota" means "friend" or "ally," which fits her genuinely SpoiledSweet personality rather well.
* Dawn's name is synonymous with "sunlight," which fits her normally warmhearted personality in front of others (even if she unintentionally creeps them out with her magic powers).
!!Total Drama Pahkitew Island
!!!Pimâpotew Kinosewak
* Sammy's nickname Samey is one more letter than the word "same" and arose specifically because she is the younger twin sister of Amy.
* Scarlett explains she was named after an English surname derived from the occupational word for cloth. Also, it matches her hair color.
* Topher name plus his idol Chris equals Christopher, symbolizing how he idolizes the host and wants to become him.
!!!Wâneyihtam Maskwak
* Beardo has an awfully large beard for a teenager.
* Her name, Ella, is the second half of "Cinderella"
!!Total Drama Reboot

* Named "Ripper" for ripping farts. And his first shirt. And then his pants.
!!!Frogs Of Death
* Bowie is [[https://twitter.com/standupmonkey/status/1665060710567518209 named]] after Music/DavidBowie, a flamboyant singer well-known for his ties to sexual fluidity and the LGBT community.

* [[Characters/TotalDramaJulia Julia]] name can mean "vivaciousness," which is to be lively in a spiritual or temperamental way. She initially behaved as the former definition, modeling herself after chill GranolaGirl guru archetypes for social media, [[spoiler: before later showing her true colors as the latter, a [[CardCarryingVillain card-carrying]], backstabbing AlphaBitch.]]
* Raj's name means "King," which is very fitting [[spoiler: given his boyfriend Bowie often expressed his desire to win [[CoolCrowns crowns]] (As in competitions), and kings usually wear crowns. Hence, it's no wonder the latter won over the former's heart]].
