24No matter what range of emotion you're feeling towards another character, the best way to express it is to say their name — preferably in either a hoarse whisper or [[ChewingTheScenery scenery-chomping]] cry. Even if no one's around to hear you, just ''thinking'' about that character is enough of a prompt, provided you aren't running game. It's all but required if you're in the midst of rescuing your {{True Companion|s}}[=/=]{{Love Interest|s}} currently facing [[DamselInDistress imminent doom]], you're [[MeadowRun running towards each other]] in romantic rapture, or when [[ArchEnemy your mortal enemy]] has simply gone too far. Sometimes those last two [[FoeRomanceSubtext get confused]].
25
26Additionally, if your show features a large cast this also serves a narrative purpose: When they appear again after not being seen for three arcs, clearly stating their name once more helps the viewer identify and remember them.
27
28Of course there are times (especially in {{anime}}) when [[NoIndoorVoice they overdo it]] (see BigWordShout)
29
30Characters saying their own name can also fall under this trope, but if they do it incessantly, not for dramatic effect, that's PokemonSpeak.
31
32Many instances of this trope in Japanese works may also fall under FirstNameBasis. In Japanese culture, it is customary to use family names plus an honorific (usually "san", sometimes "senpai" for one's elders, "kun" for underlings, "dono" or "sama" for works set in older times, etc.) when addressing someone else, even directly (they rarely use the pronoun for "you" in formal settings, although they do have a few for informal situations). Children, especially girls, will often use first names with friends, although adults will usually only do this if they've been friends since childhood or are otherwise [[TrueCompanions close buddies]]. But when a couple has [[RelationshipUpgrade moved ahead in their relationship]], they will often [[SignificantNameShift switch]] to using {{first name|Basis}}s as well. In media, the first time a character calls their romantic interest by their first name (whether out of affection or distress), the scene often ends up being an example of this trope.
33
34Can overlap with AngryFistShake.
35
36Compare FirstNameBasis, FirstNameUltimatum, YouExclamation, YouSquared, SkywardScream. If you have a lot of people, all doing a "Say My Name" to each other, it's a RockyRollCall.
37
38Contrast IKnowYourTrueName where speaking it has much more dangerous implications.
39
40Examples of this trope are often subjected to MemeticMutation. Can result in {{Narm}}. If a person does this often, it can become a catchphrase. See also FamilialChiding, which is often predicated by the loud call of someone's name.

42Not to be confused with SpellMyNameWithAThe.

74* The ''Play Safe'' PSA involved one particular PSA called “Frisbee”, in which a girl named Amy gets her brother Jimmy to retrieve a frisbee from a sub-station, resulting in him getting electrocuted as Amy screams “JIMMYYYYYYYY!!!” Then, as the PSA (via radio news reporter) warns that children should never retrieve toys from sub-stations by themselves, the explosion and Amy’s cry of Jimmy’s name repeats, as the screen either fades to black or, in the 10 minute film, cuts back to the young robin feeling bad for the boy.

85* Creator/StanFreberg:
86** His record [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08T8Dt9tnFk "John and Marsha"]] spoofed the radio soap opera by having the characters say nothing but each other's names. Also featured on his [[Radio/TheStanFrebergShow radio program]]. (More recent generations may recognize this routine from [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcTd25SFtbA Peggy and Joey's imitation]] on ''Series/MadMen'').
87** The alien brain Krang in ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987'' liked watching a TV show that seemed to consist entirely of a man named John and a woman named Marsha staring at each other and saying their names over and over.
88** ''Magazine/{{Mad}}'': John didn't have his glasses on, and was saying it to the wrong girl at first. Also, he stepped off a cliff to kill himself; a trampoline saved him (repeatedly); the John-Marsha scene played; and when Marsha rejected him, that was the point when the trampoline people moved the trampoline....

93* In the Franchise/{{Batman}} storyline ''Comicbook/{{Knightfall}}'', Bane attempts to make Batman scream his name for mercy. Batman tells him "Go back to Hell" and Bane promptly breaks him.

94* ''Comicbook/{{Bookhunter}}'': When a PhoneTraceRace ends with his target eluding him, all Agent Bay can do is scream, "Damn you, [[InSeriesNickname Kettle Stitch!]]"
95* ''ComicBook/EarthX'': Uatu the Watcher has spent thirteen issues referring to [[RidiculouslyHumanRobots Machine Man]], aka Aaron Stack, by his model number, X-51, to emphasize that he is a robot and should have no loyalty to humanity--indeed, no human emotion at all. In the final issue, after being cut off from his sensory feed and left helpless, Uatu calls after him pleadingly: "X-51? X-51, ''please''. …Aaron?"
96* Used by ''ComicBook/{{Empowered}}'' during sex. "What's… my… name?"
97--> '''Thugboy''': Which one, baby?!
98%% * ''ComicBook/FantasticFour'': Doctor Doom: "RIIICHAAARDS!!!"
99* Franchise/GreenLantern Hal Jordan returns to Earth to find Coast City destroyed by Mongul and the Cyborg. He makes a beeline for where Mongul is beating up Steel and, just like Superman, screams Mongul's name as he tackles him.
100* ''ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk'':
101** In one story Bruce Banner makes this comment to a screaming Doctor Doom right after helping to take him down.
102** Doom had been fighting a Hulk robot that was screaming "DOOOM" as it pummeled him. As Doom turned the tables on the robot, he said "Once more… with feeling… '''say my name!'''" The above example is an IronicEcho of this scene.
103*** Of course there is Doom's famous semi-catchphrase from the Silver Age ""RRRRRRICHAAAAARRRRRDDDSS!!!""
104* ''ComicBook/{{Shazam}}'': Invoked in Captain Marvel's origin story, when the ancient wizard commands Billy Batson to speak his name: '''[[ByThePowerOfGrayskull SHAZAM]]!'''
105* ''[[Franchise/MonsterVerse Skull Island: The Birth of Kong]]'': [[Characters/MonsterVerseSkullIslandExpedition Dr. Brooks]] just {{Facepalm}}s and somberly says, "Oh, Aaron" when he realizes while listening to his son Aaron's ApocalypticLog and realizes that Aaron went to Skull Island after their argument. Aaron later screams [[spoiler:Matemavi]]'s name when they're shot dead in front of him.
106* ''ComicBook/SonicTheHedgehogIDW'':
107** During the [[ZombieApocalypse Metal Virus Saga]], [[spoiler:Tangle the Lemur gets infected with Dr. Eggman's Metal Virus]]. When the [[TheQuietOne normally quiet]] Whisper the Wolf hears the news, she screams her friend’s name, tears in her eyes.
108** In the "Chao Races and Badnik Bases" StoryArc, Rouge the Bat and Amy Rose recruit Cream the Rabbit and her Chao, Cheese, for TheCaper. Cream's mother, Vanilla, approves of her going on a "trip", but ''not'' the dangerous adventure said trip ultimately turns into. When Vanilla learns the truth at the end of the same arc, Rouge bails on the other girls, leaving Amy to scream her name in fury.
109** In the ''Imposter Syndrome'' miniseries, [[VillainProtagonist Surge the Tenrec and Kitsunami "Kit" the Fennec]] encounter a HumongousMecha that crushes Surge with a giant mace. Kit, witnessing this, screams his partner's name before [[UnstoppableRage going]] [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge ballistic]] at their attacker.
110* ''ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}'': In ''ComicBook/ElseworldsFinestSupergirlAndBatgirl'', a furious Supergirl hisses "Luthor" when she's about to attack him. ComicBook/LexLuthor dispassionately notes that they are no longer on a first-name basis.
111* Franchise/{{Superman}} shouting Mongul's name after freeing himself of the Black Mercy in "ComicBook/ForTheManWhoHasEverything". The force of the shout knocks Robin clean off his feet, and lets Mongul know he's only got a fraction of a second before Superman plows into him.
112--> "He hears a [[SuperScream voice like Armageddon shouting his name]], and he starts to turn--he knows he has perhaps [[SuperSpeed less than half a second in which to defend himself]] …but the rock of the far wall seems to [[DungeonBypass ripple outwards in a sudden cascade of powder]] and a [[UnstoppableRage four-hundred-mile-an-hour wind slams into him like a steam hammer as big as the world]]--and he knows that he is far too late."
113* ''ComicBook/TheUltimates'': The Chitauri blow up the office building that Hawkeye and his crew were demolishing. Black Widow, at the building in the other block, shouts his name in the comlink, not knowing if he was caught in the blast.
114* One 90's ''ComicBook/{{XMen}}''[=/=]''ComicBook/TheAvengers'' crossover featured this with a LampshadeHanging. Fabian Cortez kidnapped Luna Maximoff, and when her father, ComicBook/{{Quicksilver}}, shows up, he screams out Cortez's name, with Cortez [[DeadpanSnarker commenting drily]] that he should get Quicksilver to announce his name with such conviction whenever he enters a room.
115%% * ''ComicBook/XMen'' are prone to this a lot.
116%% * ComicBook/ZeroHourCrisisInTime: "Hal." "Ollie."

118
119[[folder:COMIC STRIIIIPS!]]
120* ''ComicStrip/{{Garfield}}:'' At one point Garfield is watching a soap that consists of a couple doing nothing but this. Reaching the end of his rope, Garfield changes channel... to another soap doing the exact same thing, but with different names.
121* ''ComicStrip/{{Retail}}'': Cooper makes this a condition of him covering the closure the South Heights Grumbel's. Stuart doesn't bite.

135--->''"Sallll-aaaaa-mannnnn-draaaa!"''
136** In a shout-out to ''ComicBook/ForTheManWhoHasEverything'', when Leviathan realizes who was responsible for [[spoiler:subjecting her to a powerful illusion and kidnapping her]], she first whispers the culprit's name before outright ''bellowing'' it at maximum volume.
137* ''Fanfic/PlanetOfTheCats'' (''Literature/CatPlanetCuties'' & ''Franchise/PlanetOfTheApes''): [[spoiler:Aoi's first (and only) word is "KIO!"]]
138
139[[AC:''Franchise/{{Danganronpa}}'']]
140* ''Fanfic/ThreePointShot'': Before her execution at the end of the first trial, Tsumugi, in full VillainousBreakdown mode, screams Kaede's name as her last words.
141

150
151[[AC:FusionFic]]
152* ''Fanfic/ChildrenOfAnElderGod'' (Franchise/CthulhuMythos & ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion''): In episode 19, after [[spoiler:Rei unintentionally hurts Asuka's body and soul,]] Asuka decides to face off against her:

157* ''Fanfic/AbraxasHrodvitnon'':
158** [[AdaptationalHeroism Monster X]] has a couple instances. [[MultipleHeadCase One of its two heads]] (it's actually hard to tell whether it's Vivienne or San) screams "'''''JONAH!'''''" in rage when they rampage with the intent to kill Alan Jonah for his heinous actions. San calls Vivienne by name a couple times, overlapping with YouCalledMeXItMustBeSerious, when he's distressed and calling out to her in fear and need of her.
159** After Monster X is officially christened ''Titanus Abraxas'', Madison Russell quietly tests that name on her tongue in the 11th chapter's last line; the new name of the TwoBeingsOneBody hybrid that her formerly-human ParentalSubstitute and San now form.
160** [[spoiler:Vivienne's mother Susan Graham]] screams "VIVIENNE!" when she loses communication with Monster X just after she's learned [[spoiler:the creature's main head is in fact Vivienne resurrected as a TranshumanAbomination]].
161** In a [[https://hrodvitnon.tumblr.com/post/723677263039807488/ non-canon crossover post]] where Monster X meets the five-headed Ghidorah that assimilated Vivienne and Madison into itself in the fanmade [[https://hrodvitnon.tumblr.com/post/690183858150326272/ Go]] [[https://hrodvitnon.tumblr.com/post/690257565779689472/ Alternate]] [[https://hrodvitnon.tumblr.com/post/690540049742348288/ Universe]], Monster X, upon recognizing who one of Ghidorah's two new female heads is, simply says in horror, "...Maddie...?"

164* ''Fanfic/AngerManagement'':
165** Defied when Lincoln wants to scream Lynn's name in frustration but decides not to lest he get in trouble.
166** Played straight when Lola yells Lynn's name for accidentally making her eat mayo instead of vanilla pudding.

168* ''Fanfic/WhatYouWishFor'': Luna says, "Leni!" to scold her for bringing up Lincoln, and then Rita says, "Lynn Junior!" to scold her for swearing.

182
183[[AC:Unsorted]]
184* ''Fanfic/JonathanJoestarTheFirstJoJo'': [[spoiler: At the very end of Chapter 16, Jotaro yells Jonathan's name after the latter is punched through the torso by Heaven Ascended Dio.]]
185* In ''WebVideo/NullmetalAlchemist'' the moment Ed hears Majhal's name he begins screaming it, freaking out everybody around him.
186* ''Fanfic/TheChildOfLove'':
187** In chapter 2 Shinji gets confused because Asuka called him "Shinji-kun" (in the proper series Asuka only called him “Shinji” twice: when she met him for first time and--quite interestingly--before their kiss).
188** In chapter 5, after realizing Asuka is about to [[spoiler:commit suicide:]]
189--->'''Shinji''' (realizing):''"W-what did she just say…? She--no… ASUKA!!!!"''

193* In first part of ''Fanfic/StallionsOfHarmonyVerse'', two main characters, Shining Armor and Prince Blueblood, managed to never say each others name, despite being stuck together for an entire day and then a several days of adventure in Everfree Forest. They even noticed that themselves after everything went back to normal and they had a long, heartfelt conversation ending with going into FirstNameBasis… and being MistakenForGay by the crowd.
194* In the ''Fanfic/HorseshoesAndHandGrenades'' story, ''A Month of Sundays'', Yayoi screams Damballa's name when she catches up to him after [[spoiler: he resurrected Haruto into a CreepyDoll.]]
195* Inuyasha and Kagome say each other's names many times in ''Manga/InuYasha''. This tendency gets lampshaded twice so far in the ContinuationFic ''Fanfic/BeyondTomorrow''; in [[spoiler: chapter 15]], when Ren grabs Kagome and begins to make off with her, Miroku and Sango get so annoyed at it that they tell Inuyasha to just shut up and save Kagome already, and in [[spoiler: chapter 22]], when Inuyasha begins to call for Kagome after she jumps down the Bone Eater's Well, Sesshomaru promptly {{Dope Slap}}s him and tells him not to start.
196* The incredibly short fanfic ''Dirty Pair Meets Akira'' consists entirely of a shouted SayMyName of each cast member, and the planet exploding.

199* When England cries out for Scotland in Pottertalia fic ''Fanfic/{{Snakeskins}}'', many readers swore they could even hear his voice break with just text.
200* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8222340/1/Chasing-the-Moon Chasing the Moon]]'' has "Yuzu!" being a thing that [[spoiler:Byakuya shouts as she's floating away from him to go take on the BigBad by herself.]] It's the first time he has ever used her [[LastNameBasis first name]] [[FullNameBasis (without her last)]].
201* In ''Fanfic/ShinjiAndWarhammer40K'' when Shinji realizes Kaworu chose to [[spoiler:attack Tokyo-3 with the Black Moon]] on Shinji's birthday as a personal insult, Shinji screams "NAAAGIIIISAAAA!" The killing intent mixed with this was enough to cause all of the attackers to stumble.
202* In ''Fanfic/NarutoTheSecretSongsOfTheNinja,'' [[spoiler:the Kyuubi]] has [[spoiler:completely taken over Naruto's body]] and is about to start killing people, starting with [[spoiler:the Sand Siblings]]. Just when things are [[DarkestHour at their bleakest,]] [[spoiler:Hinata]] screams ''"NARUTO-KUN!"'', freezing [[spoiler:the Kyuubi]] in its tracks [[spoiler:and waking Naruto up in time for a BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind against the fox]].

205* The prologue of ''Fanfic/TwinklingInTheDark'' ends with all three members of the [[Anime/SmilePrecure Bad End Kingdom]] shrieking Joker's name as he plummets to the ground after nearly dying to the Pretty Cure.
206[[/folder]]
207
208[[folder:FIIILM! ANIMATED!]]
209* ''WesternAnimation/AnAmericanTail'' and its sequels do this ''a lot'', usually when Fievel Mousekewitz gets into dangerous situations.
210** The infamous storm scene uses this trope to gut-wrenching effect. Fievel yells in vain for his Papa to help him, while his father can only helplessly scream for his son as the latter falls overboard into the sea.
211** Near the end of the film, when Papa hears Fievel calling for him, he immediately jumps off Tiger's back and screams Fievel's name at the top of his lungs as he runs to him.
212--->'''Fievel:''' Papa? Papa! Where are you? Papa!\
213'''Papa:''' Fievel? ''(To Tiger)'' Wait, stop! ''(Dismounts)'' '''''FIEVEL!!!'''''\
214'''Fievel:''' I'm coming, Papa!
215** Tony and Bridget also do this during the climax as they frantically search for Fievel amidst the burning pier. As usual, they use the nickname "Filly" that Tony gave him, although Tony gets desperate enough that, at one point, he shouts out Fievel's real name--[[OOCIsSeriousBusiness which he rarely does, except when Fievel is in danger]].
216*** In the [[WesternAnimation/AnAmericanTailFievelGoesWest second movie]], Papa again, after [[TheDragon T. Chula]] throws Fievel off the train. On a more lighthearted note, Fievel and Tiger happily exclaim each other's names when they reunite in the Indian camp.
217*** The [[WesternAnimation/AnAmericanTailTheTreasureOfManhattanIsland third movie]] has Tony again yelling Fievel's real name when Fievel gets pinned by a nailed board in front of a speeding subway train. The mob sequence later in the movie also uses this trope quite a bit.
218* ''WesternAnimation/{{Brave}}'': Fergus screams "ELINOOOOORRRRRR!" when he finds her torn dress and believes she's been killed by a bear.
219* ''WesternAnimation/DiaryOfAWimpyKidRodrickRules'': Rowley tells Greg that wasn't a Rockstart project, that just a "Do Plants Sneeze?". Greg angrily screaming Rodrick's name and birds flying away.
220-->'''Greg:''' '''''RODRICK!!!'''''
221* ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994'': Simba returns to the Pride Lands in time to hear Scar loudly calling for Sarabi, Simba's mother, to berate her for the lionesses' apparent failure at hunting for food.
222* Probably at least ''half'' of the dialogue of WesternAnimation/WallE and EVE consists of their own and each other's names. The third most common word is "directive".
223* Try keeping track of how often the hero's name is said in ''WesternAnimation/{{Beowulf|2007}}'', most notably in the sea monster fight ("BEEOOWUULLF!"). There are quite a few shouting of [[PunctuatedForEmphasis "I am Beowulf!"]] in there (of varying [[NoIndoorVoice volume]] and {{p|unctuatedForEmphasis}}acing), and Wiglaf even gets the odd "You are Beowulf!".
224* ''WesternAnimation/TheSwanPrincess'':
225** When Derek finds out that Odette was kidnapped and is possibly dead, and again when he learns she's cursed to die because he [[MistakenDeclarationOfLove pledged his love to an imposter.]] "ODEEETTE!"
226** Odette screams when Derek is tricked into his MistakenDeclarationOfLove: "DEREEEK!" ([[BigNo "NOOOOO!"]])
227* Although he doesn't use their actual names, the Professor calling out for the girls in ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirlsMovie'' as he's being strangled snaps them out of their HeroicBSOD in space. They end up fulfilling the trope more properly.
228-->'''Professor:''' [''gasping''] Girls!\
229'''Blossom, Bubbles & Buttercup:''' [''all together''] Professor! [''in a flash, they're back on Earth, flying at top speed''] Professor! PROFESSOR! '''PROFFESSSSOOOOR!'''
230* Disney's ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'' has a climactic scene towards the end where Belle calls out "Beast!" The audio commentary notes that they'd forgotten to give the prince a name.
231* In ''WesternAnimation/FrozenII'', Elsa shouts Anna's name just before [[spoiler:being turned into pure ice]].
232* ''WesternAnimation/AllDogsGoToHeaven'': CHAAARLIE!!! Though it is shouted a few times, the sheer number of times every single character feels the need to say his name is baffling. It averages at one "Charlie" a minute. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kE5J4bOOcJo Have a look]].
233%% * ''WesternAnimation/{{Nine}}'' gets '''"2!"''' As well as:
234%% -->'''9:''' ''[[NumericalThemeNaming 7!]]''
235%% -->'''7:''' ''[[YouAreNumberSix 9!]]''
236%% * The subpar Disney movie ''WesternAnimation/TheWild'' had "RYAN! '''RYAN'''! '''RYYYAAAN!'''" over, and over, and over.
237* In the 1973 film version of ''Literature/CharlottesWeb'' after Charlotte passes away:
238-->'''Wilbur:''' Charlotte? ''Charlotte??'' '''CHARLOTTE!!'''
239%% * ''WesternAnimation/{{Tangled}}'': '''RYYYYDEEERRRR!!!'''
240%% * ''WesternAnimation/PeterPan'': "SMEEE!!!"
241* ''WesternAnimation/FindingNemo'': Even for a traumatized father who is looking for his lost son, Marlin is using the word "NEEEMOOO!" way too much.
242%% * ''WesternAnimation/ChickenRun'': During the climax…
243%% --> '''Rocky:''' [[ChangedMyMindKid GIIINNNGGGEEERRRR!]]
244%% --> '''Ginger:''' ROCKKKYYY!
245* ''WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTime'': In the original film, every time the SuperPersistentPredator villain attacked:
246--> '''''[[OhCrap SHARPTOOOTH!]]'''''
247* ''WesternAnimation/TheBookOfLife'':
248** Joaquin loves to shout his own name during combat.
249** When [[spoiler:Manolo]] dies, the last thing he says is Maria's name.
250** When [[spoiler: she finds out Xibalba cheated to win the wager]], La Muerte [[SkywardScream shouts out]] Xibalba's name.
251* ''WesternAnimation/PeterPan'': '''''"SMEEEEEEEEE!!!"''''''
252* ''WesternAnimation/SouthParkBiggerLongerAndUncut'': When Terrance is shot by Kyle's mom, Phillip screams "TERRANCE!" before he too is shot.
253* ''WesternAnimation/ThePrinceOfEgypt'': Ramses called out to Moses [[IronicEcho two times twice in the film]]. The first was when Moses went into exile and he pleaded him to stay, then the second time [[spoiler:was when Ramses shouted his name in pure rage and despair after his kingdom is in ruins and his army failed to captured the Hebrews.]]
254* Done in ''WesternAnimation/TheSpongeBobMovieSpongeOutOfWater'' when Mr. Krabs breaks back into the Krusty Krab after finding out Plankton got into his safe:
255--> '''''"PLAAAAAAAAANKTOOOOOOOOON."'''''
256* In ''WesternAnimation/TheSuperMarioBrosMovie'', after Mario and his friends ruin Bowser's plan to marry Peach, the hellishly livid Koopa king roars out his arch-enemy's name in anger.
257-->'''Bowser:''' '''MARIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!'''
258* A few during the climax of ''WesternAnimation/WreckItRalph''. King Candy [[spoiler:(who is revealed to be Turbo and is now a Cy-Bug [[YouAreWhoYouEat after being eaten by one]])]] has a hold on Ralph and flies up to the sky with him, and Vanellope calls out Ralph's name after seeing this. A little bit later, Ralph sees Vanellope heading to the exit with Cy-Bugs approaching and at first quietly calls out "Kid!" like he had been mostly referring to her throughout the movie; then he sees her failing to exit Sugar Rush due to her glitch, with the Cy-Bugs still heading her way and Ralph still quietly but more desperately calls out her name while [[FutileHandReach reaching out to her in vain]]. Shortly after, Ralph gets out of King Candy's grip and [[spoiler:falls through the Mentos stalactites of Diet Cola Mountain to cause an eruption]] to [[GoIntoTheLight attract the Cy-Bugs and get rid of them]], [[spoiler:[[HeroicSacrifice knowing full well he won't survive.]]]] Vanellope sees Ralph falling and calls his name then Felix calls out to her as she [[spoiler:[[TeleportSpam glitches]] over to Diet Cola Mountain to save Ralph.]]
259* In the prologue of ''WesternAnimation/{{Anastasia}}'' the Dowager Empress Marie is able to board a train leaving St. Petersburg, but Anastasia slips out of her grasp and hits her head on the platform. The scene ends with Marie screaming Anastasia's name as the train pulls out of the station, forcing her to leave her granddaughter behind.
260* ''WesternAnimation/SupermanRedSon''. The United States creates Superior Man to challenge the Soviet Superman. Superior Man flies over to Moscow, does a ThreePointLanding that blasts a crater in the ground, then shouts: "SUPERMAN!" so loudly he breaks every window in the Kremlin. Needless to say this gets the Man of Soviet Steel's attention.
261* ''WesternAnimation/CatsDontDance'' has Darla Dimple yelling for her butler Max with anger when Danny tries performing his talent on the set of Lil' Ark Angel, and in the end with fear (not learning he's now stuck on a balloon of her) after Pudge pulls the trap door for her demise.
262* ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformersTheMovie'' has Megatron yelling Starscream's name after the latter ejects him from Astrotrain despite his protests that he is not too injured to continue on. Somehow fitting as the culmination of their four million year long relationship of abusive tyrannical leader and scheming treacherous second-in-command.
263-->'''Starscream:''' [[SarcasmMode Oh, how it pains me to do this]].\
264'''Megatron:''' Wait! [[ICanStillFight I still function]]!\
265'''Starscream:''' ([[ThrownOutTheAirlock heaving Megatron out the nearest door]]) Wanna bet?\
266'''Megatron:''' STARSCREEAAAM!
267* ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory2'':
268** Buzz yells out "Slinky!" when Slinky is pulled off a suitcase in the airport baggage area when his back half sticks in another suitcase handle.
269** Buzz does it again on the tarmac, shouting "Woody!" when Woody is pulled off of him when trying to climb a baggage wagon.
270** Woody does it to Buzz when his hat blows off while hanging off the plane and Buzz, riding Bullseye, catches it.
271* ''WesternAnimation/{{Ratatouille}}'': Émile and Rémy do this to each other when they reunite outside Gusteau's.
272* In ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'', [[spoiler:While in her gigantic panda form]], Ming furiously bellows, '''''"MEIMEI!!!"'''''
273[[/folder]]
274
275[[folder:MULLLTIPLLLE MEEEDIAAA!]]
276* Franchise/MonsterVerse:
277** ''Film/Godzilla2014'': [[Characters/MonsterVerseFamilies Joe Brody]] ''roars'' his son's name when he sees the latter in peril from afar amid the carnage caused by Hokmuto's emergence at the Janjira BlackSite.
278** ''Film/GodzillaKingOfTheMonsters2019'':
279*** [[OutlivingOnesOffspring Mark Russell]], over and over, in the opening flashback when he's desperately searching for his son amid the devastation in San Francisco:
280--->"''ANDREW! ANDREW!''"
281*** [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes Alan Jonah]] when his right-hand Asher is shot in front of him:
282--->"''ASH!''"
283*** Mark and Emma Russell both when looking for their daughter in a city that's being reduced to rubble and obliterated by Godzilla, Ghidorah, Mothra and Rodan's FinalBattle:
284--->"''MADISON!''"\
285"''MADDIE!''"
286** ''WesternAnimation/SkullIsland2023'':
287*** Sam when his employer and close friend Irene is attacked by a [[ManEatingPlant Venus Fly Trap Creature]] in front of him, before he starts hacking her free:
288--->"''IRENE!''"
289*** The blonde mercenary calling out for help from his comrades in the sixth episode [[spoiler:before the [[BigBad Kraken]] kills him]]:
290--->"''SAM!''"%%
291
292* ''Franchise/StarTrek'':
293** ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'':
294*** Kirk is the one doing most of this, as he is played by [[LargeHam William Shatner]]. [[TheMcCoy Mc Coy ]] gets his share of moments too, screaming [[FirstNameBasis "Jim!"]] or [[VitriolicBestBuds "Spock!"]] depending on which one is in danger and/or doing something CrazyIsCool (or plain crazy) at the moment.
295*** If [[TheSpock Spock]] does this, you ''know'' shit is about to hit the fan. The one time he shouted "Jim!" was when he was leaping forward to [[TakingTheBullet shield Kirk from a deadly poison shooting alien.]]
296** ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'':
297*** Data gets a couple of these. Usually when he's assumed dead, like in the episode "The Most Toys", by TheStoic Worf of all people.
298*** In "Tin Man", it's Picard who screams. It was Patrick Stewart's line, so the odds of it being done badly were pretty slim.
299** ''Film/StarTrekIITheWrathOfKhan'':
300*** "KHAAAAAN!" Captain Kirk is being a LargeHam on purpose, [[BatmanGambit in order to fool Khan into thinking he's won.]]
301*** Khan has his fair share of shouting "KIRK!"
302** ''[[Film/StarTrekFirstContact First Contact]]'': Data's name is also shouted at him by the Borg Queen at an appropriate moment. His response? [[IronicEcho "Resistance is futile."]]
303** The franchise parodied itself in the [[Film/StarTrek2009 movie]] from 2009, where the name shouted by Nero is "SPOCK!" With the interesting twist that he was thwarted by his enemy's younger self.
304** Still in the [[Film/StarTrek2009 2009 reboot]], Spock calling Lt. Uhura by her first name "Nyota" is meaningful because it emphasizes the fact she is his significant other too, beyond being a fellow officer. You can tell a scene is more personal for him when he refers to her as "Nyota". Furthermore, it is the first time her first name is uttered in canon, and there is a running joke with Kirk in the first movie as he tries to make her tell him what's her first name but she refuses to.
305--->'''Lt. Nyota Uhura''': I'll be monitoring your frequency.
306--->'''Spock''': thank you, ''Nyota''.
307--->'''James T. Kirk''': (after Uhura leaves) So her first name's Nyota?
308--->'''Spock''': ''I have no comment on the matter.''.
309** See this video: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSdEBdmzvQI "Spock!" "Captain!" "Bones!" "Spock!" "Jim!"]] Spock is bedridden. Kirk is worried. Doctor is concerned.
310** ''Film/StarTrekIntoDarkness'' played it relatively straight on the other hand, as an infuriated and emotional Spock has to helplessly watch [[spoiler:Kirk die]]. Cue Spock screaming ''[[spoiler:"KHAAAAAN!"]]''
311[[/folder]]
312
313[[folder:MUUUSIIIC!]]
314* Side one of the 1969 album ''Music/WeddingAlbum'' by Music/JohnLennon and Music/YokoOno is [[OverlyLongGag 22 minutes and 41 seconds]] of nothing but SayMyName.
315%%* Music/{{DMX}}: [["PunctuatedForEmphasis WHAT'S! MY! NAME!"]]
316%%* Music/SnoopDogg: "What's my motherfucing name?"
317%%* Music/KidRock: "MY NAME IS KIIID ROOOCK!"
318%%* ''Franchise/AlvinAndTheChipmunks'': AAALVIIIN!!
319* Some of Music/{{Gackt}}'s "Call and Response" routines during concerts consist of a legion of fans shouting his name in unison.
320* The Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick, and Tich song "The Wreck of the Antoinette" includes the protagonist and the narrators crying out "Antoinette! Antoinette!"
321%%* Music/{{Eminem}} has a couple of songs about his stage name "Slim Shady", bragging about himself and how he's the real deal.
322%%* JAAAASSON DERUUUUULOOOOOO!!!!
323* Music/DestinysChild's "Say My Name" (natch) Invokes the trope as a challenge to the unnamed boyfriend of the singer whom she suspects is two-timing her with another girl and wants him to say her name to prove he's serious about their relationship rather than him continuing to try to dodge around her.
324[[/folder]]
325
326[[folder:PINBALL!!!!!]]
327* ''Pinball/TheAddamsFamily'' has [[LargeHam Gomez]] and Morticia's exchange.
328-->'''Morticia:''' GOMEZ!\
329'''Gomez:''' TISH!
330* ''Pinball/TheShadow'' does this with The Shadow/Lamont Cranston and Margo:
331-->"Shadow?" "Margo!"\
332"Margo!" "Lamont?"
333[[/folder]]
334
335[[folder:PROOOO WRESTLING!!!!!]]
336* Former Wrestling/{{WCW}} and Wrestling/{{WWE}} wrestler [[Wrestling/{{Goldberg}} Bill Goldberg]] caused fans to chant "GOOOLD-BERG! GOOOLD-BERG!" during his entrance; combined with his epic entrance music (and his streak), it helped sell him as a badass.
337* Hailey Hatred had a tendency to call out an opponent's name during matches. Usually right before bowling over them.
338* Wrestling/{{WWE}} superstar Wrestling/AlbertoDelRio might be the TropeCodifier for ProfessionalWrestling--at least in the modern era. He has a very hammy ring announcer, Ricardo Rodriguez, that routinely ends every introduction (the vast majority in Spanish, of course), with an absurdly long yell of the wrestler's name. "ALBERTOOOOOOO…" frequently cracks a full ''ten seconds''--and now that he's turned Face within the last year, the vast majority of the crowd participates in the trope as well.
339[[/folder]]
340
341[[folder:PUPPET SHOOOOWWWWS!!!!!]]
342* ''Series/BarneyAndFriends'': BAAARNEEYY!—the kids greet their (imaginary?) friend this way almost every episode, followed by crowding around and hugging him.  One way to kick off the episode has one or more children sitting around and making Barney come to them before sadly saying, "Hello, Barney," prompting the dinosaur to ask what's wrong.
343[[/folder]]
344
345[[folder:SPOOOORTS!]]
346* During UsefulNotes/MuhammadAli's fight with Ernie Terrell, who would only refer to him as Cassius Clay (his old name), Ali repeatedly shouted, "What's my name? What's my name?" Oscar Bonavena, a subsequent opponent of Ali's [[BullyingADragon did the exact same thing.]] So did Ali, dishing out the most [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown one-sided beating]] of his career.
347* Very common in sports arenas when the home team scores. Variations includes chanting, yelling etc.
348** It's also very common for commentators to do this when a player from either team scores. One highly memorable example is Martin Tyler's scream of "AGUEROOOOOOO!!!" as Sergio Aguero scored the [[DownToTheLastPlay last-minute goal]] that won Manchester City the 2011-12 UsefulNotes/EnglishPremierLeague at the expense of cross-town rivals Manchester United.
349** Another iconic football example: after Dennis Bergkamp scored a spectacular (and again, last-minute) winner in the 1998 FIFA World Cup quarter-finals, putting the Netherlands through at the expense of Argentina, Dutch commentator Jack van Gelder was reduced to screaming Bergkamp's name [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXtd8CiBr2s over and over again]], in awe of what he'd just seen.
350--->"'''DENNIS BERGKAMP! DENNIS BERGKAMP! DENNIS BERGKAMP! [[BrokenRecord DENNIS BERGKAMP!]] [[OverlyLongGag DENNIS BERGKAMP!]]'''"
351[[/folder]]
352
353[[folder:TABLETOP GAMES!!!!!]]
354* In ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'', the legendary Lord General Ursarkar E. Creed is notorious for having [[TheChessmaster a plan within a plan]], and his (sadly no longer) unique ability, Tactical Genius, allows him to infiltrate almost any unit (super-heavy tanks and 45 foot tall mechas included) almost anywhere, leading his enemies to screech CREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED!!!!!!! when his plan is revealed and turns the tide of battle.
355[[/folder]]
356
357[[folder:VISUAAAL NOVEEELS!]]
358* ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'':
359** TheHero Shirou Emiya and BigBad Kirei Kotomine seem to enjoy saying each others' full name, especially when yelling. More the former than [[TheStoic the latter]].
360** Kirei seems to be fond of saying Shirou's full name, both for dramatic effect and to savor the fact that he is speaking to the adopted son of his old ArchEnemy Kiritsugu Emiya. All other cases of "Say My Name" in this game are appropriate for the situations, but Kotomine loves going out of the way to say "Emiya Shirou" even when a simple "you" would do.
361** Shirou will also yell "SAABEERR!" a lot, particularly when he summons her during his fight with Rider.
362* ''VisualNovel/MajikoiLoveMeSeriously'': Tatsuko, at one point during the Ryuuzetsuran route, is reduced to repeating "Yamato-kun" over and over again [[UnstoppableRage while fighting]].
363* A number of the {{Big Bad}}s of the ''VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorney'' series yell out the name of their most hated enemy when defeated in court.
364** Particularly scary to the point where things burst into flame, as seen with [[spoiler:Dalia Hawthorne]]. "MIA. FEY. MIIA FEEY!"
365** [[spoiler:Kristoph]]'s insane, iconic "[=WRIIIiiiGGGggghhhHHHTTT!!!=]" which is so long it takes multiple text boxes to fill.
366** [[spoiler: Querus Alba]] screams Edgeworth's name before dissolving into a [[TheScream long wordless scream.]]
367%%** EDGEWOOORTH!!!
368%%* ''VisualNovel/AoiShiro'': ROURYU! ROURYU! [[BigBad BA ROURYU]]!
369* In ''VisualNovel/TokimekiMemorial 2'', Akane's brother [[spoiler: [[{{Delinquents}} Sou-Banchou]]]] is ''very'' fond of this trope, each time his KnightTemplarBigBrother side kicks in. "AAAKAAANEEE!!!"
370* ''VisualNovel/YoJinBo'':
371** After Hatsuhime's first meeting with the other main characters, Yo teases Jin: "Haaatsu-chaaan! Jiiin-samaaa!"
372%%** Ittosai's Bad Ending is titled "Call My Name" for a reason.
373* The [[MultipleEndings Safe Ending]] of ''VisualNovel/NineHoursNinePersonsNineDoors'' has Ace yell "[[KillerGameMaster ZEEEROOO]]!" as he is [[spoiler:incinerated along with [[TakingYouWithMe Snake]]]]. In the same ending, Junpei gives a shout of "Kaaaannyyyyyy!" after [[spoiler:Akane vanishes]].
374** In ''VisualNovel/ZeroTimeDilemma'', whenever Zero II appears on a monitor or comes on the intercom, almost (but not quite) ''every single time'', one character will say "Zero..." in a dramatic fashion.
375* It's like crack to the characters of ''VisualNovel/UminekoWhenTheyCry''. The most commonly met are [[TheLostLenore "OOOOH BEATORIIICHEEEE"]] (basically whenever Kinzō appears in the early arcs) and "Ushiromiya BATORAAAA" (whenever [[{{Troll}} Beatrice]] [[HamToHamCombat starts a duel]] [[MindGameShip or teases Battler]]).
376* At the climax of Koujaku's route in ''VisualNovel/DramaticalMurder'', when Koujaku finally meets with his nemesis at Oval Tower, Aoba notes Koujaku's [[SanitySlippage unusual rage]] as he shouts "RYUUUUUUHOOOOOUUUUUU!!" at the top of his lungs.
377* ''VisualNovel/{{Sunrider}}'':
378** PlayedForLaughs in ''[[HighschoolAU Sunrider Academy]]'', where StudentCouncilPresident candidates Kayto Shields and Fontana shout each other’s names after [[PrettyBoy Fontana]] deploys his "[[ShirtlessScene secret]] [[BishieSparkle weapon]]" during the final campaign speech, causing Kayto’s sister [[LovableSexManiac Maray]] to pass out from a {{nosebleed}}.
379** PlayedForDrama in ''Sunrider Liberation Day'', where Fontana and Kayto bellow each other’s names in rage because Kayto [[spoiler:unwittingly brought a Prototype spy to the Liberation Day ceremony, causing a massacre]] and Fontana [[spoiler:shot and killed Kayto’s LoveInterest Chigara, who is the aforementioned spy]].
380---> ”SHIELDS!”\
381"FONTANAAA!"
382** PlayedForDrama once again in ''Sunrider 4: The Captain's Return'', where Kayto bellows Fontana's name in impotent rage as the latter swipes the mainframe containing the only clue to Crow Harbor's location just before Kayto can get his hands on it.
383[[/folder]]
384
385[[folder:WEB ANIMATIOOON!]]
386* In the ''WebAnimation/BadDays'' short about ''ComicBook/TheWalkingDead'', most of Rick's dialogue consists of calling out, "Lori! Carl!" Lee's only line involves yelling, "Clementine!" [[spoiler: Finally, after Rick discovers that Lori has cheated on him with Shane, Rick growls, "Shannnne!", then beats Shane up.]]
387* ''WebAnimation/{{Chadam}}'': When Sandy is left dying from a Pallid attack, Chadam screams her name as the episode ends.
388* [=DanTDM=]: Near the end of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PBc5hi65AQ the first part of Custom Vacation Adventure]], Dan shouts his friend Trayaurus' name when he can't find him on the island.
389* ''WebAnimation/{{Dreamscape}}'': In "A Curse or a Blessing", Dylan and Betty scream Pita's name when he gets vaporized by Melinda. Later on, Dylan screams Betty's name when she gets bisected. In both cases, the named individual quickly gets better.
390%%* ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner'': SING IT WITH US NOW: TROGDOOOR! TROGDOOOR [[http://www.homestarrunner.com/20x6vs1936.html "20X6!" "1936!"]]
391* ''WebAnimation/IfTheEmperorHadATextToSpeechDevice'': When Leman Russ learns from Fyodor that the latter was sent to the Warp by a one-eyed crimson daemon in the Imperial Palace, Leman ''immediately'' recognizes the description. His [[SuppressedRage sheer anger]] at the revelation is enough to visibly shake the air.
392-->'''Leman:''' '''''[[SiblingRivalry MMMAAAAGNUUUUUS...]]'''''
393%%* ''WebAnimation/CharlieTheUnicorn'':
394%%** "CHAAARLIIIEEE!"
395%% ** By Jason Steele: ''WebAnimation/LlamasWithHats''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZUPCB9533Y "CAAARRLL."]]
396* [[spoiler:[[AxCrazy Tricky]]]]'s first action upon coming BackFromTheDead in ''WebAnimation/MadnessCombat 11: Expurgation'' is to screech '''''HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANK!''''', the protagonist's name.
397* ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'':
398** A deadly serious case at the end of Volume 3, when Ruby sees [[spoiler:Cinder shoot and kill Pyrrha. As she screams Pyrrha's name, [[EleventhHourSuperpower white light bursts from her eyes]].]]
399** In a similar situation to the first example, in Volume 5, Jaune sees [[spoiler:Cinder impale Weiss, and screams the latter's name.]] Unlike above, [[spoiler:Weiss survives.]]
400** Volume 5 also sees Hazel's reaction when he realizes [[ResurrectiveImmortality just whom he's up against]]: [[spoiler:"OZPIIIIIIIN!"]]
401** In the penultimate episode of Volume 8, [[spoiler:Yang falls into a void and vanishes into a sparkle of light, prompting Blake, who tried and failed to save her from falling to scream her name before [[HeroicBsod breaking down in tears.]]]]
402* ''[[WebAnimation/Supermarioglitchy4sSuperMario64Bloopers SMG4]]'':
403** [=SMG4=] says Mario's name out loud in "Spaghetti Law" when the latter mistakes the former for [[TrademarkFavoriteFood spaghetti]].
404** [=SMG3=] to Bowser in "Bad Stars" when he doesn't listen.
405--->'''[=SMG3=]:''' Bowser! Get your fatass over here!\
406''[Bowser just spins around]''\
407'''[=SMG3=]:''' BOWSER!
408* ''WebAnimation/TimberWolf'': Played with. Basically Thomas T. Wolf’s curse; trees fall on him if he says his middle name. Especially whenever he shouts it.
409[[/folder]]
410
411[[folder:WEEEBCOMIIICS!]]
412* ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'':
413** When the Monster in the Dark finally stops calling O-Chul "Mr. Stiffly" and [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0654.html shouts out his name]] as he rushes towards a HopelessBossFight against Xykon.
414** Belkar, who addresses the elf wizard Vaarsuvius as "Elf" or "Ears" or, more often, with some insulting nickname, when he and Haley are left behind after the other half of the team sails away: "OK, elf, enough with the jokes. You got me, fair enough, now bring the ship back. (...) No, seriously, wherever you're hiding: You really had me thinking for a moment that we got left behind. Great illusion. Now, can we just get out of this stupid city already? (...) [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0483.html Vaarsuvius?]]"
415** [[spoiler: And then in [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0886.html #886]], Xykon finally remembers [[AccidentalMisnaming "that Bluepommel guy"'s]] name... [[LotusEaterMachine apparently]].]]
416** Strip #1000 ends with Roy screaming [[spoiler:Durkon]]'s name.
417%%* ''Webcomic/LookingForGroup'':
418%%** "Chicken!" "Pinky." "Old Cow!" "Brother." "Engineer." "Dwarf." [[OddNameOut "RICHARD!"]]
419%%** VideoGame/MetalWolfChaos "RICHAAARD!"
420%%** Comicbook/FantasticFour RICHARDS!
421* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'':
422** Rose yells STRIIIDEEER! at Dave as her house is about to be meteor'd and she wants him to hurry up. Also, he just threw her bed out of her house and put a lot of important devices in cumbersome, hard-to-reach places.
423** "HUUUSIIIEEE" is ''[[MemeticMutation the]]'' response among the fandom to stumbling upon a new piece of {{foreshadowing}} or FridgeBrilliance. [[JigsawPuzzlePlot Needless to say]], this happens ''very'' often.
424%%* ''Webcomic/BrawlInTheFamily'': SAKURAIII!
425* ''Webcomic/TheInexplicableAdventuresOfBob:'' [[https://bobadventures.thecomicseries.com/comics/471 Here,]] when Jean and Voluptua think that Bob and Hibachi have been killed and scream their names. Notably, this moment was Voluptua's LoveEpiphany regarding Hibachi.

429%%** '''Karnak:''' ''I heard you the first time.''
430%%* ''Webcomic/PowerpuffGirlsDoujinshi'': "DEEDEE!!!", "BLOSSOM!!!", "SPARKY!!!"
431%%* ''Webcomic/{{Fite}}'' has a couple of these, but only if you learn to recognize the [[SpeakingSimlish symbols]] representing the characters' names.
432* In ''Webcomic/{{Panthera}}'', this is played for drama when Jason/Leo starts doubting everything he thought he knew about himself both in relation to the rest of the team and by himself as a result of his MentorMole revealing his true colors and getting killed and failing to come up with a plan in North Korea.
433-->'''Leo:''' Cats don't need licenses to hunt, fight, kill. But they never have to worry about ''why'' they do it, or the ''greater consequences'', either. And we... Tigris, what's my name?\
