5* ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'':
6** Princess Angelina Contessa Louisa Francesca Banana-Fana-Bo-Besca III, but you can call her "Dot", just Dot. [[BerserkButton Call her "Dottie" and you die.]] One episode sees her trip over the name numerous times in a series of HilariousOuttakes, finally bursting into a [[ClusterBleepBomb heavily censored rant]]. When she demands that Yakko try reciting it, he does so flawlessly, to which she snipes, "Oh, thank you, [[CallBack Mr. United-States-Canada-Mexico-Panama!]]"
7** Professor Otto Von Schnitzelpusskrankengescheitmeyer from "Schnitzelbank".
8--->'''Wakko''' (singing): [[LampshadeHanging Ist das nicht ein incredibly long name to have to try and say?]]

10* ''WesternAnimation/TheMagicKey'': One episode features a “space elf” named “Uppity Downity Hoppity Skippity Flippity Spinnity Jiggity Lug”, or just “Lug” for short.
11* In the ''WesternAnimation/PinkyAndTheBrain'' episode "Around the World in 80 Narfs", Brain's initial alias (Lord Brain of [=LumpfordChestershire=]) is bad enough, but after a miscommunication with Pinky, Brain becomes known as Lord [=Narf!UmWhatBrainLumpfordsomethingshire=].
12** In "A Legendary Tail", the Brain comes up with a folk hero that is a mishmash of several legendary names, "Big Johnny Brain Jones Peachpit Bill Boone Crockett". Just don't ask Pinky to repeat it.
13* On ''WesternAnimation/{{Histeria}}'', the host of the ''Great Blunders in History'' segment was named Sarah Coopersmithfitzwarengoldenheimerstein.
14* According to ''WesternAnimation/HouseOfMouse'', the full name of Panchito from ''WesternAnimation/TheThreeCaballeros'' is Panchito Romero Miguel Junipero Francisco Quintero González III.
15** The name is explained [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XsfznLzVWI in song]]. Romero is from his father's best man, Miguel is from his father, Junipero is from his mom's favorite brother and Francisco Quintero is from the minister who married his parents.
16** ''WesternAnimation/LegendOfTheThreeCaballeros'' uses almost the same name, except leaving "Junipero" out for some reason.
17** In 1940s comics, his full name was originally given as El [[HaveAGayOldTime Gayo]] José Francisco Sandro de Lima y la Loma Pancho Allegre.
18** And in promotional materials for the original film, it was Panchito Pistoles, the one ''short'' name he's ever had.
19* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'': Selma Bouvier Terwilliger Hutz [=McClure=] thought that adding Nahasapeemapetilon was a stretch too far. Didn't stop her adding Stu later, though...
20** Also Apu Nahasapeemapetilon himself.
21--->'''Chief Wiggum''': Simpson, you're under arrest for the murders of Moe Syzlak and Apu Nahasa...pasa... Okay, just Moe.

28* The woman whose got constantly interrupted by Oxy Moron speaker in the mock commercial...thing in ''WesternAnimation/SheepInTheBigCity'' has a really long name: Smythe Robertson Johnson Weathermocker von Herbertson-Berski-Jackson-Greengrove.
29** In one of the minor sketches on the show, we have a man named Ivanovich Malkovich Ivanich Fiftyskitch Fallinaditch Thatsagoodpitch Romanov. But since he's friends with the female character, he tells her "There's no need to call me by my FORMAL name...Just call me Ivanovich...Malkovich Ivanich Fiftyskitch Fallsinaditch Thatsagoodpitch. You can leave out the 'Romanov' bit." To which the female character responds with "Oh, thank you Ivan...ahem...thanks!"
30*** When the female character's fiancee caught her with Ivanovich Malkovich Ivanich Fiftyskitch Fallsinaditch Thatsagoodpitch Romanov, he said he didn't believe to see her being that close to his best friend, to which Ivanovich Malkovich Ivanich Fiftyskitch Fallsinaditch Thatsagoodpitch Romanov said he wasn't the fiancee's best friend. The fiancee then referenced Romanov as someone he calls by the ''twenty'' first names.

33* In the ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' episode "One Krabs' Trash", Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen was the name of the guy who owned the soda drink hat. It isn't quite as long as others but it's long enough to not fit on his headstone.
34* ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'': In "[[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheKingOfOmashu The King of Omashu]]", Aang gives the alias "Bonzu Pippinpaddleopsicopolis III" to a city guard whilst disguised as an old man.

Mung Daal believed it brings bad luck to call the game by anything other than its full name. In the book that gives each episode's title at the beginning, everything before "Big Ball" is written in small print that turns it into UnreadablyFastText.
36* ''WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce'' had a milder example with [[ButtMonkey Carl]], whose full name is Carl ''Brutananadilewski''.

39* Watching ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' and seeing "Cherry Chevapravatdumrong" in the credits, you might be tempted to think that's a deliberate application of the trope, but no, it's the RealLife name of a Thai-American co-producer and story editor on the show.

50* While they weren't that extraordinarily long taken individually, the names of characters in the ''WesternAnimation/SchoolhouseRock'' installment on pronouns (Rufus Xavier Sarsaprilla, Rafaella Gabriela Sarsaprilla, Albert Andreas Armadillo) are repeated in full so many times in the song that they ''seem'' like this trope. Thank goodness for Pronouns!

52* The full name of the main character from ''WesternAnimation/ElTigre'', Manuel Pablo Gutierrez O'Brian Equihua Rivera.
53* Nibbler from ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}''. As he himself said ... "In the time it would take to pronounce one letter of my true name, a trillion cosmoses would flare into existence and sink into eternal night."
54** Also Father Changstein El-Gamal of the First Amalgamated Church (his name is to demonstrate that he is the product of all the dominant 20th-century religions).

58** When the Broflovskis move to UsefulNotes/SanFrancisco, all the other couples they meet have [[TheMaidenNameDebate different surnames]], and give hyphenated names to their children. In one case, the parents each already had two surnames and gave their child all four.
59* Played for laughs in the otherwise very serious episode "Alone Together" of ''WesternAnimation/Ben10AlienForce'', when Ben attempts to socialize with the [[ScaryDogmaticAliens Highbreed]] lord he is [[EnemyMine forced to team with]] by exchanging their names:
60-->'''Ben''': My name is Ben, Ben Tennyson. What's yours?\
