The Family in General

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/loud_family.png
A family consisting of one son and ten daughters. They frequently come into conflict with each other and clash a lot, but at the end of the day they really care for each other.

    A-D 
  • Aesop Amnesia: How many times have Lincoln and his sisters had to re-learn the same lesson? Justified by the fact that young children and teenagers often have trouble learning lessons.
  • Alliterative Family: All names begin with L, except Rita, but she's not one of the siblings.
  • Alliterative Name: Each of their names start with the letter L... and of course, they share the same surname Loud. Some of them take it to the next level by having their middle names also start with "L". Lincoln is the only one to downplay this, since his middle name is "Albert".
  • All-Stereotype Cast: All of the family enforces some sort of stereotype and have little depth beyond their default personalities (although they become less shallow as the series progresses):
  • All Women Love Shoes: Lori and Leni. Lori's shown to have a lot of shoes under her bed in "Get the Message", which she didn't even seem to be aware of, due to always kicking off her shoes at random times. Leni also has a lot of shoes in her closet, but she mostly wears sandals. Of course, not "all women", as some of the girls don't like shoes.
  • Alphabetical Theme Naming: All of their names start with L and, with the exception of Lincoln, have exactly four letters.
  • Ambiguously Christian: The Louds are implied to be Catholic, but the only hints of any religious denomination are the fact that they celebrate Christmas, Lincoln mentioning nuns to his sisters and (dream) brother Loni in "One of the Boys", and Lana praying for her pets in "Fool's Paradise".
  • Animal Motifs: Due to the original premise for the series, rabbits are commonly associated with the Loud family:
    • Rabbits are known for their explosive breeding, and there are 11 children in the Loud family.
    • Lynn Sr. has a tie of an ugly rabbit.
    • Lincoln's most prized possession is a stuffed rabbit he calls "Bun-Bun".
    • Lincoln's very appearance is rabbit-like, with his white hair, buck teeth, and large feet.
    • Luan has a pet rabbit named Gary.
    • For her sleepwear, Luan wears slippers with a rabbit design.
    • Lincoln once referred to quinoa as rabbit food.
    • "White Hare" features the original conceived premise via a dream Lincoln has.
    • A more subtle example; in the Loud family, it's very clear that it's the ladies who are in charge. Rabbits are matriarchal (female-dominated) animals.
  • Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: As the theme song puts it: "Duck, dodge, push and shove / This is how we show our love."
  • Badass Family: They definitely step up their game in The Loud House Movie, utilizing their respective talents to put up a good fight against Morag even as she's having a dragon under her control.
  • Beauty, Brains, and Brawn:
    • Lori, Leni, Lola and Lily are the beauties; the first three due to their interest in aesthetics and the latter due to her baby cuteness.
    • Luan, Lincoln, Lucy and Lisa are the brains; the former because she can also be strategic with her pranks, Lincoln because he's strategic, Lucy because she's a very good poet and the latter because she's a genius. Downplayed for Lana, who is very talented for her age when it comes to repair work, and Lily, who seems sort of smart for her age.
    • Luna, Lynn and Lana are the brawn; Luna because she's a rocker and Lynn and Lana because they like to roughhouse.
  • Berserk Button: "Sound of Silence" and "Making the Case" both show that using or ignoring them is not a smart move.
  • Big Ball of Violence: Whenever the chips are down, the sisters will resort to physical violence against each other in this form.
  • Big Sister Instinct: All of Lincoln's sisters (older and younger) have this towards him. When they find out he's being bullied, they all jump to his defense.
  • Big Word Shout: In "Slice of Life", they all slide down the banister shouting, "PIZZA!" with the exception of Lana, who slides down the banister saying, "Ooh, pizza, pizza, pizza."
  • Birds of a Feather: All of the siblings' crushes in "L is for Love" (except for Lori's and Lily's) have something in common with them:
    • Leni and Chaz both like fashion.
    • Luna and Sam both like music.
    • Luan and Benny both like comedy.
    • Lynn and Francisco both play sports.
    • Lincoln and Paige both like video games.
    • Lucy and Silas are both goths.
    • Lana and Skippy are both mechanics.
    • Lola and Winston both like being fancy.
    • Lisa and David both like chemistry.
  • Brainy Baby: Lori, Luna, Lynn, and Lucy were all naturally born with their respective associated outlets as their baby photos show. Luan also developed her Pie in the Face defense mechanism during her infancy as one of the comics shows.
  • Brother–Sister Team: Lincoln often teams up with either some, or all of his sisters when they have a common goal.
  • Bully and Wimp Pairing: The Extreme Doormat and Butt-Monkey Lincoln (wimp) often plays this role whenever paired with his bullies Lynn and Lola. After all, he can only withstand so much physical and psychological abuse before snapping.
  • Butt-Monkey: To put it bluntly, all of the siblings tend to endure their share of Amusing Injuries and other forms of slapstick.
  • Can't Take Criticism: The Louds are shown to be sensitive to Brutal Honesty when Lisa invents lie-detecting glasses to use against them in "House of Lies".
  • Character Development: While certain developments tend to not remain due to Status Quo Is God, a few do have stuck around and led to Story Arcs for each sibling.
    • Lori's golfing talents were emphasized in "Driving Ambition", which also gave insight to her life goals and built up her interest in getting to Fairway University, where most of her stories take place now. Also, several episodes like "Garage Banned" and "Can't Hardly Wait" followed the idea of Lori being capable of looking after herself once she left the Loud household, as preparation for eventual adulthood. Essentially, her character has significantly moved away from her initial characterization as a bossy Bratty Teenage Daughter who was mostly concerned with selfies and dating.
    • Leni's biggest status quo shakeup was at the end of "Shop Girl", where she is hired to work at Reininger's, giving her actual job responsibilities to tackle in spite of her lack of smarts. Another important development for her is taking over Lori's role as eldest sister in the household and its associated duties such as babysitting the younger siblings and becoming their driver, as seen in episodes like "Don't You Fore-get About Me", "The Boss Maybe" and "Driver's Dread".
    • Luna's primary development is her relationship with Sam, and, by association, the creation of the Moon Goats, which star in most Luna-centric episodes nowadays. Another common theme in her stories also relate to her avoiding becoming a sellout, abandoning her music career or just being honest with her bandmates, stuff that generally leads to band breakups.
    • Similar to Luna, Luan's relationship with Benny drives her to become part of her school's drama club, where she learns to become a better artist and performer.
    • While Lynn has not experienced a major shift in her sports-focused episodes, she has become generally less individualistic, which is reflected by her friends and teammates becoming more emphasized in her stories.
    • A very noticeable change in Lincoln's character is how his plans now tend to be made with the intent of helping his sisters. In earlier seasons, his plans were instead focused on helping HIMSELF out against them. This pretty much reflects how the show has evolved since the beginning, as Lincoln should have no reason at all to view his sisters as obstacles to his goals after everything he has gone through.
    • Lucy nowadays is almost always accompanied by the Mortician's Club (which she now presidents over alongside Haiku), subverting the notion that she's lonely and friendless, which was more common in earlier seasons.
    • Lana has become far more focused in animal welfare than she was in earlier seasons.
    • Once the most dreaded and antagonistic Loud, Lola's episodes tend to focus on how much of a flawed, self-serving person she is. Somewhat subverted in that she tends to suffer a lot from Aesop Amnesia and remains obnoxiously vain, but not to the extent of being actively malicious towards others.
    • While Lisa's role as a Mad Scientist that invents some new plot-driving contraption is still her bread and butter in terms of spotlight, there are a few that actually tackle her weak social skills, lack of maturity and all other potential negative aspects of being a superintelligent 4-5 year old that thinks they know better about how people work. Darcy's introduction was an important part of this, since it gave someone for Lisa to interact with that wasn't family, an adult or a robot.
    • Both Lynn Sr. and Rita eventually manage to achieve their dream jobs (chef and columnist respectively), although only after lots of patience and obstacles. Lynn Sr. also starts a new band to satisfy his eternal love for cowbells.
    • In regards to the parents' actual parental skills, Lynn Sr has become far closer to his eldest children, particularly Luna and Luan, the sisters that share the most in common with him in terms of likes, and Lori, whose presence he greatly misses. Meanwhile, Rita is more partial to the youngest Louds, especially Lucy and Lola.
  • Clingy Jealous Girl: All of the girls become this to each other in "Study Muffin" when they get into a fight over who will get to marry Hugh.
  • Color-Coded Characters: Each of the kids have their own theme colors. They are as follows:
    • Sky blue for Lori
    • Turquoise for Leni
    • Purple for Luna
    • Yellow for Luan
    • Red for Lynn
    • Orange for Lincoln
    • Black for Lucy
    • Blue for Lana
    • Pink for Lola
    • Green for Lisa
    • Lavender for Lily
  • Consistent Clothing Style: The siblings have a tendency to wear certain colours, which is helpful for distinguishing the Massive Numbered Siblings at the center of the story:
    • Downplayed for Lincoln. He wears an orange polo shirt every day and also owns orange swim trunks, an orange tie, and orange pyjamas. However, when he changes his clothes, he's often not wearing orange.
    • Lori tends to wear sky blue — it's the colour of her tank top, her golf shirt, her bikini, her winter coat, and several of her nighttime outfits.
    • Leni wears many seafoam green garments, including her dress, nightie, and swimsuit. Her winter outfit is mainly pink, although the hat and boots are also seafoam green.
    • Luna favours purple even more than the other characters favour particular colours — her everyday clothes are all different shades of purple (save her accessories) and if she's wearing different clothes for whatever reason, she's relatively likely to still be decked out entirely in purple.
    • Luan likes yellow clothes — her skirt and scrunchie are both yellow, as are her pyjamas and swimsuit.
    • Lynn's sports uniforms are invariably red with white highlights.
    • Lucy, being a goth, tends to dress in black, white, and grey.
    • Lola wears a lot of pink. In addition, both her dress and her nightie are floor-length.
    • Lisa seems to have a preference for light green. Her sweater is light green, as is her swimsuit, and in the winter, everything she wears is light green right down to her goggles.
    • Lily wears plenty of lavender, as shown on her blankie, on her winter attire, swimsuit, a T-shirt, a bonnet, and others. That said, her default look was just a diaper until Season 5, where she starts wearing lavender shorts.
  • Covert Pervert: All of the sisters, except for Lily, if "Study Muffin" is anything to go by. Even the youngest and the most reserved and innocent sisters wanted to see Hugh's butt.
  • Crush Blush: All of the girls blush upon seeing Hugh, minus baby Lily.
  • Cute Bruiser: With the exception of Lori (who's too cynical and promiscuous in appearance to be considered legitimately cute), all of the sisters are prone to getting into violent brawls whenever their senses turn hopeless.
  • Daddy's Girl: Luna, Luan, and Lynn all have closer relationships with their father than the rest of the siblings, sporting a similarly idealistic outlook. In Lynn's case, it helps that she's actually named after him.
  • A Day in the Limelight: Each of Lincoln's sisters have gotten several episodes focusing on them so far.
    • Lori: "Driving Miss Hazy" (with Leni), "Get the Message", "Driving Miss Hazy" (with Leni), "No Guts, No Glori", "Save The Date", "The Waiting Game", "A Fair to Remember", "Brawl in the Family" (with Leni), "Party Down", "Garage Banned", "Change of Heart" (with Leni), "Selfie Improvement", "City Slickers", "Fandom Pains" (with Lucy and Leni), "Missed Connection", "The Loudest Thanksgiving", "Driving Ambition", "Can’t Hardly Wait", "Senior Moment", "Schooled!"

    • Lola: "Sound of Silence", "Undie Pressure", "Toads and Tiaras" (with Lana), "A Tattler's Tale", "Patching Things Up" (with Lana), "Out of the Picture", "Read Aloud", "No Place Like Homeschool", "Gown and Out", "Tea Tale Heart" (with Lucy), "Community Disservice", "Sister Act" (with Lana), "A Star is Scorned" (with Lily), "Strife of the Party" (with Lana), "Diamonds Are For Never", "She's All Bat" (with Lucy), "Fam Scam", "Double Trouble" (with Lana), "The Last Laugh" (with Luan), "Prize Fighter", "Crown and Out" (with Rita), and "Love Stinks".

(with Lincoln and Lori), "Silence of the Luans" (with Luan), "Appetite for Destruction", "Small Blunder", "Sleepless in Royal Woods" (with Rita), and "Welcome to the Doll Heist". At first, she plays a reactive role, but then she starts being the protagonist beginning with "Any Given Sundae"; "Silence of the Luans" and "Appetite for Destruction" instead see her as the antagonist.
    • Of course, Lynn Sr. and Rita also have their focus episodes, although those only started being a thing after their faces were revealed in "11 Louds a Leapin" (save for one):
      • Together: "Suite and Sour", "Health Kicked", "Future Tense", and "Pipe Dreams".
      • Lynn Sr.: "Vantastic Voyage", "Lock 'n' Loud", "Job Insecurity", "Legends" (with Lincoln), "Anti-Social", "Breaking Dad" (with Lily), "Home of the Fave", "Cooked!", "Recipe for Disaster", "Feast or Family" (with Luan), "Dad Reputation" (with Luna), and "A Bug's Strife".
      • Rita: "A Novel Idea", "Rita Her Rights", "The Write Stuff" (with Lucy), "Write and Wrong", "Undercover Mom", and "Crown and Out" (with Lola).
  • Distinctive Appearances:
    • The youngsters of the family have circular heads, while the teenage sisters have bean-shaped heads.
    • The sisters' hair colors are a good indication of their varying masculinity and femininity. The brunettes are the Tomboys, while the blondes are the Girly Girls. The only exception to the latter case is blonde tomboy Lana, while the only exception to either of these rules is Lucy, who has black hair in accordance with her Gothic nature and is pretty in-between.
    • The younger siblings have three eyelashes, while the teenagers only have two. The only exceptions to either of these rules are Leni (who's 16 yet has three), Lisa (who has Black Bead Eyes), Lucy (who has yet to have had her eyes revealed), and Lincoln (who isn't depicted with visible eyelashes because he's a boy).
    • The younger siblings have round noses, while the teenagers have small, pointed noses. The only exception to either of these rules is Lynn (who has a round nose).
  • The Dog Bites Back: The April Fools' Day episodes center around the rest of the family living in fear of Luan's merciless pranking, and the actual pranks they have to go through just for her amusement. The final minutes will show how much the family can accomplish once they band together.
    • In "Fool's Paradise," after suffering a number of pranks, which Lynn Sr. helped set up, he and Lincoln use her own pranks against her, as Luan swears revenge against her father.
    • In "Fool Me Twice," after Luan used the stunt doubles Lynn Sr. hired to take the pranks for the family to humiliate them, she comes back home to find that they are moving on account that they are now the laughing stock of the town. Luan tearfully begs for them to stay in Royal Woods, only for it to be revealed that it was a joke, Luan praises them for it, and advises them to stop the moving truck headed for Florida, to which Lincoln informs that the truck only has her stuff in it and advises her to chase it down before it's too late.
  • Dysfunctional Family: Played with. They're a family of ten daughters and one son—totalling to eleven children—who get into frequent fights; the father is a Bumbling Dad; and Rita, Lincoln, and Lori tend to be the only ones who are able to keep the peace. In spite of all this, they usually can be considered more a Quirky Household than a truly dysfunctional family.

    F-L 
  • Family Theme Naming: Combines this with Alphabetical Theme Naming, each of their names start with the letter L. The Polish dub changes the first letter of each sibling's name (and nickname) to "H".
  • Fatal Flaw: The sisters' impulsiveness is their main problem in that it only leads to them fighting and getting punished for it.
  • Fight for the Last Bite: In "Slice of Life", they all argue and fight over the last slice of pizza.
  • Foodfight!:
    • In "A Tale of Two Tables", Lincoln's younger sisters have a food fight, then later, all eleven kids have one.
    • The licensed game "Food Fight" is about all of Lincoln's sisters (except Lily) throwing food at him.
    • Lucy and Lana have a food fight in "No Guts, No Glori".
    • The Louds briefly engage in one of these battles against the Casagrandes in "The Loudest Thanksgiving".
  • Food as Characterization: Each of Lincoln's sisters likes her eggs cooked in a different way (except the twins, who both like theirs deviled.) Some of these preferences don't say anything about their personalities, but two do, namely Luan who likes hers in a cube shape (or "funny side up") which ties into her quirky personality, and Lucy who likes hers burnt because she's a goth and therefore likes fire and the colour black.
  • Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: While they can all be very foolish, Lori, Lincoln, Lucy, and Lisa are usually the responsible ones, while Leni, Luan, Lynn, Lana, Lola, and Lily all tend to be foolish. In Leni's case however, despite being a teenager and the second-oldest of the siblings, she's (rather ironically) the least intelligent out of all of them, and she does and says a lot of stupid things, so she doesn't know any better anyway. That's the same case with Lily (well, almost), except she's a baby. As for Luna, well, she can be either foolish or responsible. She's got a good grip on reality and is very mellow and calm in her free time, but she completely drops both of those traits when she's rocking out.
  • Four-Girl Ensemble:
    • The four oldest sisters: The bossy if responsible and mostly level-headed Lori (intelligent), the kind, all loving fashionista Leni (feminine), the short haired, energetic rocker Luna (mannish) and the joking, laughing, prank loving comedian Luan (childish).
    • The four young sisters also fit: The dirt loving tomboy Lana (mannish), the pink wearing pageant girl Lola (feminine), the scientific genius Lisa (intelligent), and Lily, who's literally a baby (childish).
  • Four-Temperament Ensemble:
    • Sanguine: Leni, Luna, Luan, and Lana. All four of them are cheerful, easygoing and friendly.
    • Choleric: Lori, Lynn, and Lola. While good-natured and peaceful at the end of the day, all three of them are abrasive and the most inclined to anger.
    • Melancholic: Lucy and Lisa. Both are socially inept, but very in touch with reality, so much to the point of becoming dismissive towards idealism.
    • Phlegmatic: Lincoln and Lily. Both of them are calm and easygoing.
  • Friend to Bugs: Zigzagged. Leni dislikes bugs, especially spiders which she's afraid of. Lana sometimes makes friends with bugs, but sometimes eats them. All of Leni's siblings liked the tarantula in "Along Came a Sister", but Lola is sometimes repulsed by bugs.
  • Gasshole:
    • Lori's flatulence is a Running Gag.
    • Lynn loves giving Dutch ovens.
    • Lincoln can fart on cue, as seen in "A Tale of Two Tables," "Space Invader," and "Roughin' It".
    • According to Lola in "Brawl in the Family", Lana often sleep-farts so loudly that it blocks the sound of snoring.
    • Lola herself won the family burping contest in "Come Sale Away".
    • Lily farts a lot and sometimes burps.
  • Gender Bender: In "One Of The Boys", the sisters all become boys, while Lincoln himself becomes a girl later on... somehow. After Lincoln escapes the Alternate Universe in the episode, he briefly becomes a female version of himself named Linka. It was later revealed the whole thing was just a bad dream.
    • Lori as Loki, Leni as Loni, Luna as Luke, Luan as Lane, Lucy as Lars, Lana as Leif, Lola as Lexx, Lisa as Levi and Lily as Leon.
    • Lynn shares the same name as her male counterpart (Lynn is actually a unisex name). In fact, Boy Lynn is pretty much the same as Girl Lynn.
  • Genki Girl:
    • Leni has a happy, perky personality.
    • Luna is very enthusiastic, especially when rocking out.
    • Luan is also happy-go-lucky and wants to make other people happy too.
    • Lynn is active and quite dynamic.
    • While Lily is not as active due to being a baby, she's still quite a jolly baby and active as far as babies go.
  • Gibberish of Love: All of the girls babble upon seeing Hugh, minus baby Lily. Lincoln does it himself upon seeing his Hot Teacher.
  • Girl Posse: The episode "Sitting Bull" shows that Lori, Leni, Luna, and Luan share a rare sibling example of this trope, as they claim to have a reputation as Royal Woods' best babysitters ever, with Lori, the Lovable Alpha Bitch, being The Leader, courtesy of being the eldest.
  • Girls Love Chocolate: The sisters are all huge chocoholics, as revealed in the episode "Lincoln Loud: Girl Guru".
  • Girly Bruiser: Lori, Leni, Lucy, Lola, and Lily - the most traditionally feminine sisters - are not above getting in touch with their physically aggressive side should their hope despair.
  • Gleeful and Grumpy Pairing: With Leni, Luan, Lynn, Lana, and Lily as the Gleefuls, and Lori, Lucy, Lola, and Lisa as the Grumpys. Luna is somewhere in between, though.
  • Got Volunteered: In the episode "Future Tense", the siblings are forced by their parents to engage in extracurricular positions out of their taste to compete with the Yates family, much to their reluctance.
  • Greed: The main vice of the Loud kids, especially in the episode "It's a Loud, Loud, Loud, Loud House", where they fight tooth and nail for a stash of money they believe is hidden somewhere in the house.
  • Group Hug: These happen a lot between Lincoln and his sisters at the end of the day.
  • Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: All the blonde sisters are nice and friendly, although Lori and Lola have a mean side too.
  • Iconic Item: Most of the sisters (except Lynn, who has too many sports items to count) own a specific something that is most commonly associated with their personality:
    • Lori - Her phone
    • Leni - Her sunglasses
    • Luna - Her guitar
    • Luan - Her ventriloquist dummy, her whoopee cushion, and her pies
    • Lucy - Her poetry and Edwin bust
    • Lana - Her wrench, her pet frog, and her red cap.
    • Lola - Her tiara and her toy car
    • Lisa - Her science experiments
    • Lily - Her blankie
  • Jerkass Ball: Lincoln or his sisters sometimes grasp it for the sake of the plot. Luckily enough, it usually leads to a Jerkass Realization, and before long, their conflict is resolved.
  • Jerkass Realization: Sometimes, like in "Heavy Meddle" and "Cereal Offender", the girls will realize what insane jerks they've been upon seeing how badly their behavior affected Lincoln, and they'll try to make it up to him.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Aside from Leni, Luna, Lucy, Lana, and Lily, who are usually nice to Lincoln, albeit with their limits, all of the sisters are this to different degrees, often screwing Lincoln over but still caring about him. In fact, the aforementioned nice sisters' shocking tendency to harass him are mostly done out of peer pressure and rarely on their own.
  • Karma Houdini: Sometimes, the sisters get away scot-free with their vexatious antics towards Lincoln. The episode "Study Muffin" is a good example, in which their obsessive crush on his tutor Hugh deteriorates his academia, and the sisters don't receive any punishment.
  • Kiddie Kid: Luan and Lynn could regularly be considered this based on their childish behavior for their ages. Lincoln too in a Downplayed sense since he still owns a stuffed rabbit toy that he cares deeply for. However, the older and more mature sisters are not above joining in on the fun with their younger siblings, due to the fact that they're still kids nevertheless.
    • The ending of "A Tale of Two Tables" is a good example of this, where all eleven children participate in a food fight.
    • Another good example is the episode "Snow Bored", where all the Loud kids, including the older siblings, are overjoyed over school being cancelled and decide to play in the snow.
  • Large Ham: Their surname is Loud for a reason, and that's because they're all hammy in their own ways, with Lori, Luna, Luan, Lynn, and Lola being contenders for being the hammiest.
  • Likes Older Men: If their crush on Hugh in "Study Muffin" is anything to go by, the Loud sisters are not above fantasizing over older men.
  • Limited Wardrobe: They nearly always wear the same outfits.
  • Lost Voice Plot: In "Spell it Out", all the sisters lose their voices except Lucy.
  • Love Interests: Lily, being a baby, is the only one who hasn't had a love interest (unless you count her teddy bear). Lori's got Bobby (with Clyde and Carl having had crushes on her), Leni's got Chaz, Scott, the boy with the cowlick, and currently Gavin (plus Chase in The Really Loud House), Luna has Sam (plus Liam having a crush on her in The Really Loud House), Luan has Benny, Lynn has Francisco and Dexter, Lincoln has Ronnie Anne, Cristina, Paige, and his four dates from "Dance Dance Resolution" (plus Charlie and later Zia in The Really Loud House), Lucy has Rocky and Silas, Lana has Skippy, Lola has Winston, and Lisa has David. Plus, all the sisters sans Lily also have a crush on Hugh, and Lincoln similarly has a crush on Ms. DiMartino (Luna has also indicated she finds Ms. DiMartino "smokin'").

    M-R 
  • Massive Numbered Siblings: Eleven of them in total.
  • Meaningful Name:
    • They're a family of Large Hams, hence the surname, Loud.
    • Lincoln was named after the street Chris Savino grew up on, East Lincoln Avenue. also delivered by the First Lady.
    • Lori's name means "laurel", referring to her image. It also sounds like "lorry", a type of vehicle, and she's the only Loud sister with a driver's license (until Leni got hers).
    • Leni is the German diminutive of Helene (Helen) and Magdalena (Magdalene). These names are associated with beauty (Helen of Troy), or honorable women (Saint Helena, Saint Mary Magdalene). She's also named after Lenny from Of Mice and Men, a character who's not very intelligent but very kind and rather gentle, at least when he's not harming people by accident. Interestingly enough, Leni was much stronger in her earliest designs, and the more notable "Leni"s are German Olympic athletes: Helene "Leni" Junker, Magdalena "Leni" Lohmar, and Leni Schmidt. There's also Leni Riefenstahl, one of the first female film directors in history, but there's a reason why people tend not to mention her.
    • Luna's name is Latin for "moon", which also comes from the Pink Floyd album, "Dark Side of the Moon", referring to her rock star image.
      • In the Polish dub, Luna's name is changed to Harmonia, with the nickname "Harma", derived from "harmony", an appropriately musical name if not entirely in keeping with her primary style of music.
    • Lucy shares the same name as Lucy Westenra, a character from Bram Stoker's Dracula novels who becomes the book's first victim. Lucy herself is enamored by death and vampires, and, as of the end of the Dracula novel, both characters also share sleeping in coffins as a common trait. Her name also has an ironic quality, as it means "light", yet she is inexorably tied to darkness, morbidity and the color black.
    • Lily's name means "flower", which shows she's a young bloomer.
  • Minor Injury Overreaction: The sisters occasionally have this reaction when Lincoln hurts himself, treating a paper cut and a thumb cramp as a major medical emergency in "Heavy Meddle" and "One of the Boys" respectively.
  • Mr. Vice Guy: The Louds all have their share of character flaws, but are generally good people regardless.
  • Mysterious Middle Initial: While Lincoln's middle name is "Albert", most of the sisters' middle names start with "L", but have yet to be revealed. An Instagram post claims the parents refer to all of their kids with "Marie" as their middle names when in trouble (yes, even Lincoln), to the point that Leni thinks Lori's middle name really is Marie.
  • Nice Mean And In Between:
    • Nice — Leni, Luna, Lincoln, Lana, and Lily. They are all consistently very nice and non-confrontational, with the occasional Out-of-Character Moment.
    • Mean — Lori, Lynn, and Lola. None of them are completely nasty, but they are the most abrasive, mischievous, or calculating/self-serving of the bunch.
    • In-Between — Luan (mostly nice, but sometimes pulls mean pranks), Lucy (moody but friendly), and Lisa (who sometimes does questionable experiments on her siblings and can be very socially awkward and blunt, but is still nice deep down and sometimes not so deep down).
    • This also happens with the middle children of the family: Lincoln (Nice), Lynn (Mean), and Lucy (In-Between).
  • No Knees: Luna, Luan, and Lynn aren't depicted with a line drawn on their knees as opposed to Leni and Lori, making their legs look noodly and enforcing them to walk in a jerky manner. Although this is averted or zigzags between shots.note 
  • No-Neck Chump: Excluding Lincoln and Lucy, none of the youngsters of the family are drawn with visible necks (although neither are most of the other recurring kid characters).
  • No Sense of Personal Space: Although it tones down as the series progresses, sometimes Lincoln's sisters don't know what "Leave me alone" means and persist to disrespect his privacy. Examples of their exceptional harassment include ganging up on him for being the only boy in the family and getting their noses all up in his relationship with Ronnie Anne.
  • Not Allowed to Grow Up: The series seems to rely on a Floating Timeline, as none of the siblings are shown to have aged despite the many years that have passed in-universe. Case in point, three April Fool's Day episodes have happened and the siblings are still shown as their average selves; not only that, but a flashback plays in "April Fool's Rules" of the many April Fools on which Luan has pulled her prank-a-thons, and still no one has aged. Subdued by Season 5, where the characters move up both an age and a grade level (Lori also finally going to college).
  • Not So Above It All: The more rational siblings such as Lori, Lincoln, and Lisa often join in the fun with their other siblings. They are still kids, after all.
  • Odd Name Out: Lincoln's the only one of the eleven kids to not have a four-letter name, though it can be shortened to "Linc". Also, Lynn's the only one of the eleven kids to have one syllable in her name (Lincoln and the rest of their sisters have two syllables in their names). And Luan's the only one whose name is emphasized on the second syllable.
  • Older Than They Look: Lynn, Luan, and Luna are 13, 14, and 15 respectively, but could easily pass for kids around Lincoln's age, since they have childlike appearances in their own rights. As opposed to respective 16-and-17-year-olds Leni and Lori, none of the trio have visible breasts. Additionally, Lynn is around the same size as 8-year-old Lucy and 11-year-old Lincoln, and, along with Luna, has freckles, while Luan wears braces, has a high-pitched, little girl voice, and is a Kiddie Kid.
  • Out of Focus:
    • While none of the Loud siblings have completely lost their importance to the show (especially Lincoln), Season 3 has really taken a toll on Lincoln's spotlight and fluctuating between who gets to have the Day in the Limelight. Compare the first two seasons, where usually, either he was the main character, or the entire family owned the episode, and you'll notice how inconsistent the spotlight has become. To drive it home, Season 4 had an entire story arc focusing on the Casagrandes, further putting the Louds into obscurity.
    • Lynn only has one focus episode during Season 2. This is inverted on Season 3, where she gets up to 4 of them, making her one of the more focused Louds of the season.
    • Luna had it worse than Lynn since her single focus episode of Season 2 ("L is for Love") only had her implied as the protagonist. Season 3 gives her 3 episodes, including a special.
  • Ping Pong Naïveté: You'd think that by now, Lincoln and his sisters would know better, but unfortunately, due to varying continuity, this is not always the case. The earlier seasons in particular portray them at the crossroads of protectively caring for Lincoln to showing no concern for his well-being the next minute. As well as this, they fluctuate from independently engaging in their own age-appropriate maturity to forming a Brother–Sister Team that naively eavesdrops on their parents, regardless of their default experience.
  • Pint-Sized Powerhouse: All of the younger sisters are usually shown to be just as strong and tough as the older siblings (in some particular cases, they even manage to overpower them) in spite of the large gaps in size and age between them.
  • Plenty of Blondes: Five Loud sisters are blonde (Lori, Leni, Lana, Lola, and Lily). However, this is actually justified due to genetics.
  • Plot-Relevant Age-Up: Season 5 brings the series' Floating Timeline to an end by aging up the siblings by one year.
  • Practically Different Generations: Among the 11 kids, there's a 16 year age gap between Lori, the eldest, and Lily, the youngest. Although, the kids are pretty evenly spread apart, so most of them have at least one similarly-aged sibling (for example, the five oldest kids are only a year apart in age each).
  • Precocious Crush: All of the younger sisters (sans Lily) developed a crush on Lincoln's tutor Hugh in "Study Muffin".
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: Some of the siblings are more fiery or serene than others. In general, the order from most red to most blue out of all the family members is: Lynn, Luan, Luna, Lola, Lynn Sr., Leni, Lily, Lana, Lori, Lincoln, Rita, Lisa, and Lucy. Interestingly, the older siblings are generally more hot-headed than the younger ones. Nevertheless, some specific examples can be elaborated.
    • The twins, Lana and Lola. In an interesting twist, however, the prim and proper, girly Lola is the red oni, while the dirty and rough Lana is the blue oni. Lola has a Hair-Trigger Temper and can be quite the manipulative psychopath on her worst days, while Lana is actually quite calm and relaxed, especially by the standards of the Loud siblings.
    • Of the youngest siblings, the near stoic, scientifically driven Lisa (blue) and the emotional baby Lily (red). Lisa also plays blue oni to her more socially outgoing friend, Darcy.
    • Luan is the red oni to Lucy's blue oni. Both are interested in the performance arts, but Luan is a cheerful comedian while Lucy is a Goth.
    • Luna is also the red to Lucy's blue. Both wear dark clothing and have "edgy" fields of interest. But Luna is an energetic, aspiring rockstar, while Lucy is The Stoic and a gloomy goth girl.
    • Of the middle children, Passionate Sports Girl Lynn is the red oni to both The Everyman Lincoln and The Stoic Lucy, though Lincoln is the red to Lucy's blue by comparison.
    • Between the girliest sisters, hot-headed Lola is the red to Nice Girl Leni's blue. Similarly, on the tomboyish side, Competition Freak Lynn is the red to laid-back Lana's blue.
    • To a minor extent, Leni could be considered a red oni relative to Lori's blue out of the oldest sisters. Lori is more rational and level-headed (though she does have a bit of a temper at times, though not as bad as fellow girly girl Lola's), while Leni is less intelligent and can do some very silly things as a result of this.
  • Running Gag: All of the siblings have at least one running joke associated with them.
    • Lori: saying "Literally", fartingnote , and sometimes her romance with Bobby is played for comedy.
    • Leni: missing the point of things, being clumsy, and saying "Like" (though this last one currently isn't brought up anymore).
    • Luna: referencing songs and using slang like, "Dude", "Dudette", "Bro", and "Brah".
    • Luan: her jokes and pranks.
    • Lynn: turning mundane things into sports and having unusual superstitions.
    • Lincoln: making plans with long names (which end in him lampshading them) and reading comics in his underwear.
    • Lucy: saying "Sigh", suddenly appearing, and occasionally her poetry is treated as a joke.
    • Lana: her gross habits.
    • Lola: telling on people.
    • Lisa: doing wacky experiments.
    • Lily: pooping her diaper and/or saying "Poo-poo".

    S-Z 
  • Savvy Guy, Energetic Girl: The Only Sane Man Lincoln is the Savvy Guy, while the Genki Girl sisters (Leni, Luna, Luan, and Lynn) primarily play the role as the Energetic Girls whenever paired with him.
  • Share Phrase: "Dang it." The phrase itself is said a total of twelve times in "Homespun."
  • Shipper on Deck:
    • All ten of Lincoln's sisters ship him and Ronnie Anne together.
      • They've suggested Lincoln to kiss her when they find out his bully is a girl, and hounding Lincoln the instant he gets home to find out if she asked him out to the Sadie Hawkins dance.
      • Lori has a vested interest in making sure he and Ronnie Anne get along since she's dating Ronnie Anne's older brother. In fact, Bobby actually once broke up with Lori after discovering that Lincoln had (albeit unintentionally) hurt Ronnie Anne's feelings—Bobby explained that he couldn't bring himself to go out with someone who's related to someone who hurt the feelings of someone he's related to.
      • Luan invites Ronnie Anne on April Fool's Day to throw a pie in Lincoln's face but she throws it in Luan's face instead. After the two walk off on a date, Luan says "she's a keeper."
    • Also, Lori and Leni both act cheerful over Luna going on a date with Sam in "Racing Hearts", acting very supportive of their relationship throughout.
  • Short Teens, Tall Adults: Most of the teenage sisters are half a head shorter than their parents. While Lynn, Luan, and maybe Luna's (13, 14, and 15 respectively) cases can perhaps be justified in that they haven't finished developing yet or are late bloomers, Leni and Lori (16 and 17 respectively) seem to have exited puberty solidly, judging by their visible bust and womanly voices, yet their parents tower over them. What's more aggravating is that this changes between shots.
  • Sibling Rivalry: Despite loving each other, they do squabble. The theme even mentions pushing and shoving.
  • Sibling Yin-Yang: All of them clash in some way, shape or form, though it's most notable with the roommates;
    • Lori and Leni: Both are beautiful blonde girls who care about fashion and beauty passionately and play the Valley Girl stereotype straight, but Lori is rather bossy and abrasive, yet also quite insightful from time to time, while Leni is sweet but incredibly dense. Lori has also shown a bit of tomboy side, as she acts assertive and dominant to her younger siblings, farts when no one's around, and is somewhat of a Gamer Chick; Leni on the other hand rarely has exhibited any form of masculinity. Lori is also clearly smarter than Leni, who, needless to say, isn't smart at all.
    • Luna and Luan: While both are brown-haired, skirt-wearing, energetic, hammy, and kind-hearted girls who are Older Than They Look, have showbiz aspirations, and even have practically indifferent names sans the letters being rearranged, Luna is rather mellow most of the time when not rocking out while Luan is always her goofy, jokey self. Luan is also clearly the more mischievous of the two, albeit mostly in an Innocently Insensitive kind of way, while Luna is mostly a nice person.
    • Lynn and Lucy: The latter is a mellow, seldom-active Goth who her siblings barely notice, while the former is a ruckus raising Passionate Sports Girl who makes her presence felt.
    • Lana and Lola: The most obvious case, with beauty obsessed Girly Girl Lola clashing with dirt and grime obsessed Tomboy Lana. Less obviously, Lola is the Token Evil Teammate of the Loud family, whereas Lana is an Animal Lover, a complete inversion of what you'd expect from those tropes.
    • And finally super-intelligent-but-stoic Lisa is paired with the innocent and cheerful (if also brainy) baby Lily.
  • Sick Episode: All of them got the flu (in addition to their parents and pets) in "One Flu Over the Loud House".
  • Smart Jerk and Nice Moron: Lori and Leni, respectively. The former is the Only Sane Woman of the sisters, but she often exhibits a colossally bossy attitude towards her younger siblings (with the possible exception of Lily), while the latter is a Kindhearted Simpleton who's rarely if ever truly malicious.
  • Stalker with a Crush: All of the girls to Hugh (except baby Lily) in "Study Muffin", who followed him around because they had crushes on him.
  • Sweet Tooth: All of them seem to like candy.
    • Lola in particular loves all dessert and sugary things.
    • All the sisters love chocolate.
    • Lincoln has expressed disappointment at not getting dessert in "A Tale of Two Tables" and wants full-sized candy bars in "Tricked!".
    • Lana has schemed with Lola to get more candy in "Tricked!".
    • All the younger sisters have been shown to love cookies in "Baby Steps".
  • Team Mom: "Sitting Bull" reveals that Lori, Leni, Luna, and Luan have a reputation of being the best babysitters in all of Royal Woods, taking good care of children and entertaining them.
  • Tender Tomboyishness, Foul Femininity: Luna and Lana are the most tomboyish sisters, with them being an aspiring rockstar and a Wrench Wench, respectively, also two of the nicest. While Lori and Lola are a Big Sister Bully who loves boybands and nailpolish, and a Bratty Half-Pint pagent queen, respectively. On the other hand, it's inverted with Leni and Lynn. The former is a major fashionista and the most feminine person in the show, but she's also a Kind Hearted Simpleton. Lynn, on the other hand, is a Jerk Jock whose moments of kindness tend to be few and far in between.
  • Teens Love Shopping: Zigzagged for the teenage sisters. Lori and especially Leni love the mall, while Luna, Luan, and Lynn like it, but not as much as other things they like.
  • Tomboy and Girly Girl:
    • They all have varying amounts of stereotypical masculinity and femininity. This is best exemplified in "In Tents Debate", where the girly-girls (Lori, Leni, Lucy, Lola, and Lily) want to go to the beach, while the tomboys (Luna, Luan, Lynn, Lana, and Lisa) want to go to an amusement park.
    • Another good indicator is hair color. Those who take after their mom (blonde) tend to be more "feminine", while those who take after their dad (brunette) are more "tomboyish". The only exceptions to this rule are the blonde Tomboy Lana and the black-haired romanced-obsessed Goth Lucy.
  • Tomboy with a Girly Streak: The Tomboy sisters (Luna, Luan, Lynn, Lana, and Lisa) are not completely devoid of a "girly" side. They join in on the Squee with their Girly Girl sisters upon discovery of Ronnie Anne's affection for Lincoln, can be quite boy-crazy, watch a soap opera called Dream Boat about which they discuss character ships, love chocolate, and will wear dresses for special occasions like Lucy's performance at the Royal Woods Theater.
  • Too Hungry to Be Polite: In one episode, when the siblings are served large quantities of spaghetti for dinner, they eat it like pigs.
  • Town Girls:
  • Trademark Favorite Food:
    • The family as a whole has pizza, to the point that the siblings would fight for the last slice.
    • Individually, Lynn Jr. loves meatball subs and spicy burgers while Lincoln loves Mac and Cheese bites.
  • Troubling Unchildlike Behavior: All of the younger sisters to an extent. Gothic Lucy is the most obvious case, but as for all of the others:
    • Lola has a surprisingly violent temper that borderlines on Ax-Crazy, causing her to become The Dreaded among the siblings.
    • Lisa is The Stoic who intentionally detaches herself from human emotions and tends to do some questionable things in the name of science.
    • Going by the comic "It's Just a Phase", Lily can be a NIGHTMARE at her worst.
    • Lana to a lesser extent, but her gross habits can cross this at times.
  • Tuckerization:
    • With the exception of Leni (who's named after Lennie Small from Of Mice and Men), all of Lincoln's sisters are named after those Chris Savino knows.
      • Lori, Luan, Lynn, Lana and Lisa are named after Chris Savino's five sisters (Savino's the ninth of ten children). Savino has confirmed however that there is no Write Who You Know involved and that none of the Loud girls have the personality of the Savino sister whose name they bear. invoked
      • Luna and Lola were named after Savino's two dachshunds (aka, "wiener dogs").
      • "Lucy" and "Lily" were names that Savino and his wife came up with in case they had any daughters (they have three sons, but no daughters).
    • Lincoln himself is named after E Lincoln Avenue, the street Savino grew up on.
  • The Ugly Guy's Hot Daughter: Lori and Leni. While Lynn Sr. was quite handsome in his youth, he's since lost his hair, gained some wrinkles, and gained weight. The big nose doesn't help his case either.
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: Lori and Leni, Lynn and Lucy, and Lana and Lola all have the most squabbles, but they're also the closest to each other.
  • You Are Grounded!: Their main discipline method meted out by their parents when things go horribly wrong.
  • Youthful Freckles: Luna, Lynn, and Lincoln all sport these, which makes sense since Rita was shown to have freckles in a flashback in "L is for Love".

The parents of Lincoln and his sisters.


  • Absurd Phobia: Mr. Loud has an irrational fear of Halloween.
  • Abusive Parents: Usually averted, but at times they have handled the Jerkass Ball regarding their children in the first three seasons, though not to the extent of Mr. and Mrs. Turner.
    • In "No Such Luck", they ban Lincoln from the house and force him to spend the entire night sleeping outside under the dumb assumption that he’s bad luck.
    • In "April Fools Rules", they allow Luan's siblings to lock her in a cage for the rest of the day. Granted, Luan did deserve punishment for her actions, but she didn't deserve one that cruel and extreme, as staying in that crate for the rest of the day would have caused her to starve and sleep uncomfortably.
    • In "Vantastic Voyage", Lynn Sr. makes Luan walk all the way home from school, and makes Lisa wear a saliva shield.
    • In "Read Aloud", Rita supports Lucy's idea of chaining Lola up in the attic.
    • At the end of "Fool Me Twice", they pull a very mean prank on Luan by threatening to move away from Royal Woods and leave her behind, only to reveal this itself as a prank moments later and prompt her to chase after the moving truck that contains nothing but her stuff. Had they actually proceeded, this could very well be considered child neglect; however, this action wasn't unjustified, as Luan had been performing absolutely sociopathic and violent pranks every April Fools Day.
  • Ace Pilot: Rita is shown to be an expert pilot in "Tripped!" and "The Write Stuff".
  • Adults Are Useless:
    • Both parents do have rules, but usually are too oblivious and absent-minded to notice when they are being broken.
    • In The Loud House Movie, they don't even seem to notice Lincoln as he's being mobbed by a group of people, is missing from the family photo taken in honor of the Loud sisters' accomplishments, and gets locked outside of Lynn Sr.'s restaurant (which they were in at the time).
  • Alliterative Name: Like his children, Lynn Sr.'s first and last name both start with "L".
  • Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Lori occasionally views them as such, which isn't uncommon for girls her age.
  • Ambiguously Bi: Lynn Sr. may be married to Rita, but he's been shown to have a thing for other men on occasion.
    • In "Study Muffin" from the main series, Mr. Loud joins the sisters in on stalking Hugh, although it's Played for Laughs. Since he's a bit of a Cloudcuckoolander and Bumbling Dad, it can be inferred that this was just him acting on bicurious impulse.
    • This is made even more obvious in "The Guy Who Makes You Fly" from The Really Loud House, where he and Leni's boyfriend Chase have a thing for each other, rollerblading, watching the clouds, and playing cowbell together. They even have a ridiculously lengthy ritual together, and Lincoln and Clyde even outright refer to them as in a love triangle with Leni. Lincoln and Clyde are forced to untangle the love triangle by introducing Lynn Sr. to Chase's dad, Chase Sr., and they end up having a similar bond.
  • Ascended Extra: In season one, their faces were completely obscured, and were there mostly to show that the Loud siblings did in fact have parents that watched over them, and were only central to the plot in "House Music" and "A Novel Idea." Season two onwards they play a much greater role in the show, and have even had a few episodes where they are the central focus, with their kids only being in a supportive role.
  • Big Ol' Eyebrows: Lynn Sr. sports these.
  • Birthday Episode:
    • In the animated series, "No Spoilers" focuses on Rita's birthday, and "Present Tense" focuses on Lynn Sr.'s.
    • In The Really Loud House, "The Macho Man With The Plan" is set during Lynn Sr.'s half-birthday.
  • Breakout Character: Both of them after their face reveal. Lynn Sr. in particular can rival his daughters with the amount of episodes he has starred in since then.
  • Bumbling Dad: Downplayed with Lynn Sr., who may be a bit childish at times, but so far hasn't really been shown to be downright stupid.
  • Butt-Monkey: Lynn Sr. It's not uncommon for him to get hurt or have some misfortune befall him.
  • Can't Take Criticism: Lynn Sr. has a habit of bursting into tears when his musical or culinary skills are disparaged.
  • Carpet of Virility: As seen in "Health Kicked", Lynn Sr. has a staggering amount of body hair, and is virile enough to have sired 11 kids.
  • Childish Tooth Gap: As seen in "Home of the Fave" and "Recipe for Disaster," Lynn Sr. had one when he was a child.
  • Cloudcuckoolander: While he's capable of acting like an adult, Lynn Sr. tends to behave like a manchild with quirky interests, a timid demeanor, and irrational fears.
  • Cool Teacher: Rita is shown to be this in "The Write Stuff" when she's in charge of the school writing club. She actively encourages her students to express their creativity, as opposed to Principal Huggins' teaching method, which is just them learning grammar and how to hold a pencil properly.
  • Cordon Bleugh Chef: Lynn Sr. is typically an excellent cook, but sometimes he likes to do experimental dishes that are so bad they send his wife and kids (even Lana) running to the bathroom. Examples include his cabbage casserole from "House of Lies" and ca-Lynn-mari from "Dream a Lily Dream".
  • A Day in the Limelight: Lynn Sr. had a big role in "House Music", while Rita had one of her own in "A Novel Idea". "Health Kicked" focuses entirely on them. "Pipe Dreams" centers on Lynn Sr. and Rita as they convert their walk-in closet into their own secret bathroom. "Anti-Social" revolves around Lynn Sr. becoming addicted to the social media, and the family's attempt to wean him off it. "Rita her Rights" has Rita committing a number of small crimes and willingly performing forced community service as an excuse to get some alone time away from her rambunctious family. "Breaking Dad" revolves around Lynn Sr. wanting to win Lily back from Mr. Grouse. "Home of the Fave" is yet another episode that centers around Lynn Sr., in which he tries to give his kids equal attention after Lola suspects that he's playing favorites due to witnessing his pun-filled trip with Luan at the grocery store. "The Write Stuff" focuses on Rita being in charge of the school writing club.
  • Deadpan Snarker: While Rita definitely fits the bill, Lynn Sr. himself can have a few moments every now and again.
  • The Dentist Episode: In one of the podcasts, Rita gives Lynn Sr. a dental appointment.
  • Depending on the Writer: Whether they are good parents to the Loud children or... um... not, can vary by episode. Deep down they love and care for all 11 of their children and try their best to support them, but sometimes they can be too oblivious to know when trouble is being caused or not always around to support the kids. Even worse though is that their parenting methods can dip into abusive territory, like when they locked Lincoln out of the house for the entire night in "No Such Luck" and locked Luan in a crate as punishment in "April Fools Rules".
  • Didn't Think This Through: While Lynn Sr.'s plan in "It's A Loud, Loud, Loud, Loud House" was admittedly quite clever, he didn't anticipate just how much of a mess the kids would make before finally learning to work together, as Rita lampshaded.
  • Dirty Coward: Normally averted, but in "Brawl in the Family", they definitely fit the bill by not stepping in to settle the sisters' fighting.
  • Doom It Yourself:
    • According to Lincoln in "Homespun", they're insistent on fixing everything in the Loud House by themselves. Unfortunately, that, combined with the pets and kids, is why the Loud House is a bit of a disaster.
    • In "The Macho Man with the Plan" from The Really Loud House, Lynn Sr. spends the day before his half-birthday trying to clean and repair Vanzilla. Unfortunately, as he himself admits, he's not a good mechanic and ends up disassembling a good part of it, all just to replace the windshield wiper fluid.
  • Dreadful Musician: Lynn Sr., to the point where the rest of the family share early warnings before he starts a "jam session" with his friends.
  • Early-Installment Weirdness: Their full faces were never shown in all of season one, which often limited the extent of their interactions with the kids. Since their full reveal, this no longer is a limitation to any of the scenes they share with their kids, and are now more often directly involved in their usual antics.
  • Exhausted Eye Bags: Both have these. Having 11 children, it only makes sense, although seeing as they don't act tired, it could be because they have the same genetic trait that gave Lincoln eye bags.
  • The Faceless: Their faces were hidden throughout all of Season 1, though Lynn Sr.'s eyes are seen thrice: once via the rearview mirror in one of Lincoln's flashbacks in "The Sweet Spot"; in "The Loudest Yard", with the rest of his face hidden by his mask, and in "April Fool's Rules", with the rest of him covered up in bubble wrap.
    • His full figure can be seen (in silhouette) at the end of "It's a Loud, Loud, Loud, Loud House".
    • As of "Cereal Offender", Rita's full face can be seen. Albeit in an Imagine Spot/flashback with a mud mask on and her eyes are covered by cucumbers.
    • The climax of "11 Louds a Leapin'" finally reveals their full faces, and for the most part, their faces remain uncovered across the rest of the series, barring "Brawl in the Family", "Making the Grade", and "Love Birds" (due to being aired Out of Order from the intended production run).
  • Feminine Mother, Tomboyish Daughter: As a woman of roughly average levels of femininity, Rita both plays this trope straight with her more tomboyish daughters, Luna, Luan, Lynn Jr, Lana and Lisa, while also inverting it with her more feminine ones, Lori, Leni, Lucy, Lola and arguably Lily.
  • Gag Nose: Lynn Sr.'s nose is rather long and protrudes straight outward.
  • Girly Girl with a Tomboy Streak: Rita wears salmon pink, has long, golden hair, enjoys pedicures, does shopping, and is a passionate writer, but she also has an aggressive side, is a bit of a craftsman, a dental assistant, and can really fly a plane.
  • Good Parents: Most of the time anyway. Mr. and Mrs. Loud love all their kids and will praise them when they do something good, but will firmly punish them when they need it. However, they do have moments where they come off more as bad or even borderline abusive, like in "No Such Luck".
  • Gosh Dang It to Heck!: Ever since his childhood, Lynn Sr. has had a habit of using the term "ding-dang" to describe things that upset him, culminating in the phrase "Ding-dang darn it!" when truly frustrated.
  • Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: Rita has blonde hair and is a loving mother.
  • Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow: Lynn Sr. has thinning hair, although he did have a full head of it when he was younger.
  • Happily Married: Rita and Lynn Sr. are happy together and rarely get into disputes; even if they do, they usually make up.
  • Hartman Hips: Rita has these, being wider than her head, despite the relative abstraction of the art style — though, considering that she gave birth to eleven kids, this is probably a given. In flashbacks such as the ones in "L is For Love" and the movie's intro, it's shown that even in her youth she still had some pretty large hips, though not as large as she does now. Her hips are so wide, that Lincoln was able to tape a comic book to her butt, and it didn't even take up the entire space.
  • Hypocritical Humor: In "A Tale of Two Tables", Lynn Sr. and Rita reserve a grown-ups dinner table for themselves and the teenage sisters, while limiting Lincoln to the Dreaded Kids' Table along with his younger siblings. The irony here is that they themselves are not above childish behavior, plus Leni, Luan, and Lynn are characteristically immature as Lincoln, Lucy, and Lisa aren't.
  • I Was Quite a Looker: Lynn Sr. is shown in a few flashbacks to have had a full head of hair and to have been in better shape. Naturally, as any father of that many kids would, he's lost some of his hair and gained some weight.
  • Idiot Ball: The Loud parents can sometimes be inattentive to their children's misbehaviors, thus not giving them the punishment they deserve. Or sometimes, they are aware, but don't punish them for some reason. In "April Fool's Rules", Luan goes on an insanity spree and threatens the entire family with borderline deadly pranks, but do Rita and Lynn Sr. discipline her for it? No sir-ee! Well, at least until "Fool Me Twice", however.
  • Illness Blanket: In "One Flu Over the Loud House", Rita's the only sick Loud to be wrapped in a blanket.
  • Inelegant Blubbering: Just like Lori, Lynn Sr. is prone to breaking down sobbing in undignified fashion as shown in episodes like "Garage Banned" and "Can't Hardly Wait."
  • Ink-Suit Actor: Lynn Sr. is essentially an animated caricature of Brian Stepanek (who also plays him in live-action), especially the bald portion of his head.
  • In Touch with His Feminine Side: Lynn Sr. regularly does the cooking for his family, which is traditionally considered a feminine chore. In addition, he cries openly (sometimes in the most undignified of ways) and watches The Dream Boat.
  • Jerkass Ball: They very much pick this up whenever they dip into the Abusive Parents territory in the early seasons, with "No Such Luck" being the most prominent example.
  • Like Father, Unlike Son: Lincoln admitted that he and his father don't really share many interests outside "Legends of The Hidden Temple".
  • Like Parent, Like Child: Several of the kids' traits clearly come from either of them, but it's mostly Lynn Sr.
    • On Lynn Sr's side:
      • Lori has his love of golf, as well as his proneness to Inelegant Blubbering.
      • Leni inherited his fear of spiders.
      • Luna has his love of music, especially his idolization of Mick Swagger (and a fascination with British culture).
      • Luan has his cooking skills, as well as the same cheesy sense of humor.
      • Lynn Jr. has his love of sports, if him weeping over not getting the sports channel is anything to judge. She also has his baking skills, as shown in "Racing Hearts" where she and Scoots bake the best apple pie in the competition.
      • Lincoln shares his cooking skills, overactive imagination in reaction to horror movies, and his adoration for the Nickelodeon show "Legends of The Hidden Temple". Also, despite them both being the only two men in the house, they both often tend to bring out their more feminine sides, although Lincoln does this somewhat more than Lynn Sr.
      • Lola has his self-centeredness.
    • On Rita's side:
      • Leni inherited her extraordinary craftsmanship skills.
      • As shown in "Listen Out Loud", Rita also has a thing for telling jokes like Luan.
      • Lincoln has Rita's exasperation and sensibleness when having to deal with the Loud sisters.
      • Lucy has an interest in literature like her. Rita even mentions that she used to have a crush on a lumberjack from a romance novel, similar to Lucy's crush on Edwin.
      • Lana is a good handy-woman, which she got from Rita.
    • Lincoln seems to have inherited his tendency to be quick to jump to conclusions from both of them (such as Lynn Sr. in "Sleuth or Consequences" and Rita in "Cereal Offender").
  • Limited Wardrobe: Like the kids, they always wear the same outfits.
  • Lovable Coward: Lynn Sr. is a nice man and a bit timid.
  • Mama Bear: In "Camped!", Rita's protective instincts towards her children increasingly show.
  • Manchild: Lynn Sr. at times; he likes cat videos and jigsaw puzzles. He's also fond of puns and has a tendency to burst into tears whenever he gets emotionally upset.
  • Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy: It's downplayed for both of them, but it's shown—Lynn Sr. is a fan of Dream Boat and seems to do most of the cooking in the house (even wearing an pink apron when doing so), while Rita is a bit of a craftsman and has her own tool shed.
  • Nice Guy: Both of them are well-meaning people and supportive of their children.
  • Not So Above It All: It's debatable how "above it all" they are, but they do have some moments.
    • When Lincoln tricks Mr. Loud to send him back to the kids' table and have a food fight with the younger girls. The older girls ask if they can join in. Mr. Loud is happy to have some peace and quiet. Mrs. Loud comments "Did you say 'peas'?" and flicks some at him with her spoon, both of them chuckling good-heartedly afterwards.
    • "Along Came a Sister" shows Dad shares Leni's fear of spiders.
    • "Chore and Peace" showed Mom deciding not to intervene with the kids going on chore strike because she wants to know what Lincoln will use to rhyme with "sixteen" and believes the kids might learn something if they handle the problems themselves.
    • At the end of "Suite and Sour", even after all the mayhem their children caused at the resort, it's revealed that they are the ones that eventually got the family kicked out, after the manager caught them Skinny Dipping in the pool at night. They decide against telling the kids until they're older.
    • At the end of "Party Down", they're not mad that Lori's party eventually turned into a Wild Teen Party despite her claims it would be "sophisticated" because wild parties are what 17-year-olds like Lori should be having, and even happily join in on the festivities.
    • They buy into Lynn's claims of Lincoln being a jinx in "No Such Luck", to the point of locking Lincoln out of the house and selling all his furniture.
  • Odd Name Out: Rita is the only one in the Loud House whose name doesn't start with the letter "L", not counting the pets. Justified if one remembers that she clearly married into the Loud family and took the surname.
  • One-Note Cook: Downplayed with Lynn Sr. He's a fantastic cook, but in "Fed Up", it's revealed he makes the same seven dinners week after week after week—Salisbury Steaks Sundays, Meatball Mondays, Turkeyloaf Tuesdays, Weinersnitchel Wednesdays, Goulash Thursdaysnote , Fish Fry Fridays, and Succotash Saturdays—with little variation. Justified in that he needs to prepare large enough nutritious meals for a family of 13 while on a budget, so he has to do this to save money.
  • Parents as People: They don't always act like the best parents, but that doesn't mean they don't love their kids.
  • Pink Girl, Blue Boy: Lynn Sr. wears dark teal, Rita wears salmon pink.
  • Pungeon Master: It's very apparent that Luan gets her "pun-chant" for jokes from her dad. It's even jokingly Lampshaded by Lynn Sr. in "Raw Deal" when he's checking the tires' air pressure:
    Luan: Let me know if you get tire-d, Dad.
    Lynn Sr.: Good one, honey. That's why you're my "air." (heir)
  • Punny Name: Rita's full name is a pun on the phrase "read aloud", reflecting how she's an aspiring author.
  • Pushover Parents:
    • The Loud parents get a full-stop grasp on the Idiot Ball in "April Fool's Rules" by refusing to punish Luan for the psychopathic extents she's going to, despite them being completely in the right to do so.
    • Also in "Brawl in the Family". As the increasingly psychotic sisters take over life in the house, especially for Lincoln, they do absolutely nothing to stop all the stupid fighting, instead having dinner twice with a separate sister and than hiding in their room when the threat becomes “Stampeding T-Rex” rather than bothering to help anyone or simply just reprimand the girls for their crazy, selfish behavior.
    • And in "No Such Luck". Somehow, they are gullible enough to immediately believe Lincoln’s little bad luck trick and have no problem locking Lincoln outside or refusing to believe Lincoln when he clearly tells the truth about “bad luck”. Or even being unable to punish Lynn for her selfish, irresponsible actions.
    • In "Friendzy", when the kids invite all their best friends over to get privileges over one another, they run off to the mall with Lily rather than do something useful. Only after the police punish them with a ticket do they carry out a punishment.
    • In The Really Loud House, while Lynn Sr. is shown to give into his kids' requests, Rita is shown to be more willing to put her foot down and say no. This is best shown in "Better Together": when Leni comes over to request money, Rita immediately shuts down her request while Lynn Sr. immediately hands over his wallet.
  • Screams Like a Little Girl: Lynn Sr. has a naturally high-pitched scream. This is particularly prominent in "Tricked!"
  • Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: Lynn Sr. is the sensitive guy to Lance’s manly man.
  • Sick Episode: Both got flu like the rest of the family in "One Flu Over the Loud House".
  • Skinny Dipping: Both skinny dip in one episode and get in trouble for it.
  • Spiders Are Scary: Like Leni, Lynn Sr. has a fear of spiders.
  • Supreme Chef: Lynn Sr. is the family cook, and "Home of the Fave" indicates he was already getting into it as a child. In "Fed Up" after the kids waste all the food trying to cook up something different, Mr. Loud is able to improvise a delicious new dish named "Casa De Loud" with what remains.
    • In "Job Insecurity", he performed such an impressive job making breakfast sandwiches at the restaurant he worked at, that he was instantly promoted from dishwasher to co-chef and his boss wanted show him off to everyone. They were so good, that Lincoln and his sisters would aggressively fight over his unfinished leftover sandwiches.
    • Mr. Loud's cooking also becomes the subject in "A Fridge Too Far", where the Loud siblings fight over the leftovers in the fridge, that they start booby-trapping the fridge and then later, dividing the fridge into designated zones for each Loud sibling. Later, they donate their leftovers to Mr. Loud to serve to a food critic/investor who very much enjoys it.
    • That said, there are at least some dishes he's not well-equipped to make, such as his cabbage casserole with fish sauce in "House of Lies" that nobody in the household likes and would sooner throw into the toilet than eat.
    • By "Cooked!", he's even heading his own restaurant, Lynn's Table. His sample menu is enough to make the Loud siblings stuff themselves after just looking at it for a few seconds (Lynn Jr. was eating her food so fast she ate the comment card she was supposed to sign out in the process!). And that was just the sample menu! Lincoln described it as the highlight of preparing for opening day.
  • Took a Level in Badass: In "Rita Her Rights", Rita purposely and carelessly commits misdemeanor crimes in order to serve a prison sentence, since she's tired of dealing with her rambunctious family.
  • The Unfavorite: "Home of the Fave" reveals Lynn Sr.'s father Leonard had a habit of playing favorites and Lynn Sr. was this to his brother Lance, with at least one occasion where Leonard would bail on their cooking time together to be with Lance. This makes him Freak Out in the episode proper that he's repeating the same mistake with his own children.
  • Unnamed Parent: At first they're only known as the Loud parents, Mr. and Mrs. Loud, Mom and Dad, etc.
    • In "Overnight Success", Mr. Loud calls Lynn "Lynn Jr.", implying that one of the parents is Lynn Sr. Since "Lynn" is technically a unisex name, it was ambiguous which parent was Lynn Sr. until an Instagram post on Facebook revealed it to be Mr. Loud. "Study Muffin" confirms this to be true, as Mr. Loud introduces himself to Hugh as Lynn Loud Sr.
    • In "A Novel Idea", the dentist refers to Mrs. Loud as Rita.
  • Unwitting Instigator of Doom: In "It's a Loud, Loud, Loud, Loud, House" Mr. Loud tricks the kids into searching for a stash of money in the hopes it will teach them the value of sharing it, giving them his own work bonus; his plan works, but only after the kids have trashed the house to find it.
  • Wacky Parent, Serious Child:
    • Downplayed with Lori and Lincoln. They (Lynn Sr. moreso) can come across as more rambunctious than said latter two more often than not, especially when being Not So Above It All Pushover Parents, in contrast to Lincoln and Lori who occasionally prove to be more capable of keeping the other Loud kids in check than them and can show serious behavior. However, Lori and Lincoln still answer to them, have to obey their rules, and have their own fair share of foolish moments too. In The Loud House Movie, it's Lincoln who manages to organize all his sisters' accomplishments rather than either of the parents.
    • Zig-zagged with Lucy and Lisa. The two girls are a lot more stoic and reserved than them, but Lynn Sr. and Rita are the ones responsible for making sure Lisa's Mad Scientist tendencies don't go to far, and Lucy mostly requires as much disciplinary behavior as the other kids due to still only being 8.
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Mr. Loud, like Leni, is terrified of spiders. He's also afraid of dentist appointments and Halloween.
  • Women Are Wiser: Rita is clearly the saner half of the marriage, as she's more grounded to reality and less afraid to lay down blunt discipline, while Lynn Sr. is a manchild and a bit too quirky to be taken seriously.
  • Youthful Freckles:
    • It's revealed in "L is For Love", that Rita had freckles when she was a young adult.
    • Lynn Sr. also had freckles when he was about twelve, as shown in the flashback to his middle school years in "Recipe for Disaster."

Other Relatives

    Albert/Pop-Pop 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/qwe.png
Voiced by: Fred Willard (seasons 1-4), Christopher Swindle ("Resident Upheaval"), Piotr Michael ("High Crimes" onwards)
Played by: Bill Southworth

Rita's dad and the maternal grandfather of Lincoln and his sisters.


  • Acrofatic: He's round, but is quite skilled at the activities listed below.
  • A Day in the Limelight: "The Old and the Restless" is centered around him and his relationship with Lincoln.
  • Beware the Nice Ones: He's a nice Cool Old Guy, but when he was led to believe that his friend Seymour was having an affair with his new girlfriend, he angrily attacked him and would have seriously hurt him if the kids didn't stop him in time.
  • Big Eater: His appetite once closed down a buffet.
  • Big Fun: He's a nice, jolly fat guy.
  • Cool Old Guy: Despite his age, he's interested and skilled at youthful activities including paint ball, laser tag, mechanical bull riding, skateboarding, and skydiving.
  • False Teeth Tomfoolery: During their day together in "The Old and the Restless," Albert loses his false teeth when he and Lincoln are riding bumper cars and collide head on. They end up in Lincoln's hair.
  • Gasshole: He gets gassy after eating chili.
  • Nice Guy: He's very kindhearted to each of his grandchildren.
  • Parent with New Paramour: Or in this case grandparent with new paramour. In "Insta-gran," we're introduced to Myrtle, his new girlfriend.
  • Retired Badass: He curb-stomped a crew of trained Navy SEALS in paintball and, going by his anchor tattoo, was a sea-faring soldier himself in his prime.
  • Sibling Yin-Yang: While they haven't interacted onscreen yet, he's the exact opposite of his sister, Ruth. Albert is a Cool Old Guy nice with his grandchildren and a Retired Badass who's still very active and sporty. Ruth is rather unpleasant with her grandnieces and grandnephew and a lazy woman who barely gets up from her armchair.
  • Top-Heavy Guy: He has burly arms, a round belly, and short, skinny legs.

    Leonard Loud/Gramps 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/leonard_loud.png
Voiced by: Rick Zieff

Lynn Sr.'s dad and the paternal grandfather of Lincoln and his sisters.


  • Alliterative Name: Just like his sons and Lynn Sr.'s children, his first and last name start with an "L".
  • Ascended Extra: After only making brief appearances in flashbacks, he became a recurring character.
  • Cordon Bleugh Chef: His s'mores in "Bummer Camp" contain fish in them. His grandkids are not pleased.
  • Early Installment Character-Design Difference: Before "Camped!" definitively made him the older, bearded spitting image of Lynn Sr., Leonard's original design in "Vantastic Voyage" showed him as a hippie with snow-white hair, and he was briefly shown in silhouette in "Home of the Fave" with shorter, curly hair.
  • Hippie Parents: According to "Vantastic Voyage," he went through a hippie phase. And apparently, his father in turn was a Fonzie-like greaser.
  • Like Father, Like Son: "Camped!" implies that getting emotional over things runs in the family, as Leonard is just as Prone to Tears as his son Lynn Sr. As noted under the parents' tab, this trait has in turn been passed on to Lori.
  • Parental Favoritism: Lynn Sr. believes that Leonard used to play favorites, apparently favoring Lance in his childhood.
  • Seadog Beard: He's a fisherman by trade until he decided to run Camp Mastodon, and he's got a big bushy beard that's the main visual difference between him and his son.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: He's the spitting image of his son, albeit older and bearded.

    Ruth 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ruth_img1.jpg
Voiced by: Grey Griffin

Rita's paternal aunt and the siblings' great-aunt. The kids all dread the regular visits at her house.


  • Crazy Cat Lady: She has a lot of cats, takes them with her when she goes on vacation and forces her nieces and nephew to watch pictures of them during their visits at her house.
  • The Dreaded: All the kids (except Lana and Lily) and Lynn Sr. dread the visits at her house.
  • Extra Digits: She has six toes on her left foot.
  • Fat Bitch: She is quite overweight and disrespectful to the Loud children.
  • Fat Slob: An overweight, lazy, slovenly individual.
  • Gonk: Just look at her picture... There is definitively no family resemblance between her and Rita.
  • Gross-Up Close-Up: Whenever her extra toe is mentioned, it gets one.
  • Jerkass: Not the most pleasant relative out there. She forces Lincoln to massage her gross feet every time he visits and the other Loud siblings to clean her house.
  • Lazy Bum: She's not very active, rather preferring to dwell on the couch.
  • Meaningful Name: Her name reflects her ruthless personality, being a slob who subjects the Loud kids to expired meals and other activities with no remorse at all.
  • Obnoxious In-Laws: Ruth might be this to Rita's husband, Lynn Sr., as he doesn't like visiting Ruth any more than his kids (minus Lana and Lily) do.
  • Pet the Dog:
    • She seems to have a good relationship with her niece, as she's among those who throw a surprise party to Rita at the end of "No Spoilers". (Which is saying a lot as it's the first she's actually seen out of her couch.)
    • She liked Lori's tractor selfie in "Selfie Improvement".
    • She also admires and respects cats.
  • Sibling Yin-Yang: While they haven't interacted onscreen yet, she's the exact opposite of her brother. Albert is a Cool Old Guy nice with his grandchildren and a Retired Badass who's still very active and sporty. Ruth is rather unpleasant with her grandnieces and grandnephew and a lazy woman who barely gets up from her armchair.

    Harriet 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/harriet.png

One of the great-grandmothers of Lincoln and his sisters. She seems to have shared Lucy's passion in occultism and wrote a spell book, which Lucy finds in "Spell It Out"—also, Lori once gave a brooch that belonged to her to Bobby's mother, Maria.


  • Creepy Changing Painting: In the photo Lucy has of a young Great-Grandma Harriet, Harriet is frowning, but at the end of the episode it suddenly changes to a smile.
  • Early Installment Character-Design Difference: She's first mentioned in "Changing the Baby", and when Lucy shows a picture of her, she has curly hair and big eyes (that could be glasses), not looking at all like Lucy as in "Spell It Out".
  • Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: It's still unrevealed whether her spells are actually magical or what made her picture smile.
  • Posthumous Character: She has already passed on and only appears in pictures.
  • Real After All: At first, it seems that the spells Lucy found in her book and tried on her siblings really worked. However, it's later revealed that they didn't, and the effects were actually the result of more realistic causes. However, her picture *does* start smiling at the end of the episode, so she may have had some powers after all...
  • So Proud of You: Implied by Harriet's picture changing from a frown to a smile; her spirit is proud of Lucy for realizing "true" magic comes in the form of family and friendship.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: In her youth, Great-Grandma Harriet is the spitting image of Lucy.

    Myrtle/Gran-Gran 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/myrtle_0.png
Pop Pop's girlfriend and eventual second wife, and the Loud Kids' step-grandmother.
  • Affectionate Nickname: Wishes to invoke this by having the Loud kids refer to her as their "gran-gran".
  • Beehive Hairdo: She has her hair up in a tall do, giving her that grandmotherly look.
  • Freudian Excuse: The reason she's so invasive towards the Loud kids is because Myrtle grew up an only child and never started a family of her own, and only after meeting Pop Pop did she begin to value spending time with family.
  • My Beloved Smother: She tends to be very invasive with the Loud kids.
  • Nice Girl: Incredibly sweet and affectionate towards the Loud kids, if a tad overbearing.
  • Retired Badass: According to "Pop-Pop the Question", she's a retired secret agent.
  • Second Love: She's Pop Pop's second wife.

    Lance Loud 
Voiced by: Rob Riggle
Lynn Sr.'s brother.
  • Ambiguous Situation: Is Lance older or younger than Lynn Sr.? On the one hand, Lance is taller than Lynn Sr., but on the other hand, it was Lynn Sr. who inherited Vanzilla and the first David Steele issue.
  • Ascended Extra: He first appeared in a flashback in "Home of the Fave", where it's shown that during Lynn Sr.'s childhood, he was apparently Leonard's favorite. It's not until "'Twas the Fight Before Christmas" that he finally shows up in person, with a bigger role to boot.
  • Sibling Rivalry: He's been fighting with Lynn Sr. since childhood. It only intensified one Christmas when a disastrous game of White Elephant led to both brothers refusing to spend Christmas with each other.
  • Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: He's the manly man to Lynn Sr.'s sensitive guy.
  • Parental Favoritism: While Lance doesn’t show any favoritism towards one of his kids, back then, Leonard apparently favored him over Lynn Sr.
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Like Lynn Sr. and Leni, he has a fear of spiders.

    Sharon Loud 
Voiced by: Ozioma Akagha
Lance's wife.

    Cousins 
Voiced by: Christopher Livingston (Shane), Kyrie McAlpin (Shelby), Bahia Watson (Shiloh)
Lance's children.
  • Affectionate Nickname: Shelby tends to be referred to as "Shelbs".
  • Alphabetical Theme Naming: Much like their cousins do with their father, their first names start with "Sh", matching their mother Sharon.
  • Odd Name Out: Shane's name is the only one of the trio that isn't six letters long. He's also the only one whose name is one syllable.
  • No Sense of Direction: Shelby isn't good with directions, which gives Lincoln and Lori trouble when she has to direct them to a store.
  • Two Guys and a Girl: A sibling version. Whereas Lynn Sr.'s kids are one boy and ten girls, Lance's are two boys and one girl.
  • Twofer Token Minority: They're biracial, and Shelby wears glasses.

    1600s Louds 
See their entry here.

Pets

    Charles 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tt.png

The Loud family's dog.


  • All Dogs Are Purebred: Averted. According to Lucy, his grandfather was a Labradoodle, meaning he's technically mixed-breed.
  • Berserk Button: Like most dogs, he doesn't like it when you take his treats from the table.
  • Bruiser with a Soft Center: He is a pit bull terrier, a breed known for being ferocious and savage if not properly trained. Charles displays no such behavior.
  • Dog Stereotype: Averted. He's a pit bull who is portrayed as friendly and non-aggressive. This is true to real life.
  • Fight for the Last Bite: At the end of "Slice of Life", he brawls with Cliff, Geo, and Walt over the last pizza slice.
  • Loyal Animal Companion: Despite being the family pet, he seems to love hanging out with Lincoln, Lana and Luna the most.
  • Morality Pet: He encourages Lincoln not to lie to Lisa about breaking her chemical jars. Fortunately, she was in fact testing an experiment involving that.
  • Named After Somebody Famous: Lincoln has confirmed in a video chat that he is named after Charles M. Schultz.
  • Sick Episode: He somehow caught the flu in "One Flu Over the Loud House".
  • What the Hell, Hero?: Makes it clear that he doesn't approve of Lincoln lying to Lisa in "The Butterfly Effect".

    Cliff 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sj_4.png

The Loud family's cat.


  • Cats Are Mean: Downplayed. Not the worst, but he attacks several times some members of the family (mostly Lincoln and Lynn Sr.), sometimes for unjustified reasons. Like when Lincoln tried to help him to get out of a tree or when he was throwing something in the garbage can. Although he does refrain from trying to kill Walt, even though cats hunt birds.
  • Fight for the Last Bite: Fights over a pizza slice with Charles, Geo, and Walt in "Slice of Life".
  • Named After Somebody Famous: Cliff Sterrett.
  • Sick Episode: He got the flu in "One Flu Over the Loud House".
  • That Poor Cat: He's frequently caught in the crossfire of the kids' antics, even on-screen.

    Walt 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/loud_house_walt.png

The Loud family's bird.


  • Animal Sweet on Object: In "Love Birds", he had a crush on Mr. Grouse's plastic flamingo, and was horrified to learn it wasn't real.
  • Berserk Button: Do NOT take away his bird house. He won't stop hunting you until it's back where it belongs.
  • Bird-Poop Gag: He's pooped on Lincoln, in Lincoln's room, and in a drink before.
  • Fight for the Last Bite: In "Slice of Life", he fights with Geo, Charles, and Cliff over a slice of pizza.
  • Interspecies Romance: One Episode he gets a girlfriend that’s a goose
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Despite his angry face, he does have a soft side. He cheers for Leni alongside the other kids and pets when she's practicing for her driving test, shows up for Frank's "funeral", and shows up to help spread some Christmas spirit to Mr. Grouse.
  • Named After Somebody Famous: Walt Kelly, though you'd be forgiven if you thought he was named after another Walt.
  • Perpetual Frowner: He almost always sports an angry look in his eye.
  • Sick Episode: He got the flu in "One Flu Over the Loud House".
  • When He Smiles: He looks adorable while snuggling up to Hugh in "Study Muffin".

    Geo VI 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/loud_house_geo.png

The Loud family's hamster.


  • Big Eater: He seems to really like food.
  • Black Bead Eyes: His eyes are black dots.
  • Fanboy: Of SMOOCH.
  • Fight for the Last Bite: In "Slice of Life", he fights over the pizza slice with Charles, Cliff, and Walt.
  • Legacy Character: A deleted scene from "Home of the Fave" shows the graves of his five predecessors, revealing that he's the Louds' sixth hamster. This is justified since hamsters have comparatively short lifespans compared to the other Loud pets, who have been living with the Louds for years.
  • Named After Somebody Famous: George "Geo" Harriman.
  • Only Sane Man: In "Study Muffin," he's the only pet not attracted to Hugh.
  • Ridiculously Cute Critter: He's a cute hamster.
  • Sick Episode: He got the flu in "One Flu Over the Loud House".

    Hops 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/loud_house_hops.png

Lana Loud's pet frog.


  • A Day in the Limelight: Plays a significant role in "Frog Wild" alongside Lana.
  • Amplified Animal Aptitude: As shown in "Frog Wild", he's far more intelligent than an average frog.
  • A Lizard Named "Liz": Is a frog named Hops.
  • Loyal Animal Companion: Everywhere Lana goes, chances are that Hops is with her.
  • What the Hell, Hero?:
    • After Lincoln scolds Lana for her tomboyish behavior in "Toads and Tiaras", of which saddens Lana, Hops frowns at Lincoln and shakes his head, obviously voicing his disdain for Lincoln's attitude.
    • Snow Way Out shows he's not above giving this to Lana either. He grabs Lana with his tongue and drags her into the Burpin' Burger to see how miserable and potentially unsafe her sisters and brother are in a powerless snowed in restaurant.

    Fangs 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/loud_house_fangs.png

Lucy Loud's pet bat.


  • Dark Is Not Evil: Despite being a bat, and having his moments (like biting Lynn in "Room with a Feud" and developing a taste for her blood), his bond with Lucy is strong enough to the point where he follows her commands, is comfortable with perching himself on Lucy's head, and seems concerned for Lucy whenever she's feeling down. He also enjoys having nighttime strolls with Lucy.

    Izzy 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/izzy_the_loud_house_1.png

Lana Loud's pet lizard.

    El Diablo 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/el_diablo_6.png

Lana Loud's pet snake.

  • Dark Is Not Evil: Despite having a scary name, chasing people, and being a snake, he's not evil.
  • Squat's in a Name: His name means "the Devil", but he's not devilish.

    Gary 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gary_7.png

Luan Loud's pet rabbit.

    Bitey 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bitey.png

Lana Loud's pet rat.

    Ducklings 

Three ducklings that Lana hatched the eggs of in "Mall of Duty". They followed her home, and at the end, one is adopted by Lisa, one by Lola, and one by Lucy.

    Brad 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s3e07b_brad_the_pit_flea.png
Lana Loud's pet flea.

    Turtle 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tumblr_inline_pbz88nnwyy1tzxqxs_1280.jpg
A snappish turtle that the Louds saved. According to Lynn Sr, it's a male.

    Ruth's Cats 
A lot of cats owned by Ruth.

  • Ambiguous Gender: We don't know all their sexes.
  • No Name Given: Except for Mittens, their names aren't revealed.
  • Toilet Humour: One of the things Lincoln doesn't like about staying with Ruth is cleaning their litter box.

    Seymour 
Allegedly, Lana's other frog, but seeing as the story he featured in was revealed to be a lie and he's never seen, he may not exist.

  • Invented Individual: Implied when Lana reveals that the story she told about him was all a lie.
  • Uncertain Doom: Lana claims Lola killed him. That was later revealed to be a lie, but he may have died another way if he ever existed.

    Lela 
See her entry here.

    Anthony 
An alligator that Lana befriends in the Loud kids’ trip to Fairway becoming the Sixth Ranger to the main pets in the process.

Played by: Jack McQuaid (human form)
Luan's ventriloquist dummy and partner, sometimes hinted to have a life of his own.
  • A Day in the Limelight:
    • "Director's Hut" and "The Last Laugh" heavily feature him.
    • "Doll Day Afternoon" explains who created Mr. Coconuts and how Luan came across him.
  • Ascended Extra: In the first season, he was nothing more than a silly accessory Luan utilized for a gag or two. Season 2 and onwards, he's now a central part of Luan's character, with the puppet rarely being seen apart from her.
  • Baby-Doll Baby: Mr. Coconuts was originally created so the original Calvin Coconuts could have a "child" for his father-son duo banjo act.
  • Companion Cube: Luan interacts with him like he's a human being.
  • Distaff Counterpart: Has one in the form of Mrs. Appleblossom, Benny's marionette. "One of the Boys" also shows a female version of him, Mrs. Coconuts, who is owned by Lane, the male version of Luan.
  • Demonic Dummy: Possibly. He's hinted to be alive, although whether he's evil or not is up to debate.
  • Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: At one point, she makes a pun while working her Ventriloquism act with Mr. Coconuts. The dummy actually turns his head and shoots her a Death Glare, but the show never clarifies whether or not he really is alive. She frequently speaks with Mr. Coconuts as if he's alive, but she's still doing his voice, which may suggest that he's her Split Personality. Other characters also acknowledge that Mr. Coconuts isn't his own person, but just Luan holding a puppet. However, the ending of "Stage Plight" has Mr. Coconuts move and speak completely independent of Luan, to Lola's shock. The episode "Snoop's On" at one point has him speak and move while sitting in Luan's bike basket, where she isn't even touching him.
  • Security Blanket: Mr. Coconuts seems to be Luan's main source of comfort in her crises.

    Todd

Voiced by: Brian Stepanek, Wolfgang Schaeffer (Lincoln voice, The Really Loud House)
One of Lisa's robots and a recurring sidekick of hers.
  • A.I. Is a Crapshoot: He's installed with a villain function in "Lights, Camera, Nuclear Reaction" to make his performance more authentic for Lincoln and Clyde's movie, but Lisa forgot to turn it off after the shoot. Things then go as well as you'd expect.
  • Ascended Extra: Lisa originally built him out of junk for two quick gags in "Making The Grade". Nowadays, he's her most recurring creation.
  • Early-Installment Weirdness: Originally, as seen in "Robot Sitcom" and "Silence of the Luans", his mouth would glow green whenever he spoke. Not so much nowadays.
  • Ridiculously Human Robots: Todd has a rather comical, snarky personality, to the point of being unhelpful to Lisa sometimes.
  • Super-Powered Robot Meter Maids: Todd was a mere robotics school project, but has laser eyes for some reason.
  • Vocal Evolution: His voice has become more of a Machine Monotone than at first. Even more so in The Really Loud House.

    Tanya 
A mannequin that Leni considers her closest friend.
  • Companion Cube: It's a lifeless mannequin that Leni talks with as if it were an imaginary friend. Unlike Mr. Coconuts, she does not "speak" and is only treated as a person due to Leni's lack of intelligence instead of a ventriloquist act.


Genderbent Louds

    The Loud Brothers 

In General

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/genderbent_loud_kids.PNG
The male counterparts of Lincoln's sisters seen in "One of the Boys." Their names — from oldest to youngest — are Loki (Lori), Loni (Leni), Luke (Luna), Lane (Luan), Lynn (now a boy), Lars (Lucy), Leif (Lana), Lexx (Lola), Levi (Lisa) and Leon (Lily).
  • Alternate Self: They're male versions of the Loud sisters. At least two versions of the Loud brothers are shown in the episode itself: one where Lincoln is still male and another where Lincoln is female.
  • Annoying Younger Sibling: Depending on which trope, it's both played straight and age-inverted—this is what the brothers ultimately turn out to be in the dimension where Lincoln's the middle child of eleven sons.
  • Bait the Dog: In the first part of the episode in which they appear, they actually have a good time with Lincoln and take him to the activities his sisters refused to do with him. They (more or less) reveal their true colors in the second part.
  • Big Brother Bully: In the dimension where all the Loud children are male, they are very much this to Lincoln, as they roughhouse, torment, and belittle him for his lack of masculinity.
  • Big Brother Instinct: The dimension where it's one girl with ten brothers seems to be more or less exactly the same as Lincoln's original dimension—the male-counterparts of Lincoln's sisters are shown to be just as caring and protective of Linka (Lincoln's female counterpart) as the sisters are towards Lincoln. It's to the point where, if the brothers hear their sister screaming in the middle of the night, all ten of them run to her room to see if she's okay and even offer to stay with her until she falls asleep.
    • Loki's the first of the brothers to ask Linka if she's okay.
    • Loni's the brother who offers for himself and the others to stay with Linka until she falls asleep.
  • The Bully: In the dimension where all of the Loud children are male, they are this towards Lynn Sr.
  • But You Were There, and You, and You: They're characters from Lincoln's dream and resemble his sisters.
  • Casting Gag: The four eldest Loud brothers are voiced by the same men who voice the 2012 versions of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, who are also owned by Nickelodeon.
  • Childish Tooth Gap: Like their female counterparts, Leif and Lexx have their front teeth, but are missing a tooth on either end of them.
  • Corrupted Character Copy: Given how they share the same voice actors as a Casting Gag, the four eldest Loud brothers are arguably ones toward Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michaelangelo from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012). While the latter are badass brothers who tend to get at each other's throats but still care for others, the former are lazy jerks who pick on their father and Lincoln.
  • Dream People: They're revealed to only be Lincoln's dream characters.
  • Evil Counterpart: Okay, evil might be too strong to describe them, but they all have the sisters' negative traits increased with none of their positive qualities. That said, they appear to be nicer in the dimension where Lincoln is a girl.
  • Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas: While the brothers in the dimension with no female Loud children aren't necessarily evil, they are shown to be bigger Jerkasses than the sisters on their worst days. They're also shown to be fairly loving of their mother, going as far as giving her a kiss on the cheek.
  • Flat Character: While some do possess a few traits unique and identical to their female counterparts, in the end, they're ultimately the same as 10 Lynns. Lincoln even lampshades it when Girl Lynn pulls down his pants, something Boy Lynn did a few minutes ago.
  • Gasshole: All ten brothers who constantly burp and fart, and give Lincoln a Dutch Oven Loud House style. Special mention goes to both Boy Lynn, who burps the loudest and the most often, not unlike his female counterpart, and to Loki, who farts the most (also not unlike his female counterpart) and can apparently fart on cue.
  • Handy Feet: Some of them pick their noses with their toes, which Boy Lynn is shown doing on-screen.
  • Jerkass: In the dimension where all the Loud kids are boys, their bullying of Lincoln is worse than the bullying of his sisters. Not only do they treat Lincoln like crap, but they also have a habit of dog piling on their father. They are much, much nicer in the world with Linka in it.
  • Momma's Boy: Unlike their dad, who they dogpile on every chance they get, they seem to be real caring toward their mom. Loki, Lynn, and Leif even give her a kiss as they greet her.
  • Nose Nuggets: All of them pick their noses, some of them even using their toes to do it.
  • Wouldn't Hit a Girl: For all their roughhousing, the brothers are very nice to their mother and Linka.
  • Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: While some of them have this dynamic with each other, like the quiet, poetic Lars and the athletic, brutish Boy Lynn, they're ultimately all bullying, gross, roughhousing manly men to Lincoln's sensitive guy.
  • Spear Counterpart: They're the male versions of the Loud sisters and have similar appearances and personalities to the sisters.

Loki Loud

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/loki_loud_vector.png

Voiced by: Seth Green

Lori's male counterpart.


  • Big Brother Bully: He's the oldest of the siblings and is very quick to use his position as the biggest of the bunch to his advantage.
  • Evil Counterpart: He is the oldest sibling, but not responsible like Lori and is more willing to join in the antics of his younger siblings. Loki also enjoys teasing Lincoln's relationship with Ronnie Anne rather than be a Shipper on Deck.
  • Gasshole: He has Lori's farting habit, but at least he admits it.
  • Hypocrite: His model sheet states that he has a girlfriend named Bebe (Bobby's female counterpart), but makes fun of Lincoln for going out with her sister Ronnie Anne.
  • Verbal Tic: Like his female counterpart, he has a habit of saying "literally."

Loni Loud

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/loni_loud_vector.png

Voiced by: Sean Astin

Leni's male counterpart.


  • Dumb Blonde: Is as absent-minded as Leni.
  • Evil Counterpart: He's one of the brothers most different from his female counterpart, along with Luke. Unlike Leni, he is not sensitive and does not care when his brothers get hurt and laughs at Lincoln's relationship with Ronnie Anne and when he suffers physical pain.
  • Insufferable Imbecile: It's what makes him completely different from Leni. Although he is an airhead and is definitely nice around Rita or Linka, he otherwise shares the roughhousing personality of his brothers.

Luke Loud

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/luke_loud.png

Voiced by: Greg Cipes

Luna's male counterpart.


  • '90s Hair: Luke has this with his fauxhawk.
  • Big Brother Bully: Perhaps the biggest example out of all the Loud brothers. The scene where he uses Lincoln's head to mop up the mess in the bathroom really sticks out.
  • Evil Counterpart: Along with Loni, Luke is probably one of the brothers most different from his female equivalent in this way. Unlike Luna, who is a Cool Big Sis, Luke is a Big Brother Bully who gives Lincoln a Swirlie and is the one who flushed Bun-Bun down the toilet.

Lane Loud

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lane_loud.png

Voiced by: Rob Paulsen

Luan's male counterpart.


  • Companion Cube: He has a female version of Luan's ventriloquist dummy, Mr. Coconuts.
  • '90s Hair: Lane has a cross between a bowl cut and curtained hair.
  • Evil Counterpart: He likes to do jokes and pranks, but his tend to be generally more humiliating and mean-spirited than Luan's. He gives Lincoln a wedgie for no good reason while Luan, outside of April Fools, rarely uses violent humor and prefers to make puns and use her water flower.
  • Real Men Wear Pink: Lane wears a pink bowtie on his shirt like Luan's pink flower. He also has Mrs. Coconuts, a female puppet with a feminine voice that he puts on, not too dissimilar from Luan's boyfriend, Benny. Despite this, he is still a violent and boisterous roughhouser just like the rest of his brothers.

Lynn Loud Jr. (Male)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lynn_loud_male.png

Voiced by: Jessica DiCicco

Lynn's male counterpart.


  • Jerk Jock: He's possibly even more abrasive and aggressive than his female counterpart (which is really saying something) and doesn't display some of her more redeemable traits, except for in the dimension with Linka.

Lars Loud

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lars_loud.png

Voiced by: Jessica DiCicco

Lucy's male counterpart.—-

  • Goth: Just as much as Lucy. He sleeps in a coffin and has a room full of bats, and shares the same gloomy personality.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: While he shares the same rough and violent tendencies as the rest of his brothers, his quiet voice and otherwise introverted nature make him the blue oni compared to Male Lynn's red.

Leif Loud

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lief_loud.png

Voiced by: Grey Griffin

Lana's male counterpart.


  • Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: The manly man to his twin Lexx's sensitive guy, being a gruff-sounding, violent dirt lover. They're the male versions of Lana and Lola after all. Downplayed since Lexx is quite the roughhouser, too.
  • Walking Shirtless Scene: He doesn't bother wearing a shirt. Downplayed, as he still has his overalls.

Lexx Loud

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lexx_loud.png

Voiced by: Grey Griffin

Lola's male counterpart.


Levi Loud

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/levi_loud.png

Voiced by: Lara Jill Miller

Lisa's male counterpart.


  • Child Prodigy: Just like his female counterpart. This doesn't stop from acting like a one-note brute like the rest of his brothers sometimes, however.
  • Wise Beyond Their Years: Again, just like Lisa, if him constantly wearing a white lab coat is any indication.

Leon Loud

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/leon_loud.png

Voiced by: Grey Griffin

Lily's male counterpart.


  • Enfant Terrible: He's a pretty violent young baby, no doubt because of his surrounding environment.
  • Gasshole: Being both a Spear Counterpart to Lily and a part of the Loud brothers group, he's naturally this.
  • The Quiet One: Aside from crying offscreen, Leon doesn't say a word.

    Linka Loud 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/linka_loud_vector.png
Voiced by: Collin Dean

Lincoln's female counterpart, also from "One of the Boys", who's the middle child and only daughter of the genderbent Loud children.


  • The Conscience: She is implied to act as the moral compass to her brothers. In fact, it's shown that if it weren't for Linka, the Loud brothers would be little more than modified Lynn clones.
  • Distaff Counterpart: To Lincoln.
  • Dream People: She is a character in Lincoln's dream.
  • Girly Girl: Possibly, because during the brief time that her room is seen, it looks rather feminine (pink is the dominant color and she appears to have a lot of stuffed animals). Since her male counterpart has sisters and is in touch with his feminine side, she could be a Girly Girl with a Tomboy Streak or a Tomboy with a Girly Streak.
  • I Have Brothers: Since the male-version of this trope is true for Lincoln, this trope is presumably played straight (at least to certain extent) with Linka, since she is a girl with ten brothers (see this trope's main page for the entry on The Loud House for more information).
  • Morality Pet: Just like how Lily Loud appears to be this for Lincoln and the rest of their sisters, Linka appears to be this for her brothers—much just like the sisters towards Lincoln, the brothers are shown to be very caring and protective towards Linka. It's to the point where, if the boys hear Linka screaming in the middle of the night, all ten of them run to her room to see if she's okay and even offer to stay with her until she falls asleep.
  • Pink Means Feminine: She has a pink room.
  • The Smurfette Principle: Linka, as Lincoln's female counterpart, is the middle child and only daughter of eleven kids. Just like how Lincoln and his dad are pretty much the only guys in the Loud family (not counting any of the pets, all of whom are presumably males), Linka and her mom are probably the only females in the house (not counting of any of their pets, all of whom are now presumably females).

    Linka and the Brothers' Parents 
Voiced by: Jill Talley (Rita), Brian Stepanek (Lynn Sr.)

The versions of Lynn Sr. and Rita from the alternate dimension in "One of the Boys". Unlike the brothers and Linka, they're not gender-swapped versions of their original counterparts, but instead have their clothes' colors swapped.


Loud rabbits

    The Loud Rabbits 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tropebunnies.jpg
Voiced by: Collin Dean (Warren), Catherine Taber (Betty and Beverly), Liliana Mumy (Blair and Brenda), Nika Futterman (Barbara and Bodhi), Cristina Pucelli (Bebe and Bippa), Jessica DiCicco (Bailey and Bella), Grey DeLisle (Bernadette and Beulah), Lara Jill Miller (Beatrice and Blanch), Chrissy Cannone (Bethany and Brie), Blair Dinucci (Bernice and Bertha), Altara Michelle (Bianca and Brooke), Lea Moreno (Belinda and Birdie), Lisa Schaffer (Beth and Brandy)

Funny Animal versions of the Loud siblings seen in "White Hare," conceived in a dream Lincoln had shortly after seeing a similar group of rabbit siblings, re-enacting what happened between him and his sisters at the beginning of the episode.

Their names are — in order when they first spoke in the episode — Warren, Betty, Beverly, Blair, Brenda, Barbara, Bodhi, Bebe, Bippa, Bailey, Bella, Bernadette, Beulah, Beatrice, Blanch, Bethany, Brie, Bernice, Bertha, Bianca, Brooke, Belinda, Birdie, Beth, Brandy and Bridget.


  • Alphabetical Theme Naming: All of the rabbit sisters have names that start with a B. Only Warren breaks the rule.
  • Authority Sounds Deep: While it's not clear how much "authority" she has among her siblings, Betty dresses like a Drill Sergeant Nasty and has a deeper voice than all the other rabbit sisters.
  • Barefoot Cartoon Animal: Regardless of how much clothing they wear, almost none of them wear footwear. The only exception is Beulah, who wears brown boots.
  • Black Bead Eyes: Averted with Beatrice in comparison to Lisa. Despite her similar look to Lisa down to the glasses (albeit with a blue tone replacing the fuchsia in her clothes), Beatrice has the series' typical Black Dot Pupils eyes.
  • Continuity Nod: Betty's Drill Sergeant Nasty garb is almost identical to the one Lori wore in "No Guts, No Glori", only without the boots.
  • Cowgirl: Beulah is dressed and acts like one.
  • Decomposite Character: Some of the rabbit sisters were created via splitting the traits of the original ones.
    • Betty is based on Lori's Drill Sergeant Nasty persona from "No Guts, No Glori", while Bridget has her obsession with her phone.
    • Luna's musical talent and love for British stuff are relegated to Barbara and Bippa, respectively.
    • Lynn's athletic hobbies are split between Bailey and Bertha, and Bernice has her obsession with luck and superstitions.
    • Bella has Lucy's Goth appearance and demeanor, and Birdie has her fondness for literature.
    • Beatrice is the family genius and has a similar outfit to Lisa, while Blanch takes her Medic and Terrified of Germs traits.
  • Dream People: They're characters imagined in a dream Lincoln had while unconscious.
  • Ears as Hair: Beulah has her ears styled like a braided ponytail.
  • Explosive Breeder: Not themselves (as of yet), but being 26 rabbit siblings, it goes without saying that their parents were this.
  • Fitness Nut: Two of the rabbit sisters have a passion for sports (Bailey) and gym fitness (Bertha), respectively.
  • Funny Animal: They're a bunch of anthropomorphic rabbits.
  • Furry Female Mane: Bella does not have a full mane, but still has Lucy's eye-covering front hair. This is unusual for Bella, as every other rabbit either has no representation of hair, a Tuft of Head Fur (as in Warren's case), or uses their Ears as Hair (Beulah).
  • Love Be a Lady: Belinda, the biggest Shipper on Deck for Warren and the new girl, is obsessed with romance. In terms of appearance, she wears a pink shirt with a red heart on it, has a red heart accessory with a yellow arrow, earrings shaped like smaller hearts, and is once seen carrying a bow like Cupid.
  • Massive Numbered Siblings: There's 15 more of them than the normal siblings' 11, totaling up to 26.
  • Non-Standard Character Design: Brandy's eyes are considerably larger and rounder than those of the other rabbits, and even for the series' standards.
  • Odd Name Out: Warren is the only one of the rabbit siblings whose name does not start with a B.
  • The Paranoiac: Brooke is a comical example, as she's worried about almost everything that can happen and their consequences, with the others not caring much about her.
  • Punny Name:
    • Lincoln's rabbit counterpart is named Warren, a reference to where rabbits live in the wild.
    • Beth's name sounds similar to "bed", befitting her Sleepyhead personality.
  • Sleepyhead: Beth always has a tired expression on her face, and falls asleep whenever she's not doing anything in particular. Fittingly, she also wears a nightcap.
  • Team Chef: Brie, although she doesn't appear to be really good at cooking or making drinks, seeing that Warren took a Spit Take at the smoothie she made for him because, as he says, it tasted like manure.
  • Tuft of Head Fur: Warren has a tuft on his head.
  • The Voiceless: Bridget is the only Loud rabbit who doesn't speak, instead solely communicating via text messages.
