Fan Nickname / Web Original

• Die Anstalt: Lyall for the wolf inside Dolly. For Meaningful Name bonus points, it means "shield wolf".

Examples include "Random Chanting Asian Man" (Kaleed from "Time-Flight"), "sparkles" (the Megara from "The Stones of Blood"), and "BDSM-man" (Sharaz Jek from "The Caves of Androzani").
• The Minoto game Bread Girl was given a "Disturb Through" that gave the woman at the vegetable stand the name "Miami Mom" and painted her as a neglectful, domineering mother. It's actually just the alive-and-successful Little Match Girl, but the nickname stuck anyways.
• Not a character, but the fans have nicknamed the authors of the Whateley Universe stories the "Canon Cabal". Occasionally in the forums the acronym TINCC shows up after mentioning this nickname: it stands for 'There Is No Canon Cabal'.
• Worm:
  • The Golden Idiot for Scion, due to his Gold-Colored Superiority and the fact that he turns out to be Dumb Muscle.

• The Other Wiki - Used here to refer to the one that's all Serious Business.
• "Moontube" - Japanese streaming video site Niconico Douga ("Smile Video"). Inspired by the meme of referring to the Japanese language as "moonspeak", and Niconico's equivalence to Youtube.

• The comedy site Channel Awesome has a forum. In one of its topics, the fans talk about an episode of the Nostalgia Critic that slammed the Rob Reiner movie North. In this movie, there is a boy named Winchell who, later on in the review, becomes the villain. The Nostalgia Critic made a joke that he acts like Dick Cheney. Because of this, everyone in the North topic calls Winchell, you guessed it, Dick Cheney.

• On Reddit, occasionally a website will be linked to on Reddit and the resultant flood of traffic overloads the site's servers, causing it to crash. Redditors call this phenomenon being "hugged to death".
