Two literal Red Barons, one looking Badass.

The caption implies it became badass simply because it gained a nickname.

The thing is, it's not obvious from the picture in some form alone that implies that it became beefed up simply because it gained a nickname.

That, and the trope's about the character being so Badass that they gained a nickname for themselves. It's not about them becoming Badass simply by gaining a nickname.

I suggest this image. It's pretty obvious from the pictures that the things at the top of DK and Samus' respective mugshots are nicknames the WVBAnote  gave them while the two fight within their arena.

The current doesn't show the trope for me, really.

What about the top 6 panels of this? Shows multiple characters with epithets.

I dont know it, this page needs the 'reaction' to the name. instead its just cool nickname.

Something like This which gives us her names + the reaction like one of these this this or this. 1+4 would be major lutz.

I know it's bad quality but thoughts on [up][up]?

[up][up][up]I'm undecided between that combination you said and [up][up][up][up]that one image.

4.1 is already being used in I Have Many Names, so we can't use it here.

[up]I'd prefer the picture for this page to not use so many titles to prevent too much overlap with I Have Many Names.
