This page just has a colored version of the last panel on "It" Is Dehumanizing.

Seeing as this trope is not very easy to illustrate, maybe we can replace the index's image to a similar image as one of these name tags?

I'm down for trying something like that.

The name tag idea is similar to what is on My Name Is Inigo Montoya.

I sort of prefer keeping the single panel version on Naming Conventions and finding an alternative to "It" Is Dehumanizing, but a lot of that is me liking the current caption text for the Naming Conventions picture.

[up]It is also similar to the image on Mary Sue (and at least 1 other trope), but there isn't exactly a campaign to fix any of those.

The name tag works.

I can go with the name tag idea.

[tdown] Nah, there is no convention logic behind a name tag.

This panel from V for Vendetta seems like a decent page image, although maybe there's a better page for it.

Edit: Actually this seems better for Only Known by Their Nickname

I'm good with 8 for Only Known by Their Nickname.

I guess 8 can work for Only Known by Their Nickname. I just hope it's not one of the cases the trope page explicitly says it doesn't cover.

Reclocked. 8 is up on Only Known by Their Nickname, but we still need to decide what to do with Naming Conventions and "It" Is Dehumanizing.

As an index page Naming Conventions is not in dire need of an illustration. I would say cut the image from there and keep it on "It" Is Dehumanizing. No need to keep this thread running for another 14 days.

For Only Known by Their Nickname, can we add the caption "And a One-Letter Name, to boot." or something along those lines? I only noticed now there is trope overlap.

I'm still fine to BUPKIS Naming Conventions; kinda ambivalent on [up].

The clock is up and the consensus is to BUPKIS this page, so it's done, tagged, and added to the list. Locking up.

Like the convention of naming characters.
