* In the ''Films/XMen'' films ''and'' comics, Charles Xavier (Professor X) and Erik Lehnsherr ({{Magneto}}) always use their first names when speaking to or about each other. Only a handful of others are on a first-name basis with them.

* In ''Film/GoldenEye'', Janus actually addresses Bond as "James" instead of "Mr. Bond," which is rare for a JamesBond villain. Though it's justified, [[spoiler:since he and James are old buddies]].

* ''TheEnforcer''. DirtyHarry is partnered with a rookie female officer who's naturally defensive about any attempt to patronize her -- so much so that "Don't concern yourself, Inspector" becomes her CatchPhrase. Her FamousLastWords as she dies in his arms are "Don't concern yourself...Harry."

* In ''{{Pirates of the Caribbean}}'', Elizabeth is furious that Jack refers to her by her first name during their first encounter - "It's ''Miss Swann!''". Will refuses to call Elizabeth by her first name, despite their knowing each other as children, because of their difference in social status; when Elizabeth accepts it and calls him "Mr. Turner", he is deeply grieved. Later, Jack calls Elizabeth "Captain Swan" to acknowledge (with some difficulty) that she has one of the pieces of eight; Bootstrap Bill calls his own son "Captain" and Will calls his own father "Mr. Turner" to acknowledge their roles on the ship; and Barbossa calls Elizabeth "Mrs. Turner" to acknowledge her marriage (though this one is a callback to the first movie, where Elizabeth passed herself off as Elizabeth Turner). Such careful usage was not common in the movies.

* It is a point brought up by Pep Strebeck to Joe Friday in ''{{Film/Dragnet}}'' that friends calleach other by first names.

* Scout and Jem from ''ToKillAMockingbird'' consistently refer to their father Atticus by his first name rather than "Dad". [[JustifiedTrope He doesn't mind,]] and considering the [[MissingMom mother's not around...]]

-->'''Tony''': [[spoiler: "And there's one other person you pissed off. His name was Phil]]."

** Note that it is completely in character for Pepper to learn his name, and for Tony to not. [[spoiler: This gets a CallBack after Coulson is killed by Loki. Tony: And there's one other person who pissed off. His name was Phil]].

* The only character in ''BackToTheFuture'' to address Doc as "Emmett" is Clara Clayton, his love interest.

* [[{{Cars}} Doc Hudson's]] real name is Hudson Hornet. Guess what car he actually is!

* Lampshaded in ''Film/TheAvengers'' when Coulson shows up at Stark Tower.
