** Kyonichi/Kyuuichi - Yuuichi, for having similar looks/personality and the [[TomokazuSugita same seiyuu]] as Kyon of ''[[Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya The Melancholy Of Haruhi Suzumiya]]''. The shared VA is used for a ShoutOut gag in ''{{Kanon}}'' at one point, with Yuuichi suddenly narrating like Kyon out loud.

** Since his recent lovechild scandal (and in reference to some of his more [[MagnificentBastard magnificently bastardish]] exploits) he's been referred to as [[Series/TheSopranos Arnold/Tony Sopranonegger]].

* The recently elected Pope Francis is nicknamed in Latin America as ''Papancho'', being a portmanteau of the Spanish word for ''Pope'' (Papa) and the diminutive form of the Spanish version of his name, ''Francisco'' (Pancho)

* BarackObama has more nicknames than anyone can count. There's Lolbama, O{{Disney/Bambi}}, Obama [[OsamaBinLaden bin Laden]], Osabama, Ogabe, Obimbo, Barry Soetoro, [[DirtyCommies Comrade Obama]], [[FunWithAcronyms BO]], [[EpicFail Fail]]bama, the Obamessiah (for his messianic portrayal of himself and of him by his supporters), Obamanation, [[TheSimpsons Doh!Bama]], Bam-Bam, and so on.
** You forgot my favorite, [[MaoZedong ObaMao]]. Even used in China!

* "[[TheFreshPrinceOfBelAir The Fresh Prince of]] [[{{Hamlet}} Denmark]]."

* It is not uncommon in some corners of the internet to see {{Hamlet}} referred to as "[[TheFreshPrinceOfBelAir The Fresh Prince of Denmark]]."

** San Francisco: The city by bay

* ''ThePhantomOfTheOpera'' due to its various incarnations in many different media is being put here. Most of the nicknames are used to differentiate between the different versions.
** Leroux!Phantom, Leroux!Erik - The original book version. This one wears a black cloth mask over his whole face, has a skull-like face, doesn't have a nose, and smells like death.

** Gerik, Movie!Erik, Movie!Phantom - All are commonly used to identify the version from the Andrew Lloyd Webber movie adaptation despite how many movie versions actually exist. The first name is a portmanteau of the name of the actor who portrayed the titular character and said character's actual name despite it never being said once in either the stage or movie version.

* The sequel to ''ThePhantomOfTheOpera'', ''Theatre/LoveNeverDies'', gained the derisive nickname "Paint Never Dries"; that Andrew Lloyd Webber was fined for painting the Adelphi Theatre didn't help matters.

* ConanOBrien was nicknamed "Coco" by Tom Hanks. It caught on, and became exceedingly popular during the Tonight Show debacle. Conan absolutely hated it, but has since then reluctantly embraced it (his official website even goes by the name "teamcoco.com". He is, however, horrified that even his own children sometimes call him "Coco".

*** As MockTheWeek's FrankieBoyle put it:
--->"Who made him a Lord?? The Sith?!!"
*** So perhaps now "Darth Mandy"?

** Boston: Beantown

*** Also "Governor [[HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse Skeletor]]"
