* ''Fanfic/ItsAboutTheBones'': As usual, the Saints get titles.
** The irony of Mercymorn being the Saint of ''Joy'' gets brought up.
--->Sure, you get the vague hint that Mercymorn isn't your biggest fan. But as it turns out, Mercymorn isn't a big fan of anything at all, really. She lives in a constant state of irritation with everything around her. When Teacher mentions in passing, during one of your tea parties, that he intended for the titles to refer to the ''cavalier'' rather than the necromancer, you slump so visibly with relief that God offers you another biscuit.
** The new Lyctors are too young to have titles yet.
--->Harrow the First, ninth of his necrosaints, his sacred Hand, harbinger of the Rising River, Saint of to be determined.\\
(I've been workshopping ideas. Saint of Mojo? Saint of Biceps, for peak irony? Jeannemary, I know you'd back me. Ain't nobody got me like best teen Jeannemary got me.)
** Harrow does think of a decent one, while in the one place that Gideon can't hear her thoughts.
--->Gideon's pleased little smile only widens. Her sad eyes are Harrow's eyes, as black as Drearburh. "Because, dark chrysanthemum of my heart," she says, "ancient Ninth House proverb - ride or die."\\
''Saint of Devotion'', Harrow thinks. She releases one hand, and Gideon anticipates her, hauling Harrow in by the link that remains. She wraps her arms around Harrow, and Harrow hooks her skinny arm around the back of Gideon's neck, and they hold each other as they fall like stars.

* ''Fanfic/TheVioletDemon'': Participants in Aerax's GladiatorGames are given catchy epithets as advertising, such as Gornakk 'The Crusher" or Gaz's own "[[TitleDrop The Violet Demon]]"; she finds the concept stupid, saying it makes her sound like a teenage edgelord.

* ''Fanfic/TheNightWar'' reveals that Bucky Barnes' sniper campaign earned him the nickname of 'Schädeljäger' among the Germans. This translates to 'Skull-Hunter', for his supposed proclivity for targeting the skulls on SS caps (the in-text historical annotation observes that those caps weren't actually worn into battle), and for headshots in general. It became a part of Allied propaganda, and while Barnes' journal makes clear that he deeply disliked the nickname, [[AppropriatedAppellation (though he appropriated it at one point)]], the in-text historical notes reveal that the 107th became known as 'the Skull-Hunters'.
