Line #65 AerithAndBob/WesternAnimation


1	* ''WesternAnimation/ThreeTwoOnePenguins'' - Zidgel, Midgel, Fidgel, and Kevin.
2	* In ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfTeddyRuxpin'', Grubby has a unique name compared to his siblings, who have names like Lisa and Molly.
3	* ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'' has Gumball, Darwin and Anais, and their parents, Richard and Nicole. As of season 3, Gumball's real name was revealed to be [[spoiler: Zach]].
4	** In the school, there are kids with normal names like "Alan", "Sarah", "Penny", "Carrie", and "William", and more uncommon like "Bobert", "Ocho", "Sussie", and "Juke".
5	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'': In the show, you have normal names like Dot, Ralph, Rita and Mindy. But then you have uncommon names like Yakko, Wakko, Runt and Pinky.
6	* An episode of ''WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce'' has an example. Meatwad gets a T-Shirt that makes him a god. His first act of power is to summon the Easter Bunny. He then proceeds to summon the Easter Bunny's twin brother, Darryl. [[note]] And his other brother Darryl?
7	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Arcane}}'': As one would expect from a [[AnimeOfTheGame show based on]] VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends, there's quite a wide spectrum of names. There are common English names (Violet, Caitlyn, Marcus), non-English spellings (Viktor, Mylo), English words not typically used as names (Powder, Singed), international names (Sevika, Ambessa), and complete inventions (Silco, Claggor).
8	* In ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' and ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'', most of the names come from a hodgepodge of different East Asian and Native American (Inuit in particular) languages, many of which are rather nonstandard names at that, or standard names with nonstandard pronunciation ("Mai" is spoken as "may" rather than "my"). You also have names drawn from other parts of Asia (like Zaheer and Pathik), Anglicized non-Western names (like June), and Western names changed to look less so (which is how we get "Korra" from "Cora"). To top it all off, there were also a few canon names which simply seem completely out-of-place: Hope, Mai's little brother Tom-Tom, Toph's mother Poppy, mover actress Ginger, and Raiko's wife Buttercup. Sometimes it's significant; Suyin's kids mostly have Chinese-style names (Huan, Wei, Wing), but Baatar is a Mongolian name and Opal is Sanskrit by way of English, and they were the odd ones out - Baatar and Baatar Jr. are non-benders, the latter of who sided with [[PuttingOnTheReich Kuvira]] for most of Season 4, and Opal [[spoiler:is an airbender]], meaning neither is an earthbender unlike the other three.
9	* ''WesternAnimation/TheBackyardigans'': The five kids are named Pablo, Tyrone, Austin, Tasha... and Uniqua.
10	* The titular rodents from ''WesternAnimation/BikerMiceFromMars'' are named Throttle, Modo and... Vinnie, which is [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname short for Vincent]].
11	* ''WesternAnimation/BlueEyeSamurai'': Some characters have regular Japanese names (such as Mizu, Taigen and Akemi) and some are just eccentric (''Abijah'' Fowler's first name being practically unheard of in the anglosphere, being the name of a legendary Hebrew king almost never found outside that context).
12	* Very rarely will there be a character with a normal name in ''WesternAnimation/{{Chowder}}'', since most of them are named after food. The only regular names include Joe, Charlie and Kevin.
13	* Some of the main kids in ''WesternAnimation/{{Clarence}}'' include Clarence, Jeff, Chelsea, Sumo, Belson, and Malessica.
14	* ''WesternAnimation/CampLazlo'':
15	** There's characters with unusual names like Ping Pong, Algonquin and Clam, and characters with comparatively mundane names like Gretchen, Dave and Samson.
16	** The five Platypus brothers. Cheesly, Alpine, Fancy Pants... and then Phillip and Edward.
17	* In ''WesternAnimation/TheCrumpets'', the titular family have oddly-named members like Triceps, Fynartz, Ohoh, Ditzy, Bother and Blister, Grownboy, and Pfff, and the kids' adoptive cousin is Cordless. Other characters' names include Cassandra, Isadora (the Crumpets' Granny), and Steve.
18	* ''WesternAnimation/DinosaurTrain'': There are dinosaurs that have normal names (Gilbert, Don, Cory, Annie, etc), and then we have characters with names like Tiny and Shiny.
19	* WesternAnimation/{{Doug}}, Beebe and Patti (short for Patricia) are relatively normal. And then you have Skeeter (short for Mosquito), Chalky and Skunky.
20	* Since the cast of ''WesternAnimation/DogsInSpace'' are, well, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin dogs]], their names have a fairly large variety. Just in the main cast we have names ranging from "Chonies" to "Garbage" to "Ed".
21	* In ''WesternAnimation/DoraTheExplorer'', there are normal names like Dora, Isa, and Benny, mixed in with names like Boots, [[ADogNamedDog Backpack]], and Swiper.
22	* ''WesternAnimation/DragonsRidersOfBerk'': In a village populated with folk such as Stoick, Gobber, Hiccup, Snotlout, and Astrid, an exotic foreign beauty who crashes on their shores is named [[SpecialPersonNormalName Heather]]. "Astrid" is a perfectly normal Scandinavian name. The rest of her age cohort consists of Hiccup, Snotlout, Fishlegs, Ruffnut, and Tuffnut.
23	* ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'': The cul-de-sac kids consist of the titular Eds, [[BrattyHalfPint Sarah]], [[CampStraight Jimmy]], [[JerkJock Kevin]], [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Jonny]] and [[CompanionCube Plank]], [[HeadTurningBeauty Nazz]], and [[FunnyForeigner Rolf]]. Now, the names of Plank and Rolf make sense since Plank [[ADogNamedDog is a piece of wood]], and Rolf is from [[WhereTheHellIsSpringfield an unknown location in Europe]] he refers to as TheOldCountry, but other than the possibility that Nazz is named after a band, her name is the strangest.
24	** Nazz could be short for Natalie, so it could go either way.
25	* WesternAnimation/EonKid, a Kids' WB CG-animated cartoon features robotic warriors such as Gaff, Eiger, and Ssampac.... and also humans/robots named Marty, Ally, and George.
26	* ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddParents'',
27	** There are some fairies with common names (Wanda, [[StellarName Cosmo]], Simon) among the weird ones (Poof, Juandissimo, Twinkle Flitter Glitter, [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Jorgen von Strangle]]). This is lampshaded in one of the ''WesternAnimation/OhYeahCartoons'' shorts, where Timmy gets a temp and asks what his "cool fairy name" is. It's Jeff.
28	** The Yugopotamians. The main one, Mark, has a common Earth name. So do his peers, Jeff and Eric. But his parents are named King Grippulon and Queen Jipjorulac.
29	* Typically, characters in ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones'' have normal first names and unusual last name (e.g. Barney Rubble). However, one character is named "Bamm-Bamm".
30	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'':
31	** Zoidberg's little-mentioned first name is "John".
32	** The episode where Leela's surname (which is placed before her given name) was revealed to be "Turanga" was the same where Fry's first name was revealed to be "Phillip". Naturally, it's {{Lampshade\|Hanging}}d [[PlayedForLaughs For Laughs]]:
33	---> '''Fry:''' Wait a minute, "Turanga?"\
34	'''Amy:''' That's her name, Phillip.\
35	'''Bender:''' (SpitTake) '''PHILLIP?!'''
36	** Bender's full name is Bender [[MetaphorIsMyMiddleName Bending]] Rodriguez.
37	** The recurring news anchor team of Morbo and Linda (green alien and blonde human, respectively) and police partners Smitty and URL (human and robot; latter name pronounced "Earl").
38	* The now-defunct Mills Corporation, an owner of several U.S. malls, had a kids' club called Muggsy's Meadow. Its mascots included Muggsy Beaver, Carl Raccoon, Lilly Spider and Tred Opossum. All four even got their own cartoon, ''WesternAnimation/GetMuggsy''.
39	* ''WesternAnimation/GoofTroop'' has a split between characters with everyday names and characters with common words that are atypical for names. In the main cast alone, there's Max, Pete, and PJ (Pete Jr.) on one side, and Goofy and Pistol on the other, while Peg sounds like an everyday name but has a common word source (as a MythologyGag to [[WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts Peg-Leg Pete]]). Counting movie and minor characters, there are characters named Debbie, Douglas, Rose, Marty, Bob, Wally, Bobby, Roxanne, Stacey, Bradley, and Sylvia, as well as Giblets, Tooth, Nail, Leech, Coupe, Spud, and Tank.
40	* {{Parodied\|Trope}} on ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls''--the five [[OurGnomesAreWeirder gnomes]] who make up Norman are named Jeff, Carson, Jason, Steve and Shmebulock. For that matter, the main cast consists of characters like Grunkle (Great Uncle) Stan, Wendy (normal), Mabel, Gideon, [[spoiler:(Stan)Ford]] (somewhat unusual), Dipper and Soos (weird). "Dipper," however, is eventually [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname revealed to be a nickname]] while Soos is [[WriteWhoYouKnow based on a real person]] named Jesús, and this is also the name the twins find on his ID at one point. Although both Dipper and Soos have been indicated to be nicknames at some point in the show [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname that everyone just uses to refer to them]]. Bizarrely, probably the most normal name out of the main cast ([[LouisCypher at least in terms of first names]]) belongs to an EldritchAbomination. His name is (wait for it...) [[spoiler:[[TomTheDarkLord Bill.]]]]
41	** This stops being a {{downplayed\|Trope}} or SubvertedTrope once you move on to secondary and tertiary characters. THESE go from Robbie, Nate, Lee, Toby, and Lazy Susan (normal), to Candy, Tambry, Bud, Pacifica, Preston, and Priscilla (unusual) to Grenda, Toot-Toot [=McBumberSnazzle=] (originally Ivan, but [[CloudCuckoolander Mabel]] gave him a new name when he lost his memory) and Fiddleford (middle name Hadron)(weird).[[MonsterOfTheWeek And that's just the human characters.]]
42	** Similar to WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse, the last names run the gamut as well, but tend to lean toward the Aerith side. In rough order from normal to weird, there's (Jesús) Ramirez (named after one of the main artists of the show), Jiminez, Deputy Durland, [[BadassFamily Pines]], (Candy) Chiu (possibly made up, definitely a pun), Sheriff Blubbs, (Robbie) Valentino, (Wendy) Corduroy, (Pacifica) Northwest, (Fiddleford Hadron) [=McGucket=], (Toby) Determined, (Gideon) Gleeful, (Tad) Strange, (Bill) [[LouisCypher Cipher]], (Grenda) [[AscendedFanon Grendinator.]]
43	* The Tobin clan of ''WesternAnimation/TheGreatNorth''. Consisting of father Beef, sons Wolf, Ham and Moon, future daughter-in-law Honeybee...and Judy.
44	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Green Eggs and Ham\|2019}}'': Contrast Sam and Guy's fairly normal names to the typically outlandish ones of the other cast members. Michellee (''not'' Michelle) and [=EB=] (short for ''Elana''beth) exist somewhere in the wide gulf between those extremes.
45	* ''WesternAnimation/HarryAndHisBucketFullOfDinosaurs'' has the humans that all have normal names, but the dinosaurs' names vary. Some have normal names (Patsy, Sid, Nancy), while others have made-up names (Taury, Trike, Steggy) and one straddles the line, by being named "Pterence", with a P.
46	* The main characters and staff of the titular ''WesternAnimation/HazbinHotel'' are named Angel Dust, Vaggie, Alastor, Niffty, Husk, and Charlotte "Charlie" (who ironically is the only one who was born a demon and never a human). Somewhat justified, as Sinners, [[DemonOfHumanOrigin human-born demons]], are using nicknames with the exception of Alastor. We know that the real names of Angel Dust and Vaggie are Anthony and Vagatha (which is fictitious but at least is a play on "Agatha") respectively.
47	* The royal couple from ''WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse1983'' were King Randor and Queen Marlena, although the latter was supposed to be an earthling. In fact, Prince Adam himself is a pretty plain name, as is Duncan, Man-at-Arms' actual name. The cartoon only has a few odd names as far as recurring characters are concerned (the ones where real names are known) like Teela and Adam's sister Adora (from [[WesternAnimation/SheRaPrincessOfPower the spin-off]]), though her name is fairly standard but just rare in real life.
48	* Three of the five main characters of ''WesternAnimation/HigglytownHeroes'' are named Wayne, Kip, and Fran. What are the names of the other two? Twinkle and Eubie.
49	* In ''WesternAnimation/HorribleHistories'', the protagonists are called Mo and ''Stitch''. TheBully has a normal first name and unusual last name- his full name is Darren Dongle.
50	* ''WesternAnimation/InfinityTrain'' has a wide variety here. The character names range from relatively normal ([[PlantPerson Nancy]], [[MakingASplash Randall]], [[CatsAreMagic Samantha]], Mikayla, [[ParentsAsPeople Andy, Megan]], [[spoiler:[[TragicVillain Amelia]]]], Ryan) to somewhat unusual but still plausible ([[BadassBookworm Tulip]], [[LoyalAnimalCompanion Atticus]], [[MirrorSelf MT]]/[[spoiler:Lake]], [[spoiler:[[TheLostLenore Alrick]]]]) to practically made up ([[RobotBuddy One-One]]).
51	* Parodied by the Irkens in ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim:'' while most have odd names like "Zim" or "Skoodge," there's also an Irken named "Tim" and another named "Bob." (And then there are "Red" and "Purple"…) The humans have this too: names like Dib and Gaz are somewhat quirky, while the names of minor characters can range from the normal ("Gretchen," "Brian") to the utterly bizarre ("The Letter M" or even "Poonchy, Drinker of Hate," both of whom are just normal skoolchildren).
52	* ''WesternAnimation/JackTheExplorer'' has characters with common names (Jack and Sam), characters with more rare names (Nico and Yoki), and characters with completely [[{{Pun}} alien]] names (Rocket and Chip).
53	* ''WesternAnimation/JamiesGotTentacles'': Names on the planet Blarb include Blurbo III and Blurbina, and Jamie and Josette.
54	* ''WesternAnimation/TheJetsons'': There are George, Jane, Judy…and Elroy!!! One of those names is much rarer than the others.
55	* In ''WesternAnimation/JuliusJr'': There's Julius, Clancy, Ping and... Sheree?
56	* ''WesternAnimation/KaBlam'' featured an alien and a caveman respectively code-named Prometheus and Bob.
57	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Kaeloo}}'': Olaf is the only one with a normal name; the others have weird names like Stumpy[[note]]In the show's original concept, he had stumps instead of hands[[/note]] and Quack Quack[[note]]A duck who can only say "Quack"[[/note]]. This is discussed in seasons 4 and 5, which reveal that these names are considered bizarre in-universe as well. Quack-Quack was named by a young Kaeloo when she found his egg, Stumpy's family is known for giving terrible names to their children that everyone else finds ridiculous, and Mr. Cat has the fairly normal first name of Hector.
58	* ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfVoxMachina'':
59	** The members of the titular Vox Machina are Keyleth, Grog, the twins Vex'ahlia and Vax'ildan, Pike, Scanlan... and Percy.
60	** Similarly, the {{Arc Villain}}s of Season 1, Lord and Lady Briarwood, are named Sylas and Delilah respectively.
61	* ''WesternAnimation/LEGOCityAdventures'': There are characters named Duke, Tom, Billy, Madison, Mary, Morris, Sam, Carol, Solomon, and well “Bob” while others are named Harl, Tippy, Freya, Rooky, and Clemmons.
62	** In addition there are common last names like McLoud, Bennett, and Sinclair while others include [=DeTain=], Hubbs, Doorman, and Fendrich.
63	* A deliberate example from ''WesternAnimation/LesSisters'': Marine and Wendy have to come up with aliases to get into a place they were banned from, so they come up with two names: Marina (a fairly normal name) and... Wendynoodle.
64	* In ''WesternAnimation/TheLionGuard'', just about every character has a Swahili name, as in ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994'': Kion, Bunga, Fuli, Ono, Beshte, Janja, Reirei, you name it... and then there's a zebra named ''Thurston''.
65	* ''WesternAnimation/ALittleCurious'': Three main characters are “Bob” the Ball, Mary Jane, and Doris the Door. Who are the others? Mop, Mr. String, Plush, Little Cup, Lacey, Mr. Shoe, Mrs. Shoe, Pad, and Pencil.
66	* ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'':
67	** We have names that went from originally normal like Lucy, Bobby, Luan, and Clyde to downright "made-up" like Rusty Spokes.
68	** You also have made-up last names like Loud, Spokes, Gurdle, Hunnicutt, and Grouse while others are real names like Johnson, Yates, and Miller.
69	* ''WesternAnimation/MightyDucksTheAnimatedSeries''. The male ducks who appear are named Wildwing, Nosedive, Duke, Canard, and Grin (whose real name is Check). The female ducks who appear are Tanya, Mallory, and Lucretia. Okay then.
70	* ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'' has Nino, Chloe, Max, Kim, Ivan, Sabrina, Zoe, Marc, Rose... then Marinette and Juleka. "Marinette" is a real yet uncommon name, to the point that the character is probably its most famous use, but "Juleka" appears to have been made up for the show.
71	* ''WesternAnimation/MollyOfDenali'': Molly, Trini, Walter, Layla etc are typical names. Tooey (Tookkone), not so much. It’s a case of Melting-Pot Nomenclature, as many characters have both an English and a Native Alaskan name. [[note]] e.g. Molly Shahnyaa, Walter Yaadekuh, Layla Dak Niighit. (Trini is from Texas.) [[/note]] Tooey is merely the only main character to be called by his Native (nick)name.
72	* ''Franchise/MyLittlePony'': By default, pony names are very descriptive and unique to each individual, consisting of a noun or short phrase that refers to the character's appearance, personality, talents or background, such as Wind Whistler, Bonbon, Minty, Twilight Sparkle, Sunny Starscout or the like. Occasionally, however, more mundane, "human" names turn up.
73	** ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyTales'' has a lot of this. Mares have the sort of names you expect from ''MLP'', while stallions have down-to-earth names like Ace and Teddy (though Teddy has the UnmanlySecret of still having a teddy bear). The only example of a truly typical-for-''MLP'' name among male ''Tales'' characters is a squire named Squire.
74	** ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'': Most ponies have names typically of the franchise, but occasional "normal" names like (Pony/Donut) Joe turn up.
75	*** Pinkie Pie's middle name is Diane -- the only example of a "normal" name amongst the Mane Six.
76	*** Borderline cases, where the name is both a real name and a descriptive pun, include Trixie (a stage magician, who thus performs magic ''tricks''); Babs, whose full name is Babs Seed as in "bad seed"; Maud, whose full name, Maud Pie, sounds like "mud pie"; and Granny Smith, whose name references [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granny_Smith a variant of apple]] and her status as the Apple family's matriarch.
77	*** While most other species follow their own descriptive naming trends, griffons and yaks all have real-life names -- with the sole caveat that griffon names all start with "G" (Gilda, Gabby, Gustave...) and yak names with Y (with the exception of the first one named, Prince Rutherford).
78	*** There's also the changeling "[[https://www.derpibooru.org/1021751 Kevin]]", initially named by 4Chan's /mlp/ board but ultimately became AscendedFanon.
79	*** The Young Six are named Gallus, Ocellus, Sandbar, Silverstream, Smolder -- and Yona, the only actual name (meaning "dove" in Hebrew).
80	** ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyANewGeneration'' makes particularly noticeable use of this; in addition to the usual pony names, there are also major characters with names like Izzy or Phyllis, entirely regular names without even the secondary puns of the previous generation.
81	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Ninjago}}'' has Kai, Cole, Jay, Zane, Lloyd, and Garmadon. Which of those names stick out to you? (To be fair, the last one is the name of the BigBad. Lloyd also shares it as a last name, because he is [[LukeIAmYourFather Lord Garmadon's son.]])
82	* ''WesternAnimation/OggyAndTheCockroaches'': There are characters with names like Jack, Joey and... Oggy.
83	* ''WesternAnimation/OKKOLetsBeHeroes'': A subtle joke with the naming conventions is that most of the characters have names like "Radicles", and "Red Action", but their robot foes have mundane names like "Shannon" and "Darrell".
84	* In ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'', names on the Boiling Isles range from archaic names like Edalyn, Edric and Emira; to rare but still occasionally used in the real world like Willow, Augustus, Lilith and Hunter; and then every so often completely normal names like Steve,
85	* ''WesternAnimation/PawPatrol'':
86	** We have pups with common names like Chase, Skye, Marshall, and Ella, pups with more rare names like Rocky, Ar(r)by, and Tuck, and then there's names like Zuma, Rubble, Everest, Tracker, and Sweetie.
87	** Among the human children, we have names like Alex, Danny, Katie, Carlos, Harold, and then there's Ryder.
88	* Okay, so you have a show, who has main characters with names like Perry, Candace, Buford, Linda, Vanessa and Isabella. The names of the show's title characters? WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb.
89	** Then within the show itself, Candace was always going on about how her children with Jeremy would be named Xavier and Amanda. Then in the episode where the boys travel 20 years into the future they meet their future niece Amanda, and their TWO nephews, Xavier and Fred.
90	* In ''WesternAnimation/PlanBee'', Names like Beatrice and Bonnie show up alongside the likes of Afik and Belzar.
91	* ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'': The titular characters consist of Blossom and… Buttercup & Bubbles.
92	** The [=GangGreen=] Gang consists of Arturo & Billy and… Ace, Grubber, & Snake[[note]][[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname who’s real name Sanford which is still uncommon]][[/note]].
93	* On ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo'', we have Mindy, Sean, Sydney......and then there's Jet, which is a rare boy's name.
94	* ''Franchise/ScoobyDoo'':
95	** Inverted with the kids' first names. In this case, we have three relatively rare names: Daphne, Velma and [[EmbarrassingFirstName Norville]] ([[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname Shaggy]], that is), plus one more "normal" - Fred (short for Frederick).
96	** Played more straight with their last names - Blake, Dinkley, Rogers and Jones, respectively. The odd one is Dinkley.
97	* ''WesternAnimation/SheRaAndThePrincessesOfPower'': Most of the names in the show are pretty wild, if sometimes [[MeaningfulName bluntly descriptive]], with Adora, Catra, Glimmer, Bow, Mermista, Scorpia etc. Queen Angella's name is ''almost'' normal, but is also bluntly descriptive because she is essentially an angel. Adora’s name is a standard feminine name (Latin for “Beloved”) but it’s quite uncommon. Then there are a few normal names - Lonnie, Kyle, Rogelio, Bow's fathers George and Lance, and, in possibly the weirdest juxtaposition of all, Emily, who is Entrapta's pet Horde robot.
98	* The two main characters from ''WesternAnimation/ShinboneAlley'' are called Archy and Mehitabel.
99	* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'':
100	** The kids at school whom Bart hangs out with include Milhouse, Lewis, Nelson...and Richard. (Guess which one was quietly phased out of the show.)
101	** The guys Homer is always meeting at Moe's bar include Lenny, Carl, Larry, Sam (all fairly common mid-20th-century names), and Barney (more of an early 20th-century name).
102	** Two of the cops on the Springfield police force are named Lou and Eddie. Their boss is named Clancy.
103	** The Springfield mob consists of (Fat) Tony, Louie, and...Legs. (In one episode Legs starts to reveal where he got his nickname, [[TheUnreveal but gets interrupted by the plot]].)
104	* ''WesternAnimation/SolarOpposites'': The aliens consist of two Aeriths (Korvo and Yumyulack) and two Bobs (Terry and Jesse). Interestingly, the trope seems to be in effect for the sake of further conveying that the former two dislike being on Earth, while the latter two enjoy it.
105	* ''WesternAnimation/SpaceChickensInSpace'' The Principal is named Glargg while his brother is named Brian.
106	* ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'': The show has quirky creative names like "Spongebob" and "Squidward" alongside more normal sounding names like "Patrick" and "Sandy".
107	* ''WesternAnimation/StarTrekLowerDecks'': Names like "Jack" and "Carol" sit comfortably next to "Samanthan" and "Bradward". Played with, since the more usual names are shortened to something more "normal", like Sam and Brad.
108	* ''WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil'':
109	** This occurs even among the Earth kids. Some of Star's class includes Marco, Janna, Jackie, Alfonso (normal), Star herself, Ferguson (last name O'Durguson), and [=StarFan13=].
110	** [[HumanAliens Mewmans]] tend toward unusual names in general, either in the sense of made-up ones like Ruberiot or nature-based ones like [[StellarThemeNaming Star, Moon]] and River. There is, however, the general weirdness of Star's family being "the Johansens" on one side and "the Butterflies" on the other.
111	** Antagonist Ludo's very large family all have names that would be unusual by human standards and ending in "-udo"... [[OddNameOut except for]] Dennis.
112	** Tom's parents, Lady and Lord Lucitor, a.k.a. Wrathmelior and Dave. To be fair, one's a demon and the other a Mewman.
113	* ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsRebels'' has realistic names like Ezra Bridger and Jun Sato alongside more colorful ones like Kanan Jarrus (whose real name is [[spoiler:Caleb Dume]]) and Garazeb Orrelios.
114	* The main characters of ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' are named [[RockThemeNaming Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl]], and, as you probably guessed, Steven. The full human characters add an extra layer to this. Their names range from fairly common and mundane, such as Connie, Sadie and Greg, to more obscure, like Lars, Ronaldo and Kofi, to [[EdibleThemeNaming food themed]], like Sour Cream and Onion. Their last names ([[OnlyOneName that we know of]]) vary from the mundane (Miller, Dewey, Maheswaran) to the slightly-improbable (Smiley, Fryman, Pizza). The main character and his father's bizarre surname "Universe" is actually something the latter made up as part of his musician career.
115	* Of the cast of ''WesternAnimation/StationX'', you have Jesse, Davis... Kandi, Seven, Slate, and Knob.
116	* On the planet Galaluna in ''WesternAnimation/SymBionicTitan'', you have people with Earth names like Edward, Arthur, Lance and Ilana as opposed to characters like Modula and Baron.
117	* The residents of ''WesternAnimation/SummerCampIsland'' all have normal names. From Oscar, Oliver, Susie, Alice, etc. And then there's ''Hedgehog''.
118	* ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'':
119	** Hosts are Chris [=McLean=] and Chef Hatchet.
120	** The first generation campers are named Beth, Bridgette, Cody, Courtney, Duncan, Eva, Geoff, Gwen, Harold, Heather, Izzy, Justin, Katie, Lindsay, Noah, Owen, Sadie, Sierra, Trent, & Tyler, and… Alejandro, Blainley, DJ, Ezekiel, & Leshawna. The former’s name is common in Spanish and the second’s name is [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname her nickname]]. Her real name is Mildred. [[OnlyKnownByInitials DJ is just his initials]], short for Devon Joseph.
121	** The second generation campers are named Anne Maria, Cameron, Dakota, Dawn, Jo, Mike, Sam, Scott, Staci, & Zoey, and... B, Brick, & Lightning. B and Lightning [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname go by nicknames]], as they are embarrassed by their real names ([[GenderBlenderName Beverly]] and Rudolph respectively), so the only one who really qualifies as having an odd name is Brick.
122	*** Mike has five alternate personalities named Chester, Vito, & Mal, and… Svetlana & Manitoba Smith. Vito is also technically more common in Italian and Mal is uncommon.
123	** The third generation campers are named Amy, Dave, Ella, Jasmine, Leonard, Max, Rodney, Scarlett, Shawn, & Topher, and... Beardo, Samey, Sky, & Sugar. Samey's name is actually Sammy (short for Samantha), but her BigSisterBully Amy [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname always tells everyone that her name is Samey]]. Beardo also goes by a nickname, but his real name is unknown.
124	** The fourth generation campers are named Axel, Caleb, Chase, Damien, Emma, Julia, Millie, Priya, Raj & Wayne, and... Bowie, MK, Nichelle, Ripper, Scary Girl, & Zee. Scary Girl and MK are OnlyKnownByTheirNickname and [[OnlyKnownByInitials Initials]] respectively, with their real names being Lauren and Mary Kate respectively. Zee also goes by a nickname, but his real name, Hezekias, is still very uncommon.
125	** ''[[WesternAnimation/TotalDramaPresentsTheRidonculousRace The Ridonculous Race]]'' introduces host Don and new competitors Brody, Carrie, Chet, Devin, Dwayne, Emma, Gerry, Jacques, Jay, Jen, Kelly, Laurie, Lorenzo, Mary, Mickey, Miles [[note]][[GenderBlenderName who’s a female with a masculine name]][[/note]], Pete, Ryan, Stephanie, Tammy, Taylor, & Tom, and… Crimson, Ellody, Ennui, Josee, Junior, [=MacArthur=], Kitty, Rock, Sanders, & Spud. Junior, who’s Dwayne’s son, is actually is called [[OneSteveLimit Dwayne like his father]] but [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname goes by Junior]] to avoid confusion. [=MacArthur=] also goes by her nickname. Her real name is Valentina which is still uncommon in English.
126	** ''WesternAnimation/TotalDramaRama'': The episode, “Gnome More, Mr. Nice Guy” features lawn gnomes that Chef named Winky, Blinky, and Steve!
127	* ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'' names tend to be cool-sounding descriptive English nouns, verbs, or portmanteaus, occasionally modified to be trademark-friendly, like Ravage, Bluestreak, or Ironhide. However, a handful still stick out. Optimus Prime, and various other "leader" characters, tend to have [[GratuitousLatin Latin names,]] a couple characters have names that are words in other languages (Rapido, Gekisoumaru), a number of characters have names that are basically gibberish (Violen Jiger, Unicron), and a handful even have human names in various languages (Raiden, Kirk).
128	* ''WesternAnimation/VoltronLegendaryDefender'': Understandable due to the show being set in space, but some of the human characters have more unusual names, and some of the aliens have names that could realistically be given to humans. The seven main characters are Shiro (human), Lance (human), Coran (alien), Hunk (human), Allura (alien), Pidge (human, but to be fair her real name is Katie), and Keith ([[HalfHumanHybrid human/alien]]). For the (human) Holt family, there's Colleen, Sam, Matt, and Pidge/Katie. Among the aliens are Shay, Nyma, Kolivan, Rolo, Lotor, Krolia, Sendak, Ryner, Alfor, Narti, Acxa, Honerva, Kova (a cat), Hira, Sal, Slav, Rax, and Thace.
129	* Sometimes lists of names are shown for the [[AdorableEvilMinions Watchdogs]] in ''WesternAnimation/WanderOverYonder''. A lot of them are completely normal, but then there's stuff like Treasure. [[HyperCompetentSidekick Oh, and Commander Peepers.]] The five main characters in the show are called Lord Hater, Commander Peepers, Lord Dominator, Wander (formally Tumbleweed)...and Sylvia.[[note]](The least humanoid of the five. Her mom's name is Dorothy.) Wander has been confirmed to be a nickname, and it certainly stands to reason that Hater and Dominator aren't their real names either. [[/note]]
130	* In the HumanAliens World of ''WesternAnimation/WinxClub'', the titular Club is pretty evenly split between Bobs— Flora, Stella, and Aisha/Layla, and Aeriths— Bloom, Tecna, and Musa. The Specialists play this even straighter with normal names Brandon, Timmy, and Roy, and then the stranger Sky, Riven, Helia, Nabu, and Nex.
131	** The supporting characters in the Magix dimension include Faragonda, Valtor, Saladin, Radius, Hoe-Bow, Diaspro, Miele, Chimera, Teredor, Niobe, Oritel, Codatorta, and Zarathustra, as well as Daphne, Cassandra, Lucy, Luna, Marion, Miriam, Jared, and Anne.
132	** There's also the TerribleTrio of witches, the Trix, which are the unique Icy and Stormy, and the regular Darcy.
133	* In ''WesternAnimation/{{Wonkidos}}'', the humans have normal names like Evan, but the Wonkidos are called things like Wobbles and Apps.
134	* ''WesternAnimation/WorkItOutWombats'': While Malik, Zadie, and Zeke are normal names, their grandmother is named Super (because she's the ''Super''intendent of the Treeborhood), which is an adjective rather than a proper noun in real life.
135	* ''WesternAnimation/WowWowWubbzy'':
136	** The main characters consist of Wubbzy, Walden, and Widget then the [[SixthRanger new member]] is a girl named Daizy.
137	*** In addition, Wubbzy was originally named Mopsy, Widget was originally named Flopsy, and Walden was originally named Ted.
138	** Then there’s a recurring character trio named Huggy, Buggy, and Earl.
139	* ''WesternAnimation/XavierRiddleAndTheSecretMuseum'': Xavier, Brad, and then there's Yadina. So far, searching up her name doesn't turn up to much results besides her and the name "Yadin".
140	* The characters in ''WesternAnimation/XiaolinShowdown'' have names with different degrees of normality. Jack Spicer has a common English name. Clay and Chase (despite being Asian) also have viable English names, though not as common. Then come the characters with foreign names that are still normal for their culture, like Raimundo (Brazilian), Kimiko (Japanese) and Fung (Chinese). Lastly, there are characters whose names are straight-up exotic, like Dojo and Wuya.
