Overly Long Name / Video Games

• Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown has Mihaly Dumitru Margareta Corneliu Leopold Blanca Karol Aeon Ignatius Raphael Maria Niketas A. Shilage. Dr. Schroeder says that Mihaly’s long name is because of how he was the crown prince of the Kingdom of Shilage before it was annexed by Erusea, and he rats it off like there’s nothing special about it.
• Jorge Garcia of Backyard Sports's real name is Jorge Raoul Luis Garcia III.
• In Book of Hours, one of the visitor full address is Gräfin^note the German honorific for Countess Friederike Dagmar Sophia Theresia Helena Benigna von Nagelsburg. Thankfully, she would very much rather not be refered as such, instead going by her much shorter nickname "Daymare".
• Borderlands:
  • The Borderlands 2 DLC Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt features a character named Dietmar von Heinrichzimmerschneit. It's not his real name. His real name is so long that you would starve to death trying to say it.
  • Borderlands 3 has the playable character Moserah Hayussinian Yan-Lun al-Amir Andreyevna, or "Moze" for short.
• The adventure mode in Carmageddon TDR 2000 has an NPC named "Dick the-most-ridiculously-long-name-in-the-world the Shopkeeper". The adventure mode is activated and played using the game's console, and that every time you need to talk/attack someone, you need to write the command followed by their full name. You can use the up key to re-write a command, but due to a glitch, you'll have to write it all yet again if you do it too many times.
• In Chronicles of Albian: The Magic Convention the castle cook introduces herself as Burnadettilia Florencine Pearlesme Gertrudelle O'Harriett Rosagilda, Burnadette for short.

• In Dragon Age: Inquisition, we find out that Cassandra Pentaghast is royalty (seventy-eighth in line for the throne of Nevarra). If you bring her to the Orlesian ball mission, you also find out that she has at least five surnames, due to the fact that her family has gained their position through centuries of extremely careful marriages.
  Announcer: Seeker Cassandra Allegra Calogera Portia Filomena—
  Cassandra: Get on with it!
  Announcer: —Pentaghast.
• The Evil Queen Pulsating, Bloated, Festering, Sweaty, Pus-filled, Malformed, Slug-for-a-Butt from the Earthworm Jim video games, cartoon and comics. And to a lesser extent, Professor Monkey-For-A-Head, a scientist with a primate (Monkey Professor-For-A-Head) grafted to his skull.
• The Elder Scrolls
  • In the series' backstory, the legendary Yokudan (Precursors of the Redguards) hero Frandar Hunding actually had the "formal" name of Frandar do Hunding Hel Ansei No Shira. Frandar is his given name, Hunding is the region of his birth, Hel Ansei is a title recognizing him as one of the Ansei, and No Shira recognizes his noble birth.
  • While Altmer normally use Only One Name, a Summerset Isle sidequest in The Elder Scrolls Online involves arranging a duel with a snooty Altmer noble, according to proper High Elf cultural etiquette. Part of this rigid code of conduct includes issuing a formal challenge to the noble using his full name, including "matrilineal, patrilineal, and clan honorifics", and flubbing the name at any point requires you to start over. The noble's full name is "Lirendel Rumilion 'len Inecil Culanarin Salolinwe 'ata Piryaden-Itelnoril Hilnore Firlamil 'cal Ternerben-Nivulirel".
• In Farmington Tales 2: Winter Crop Councilman Wyatt threatens to seize Floyd's farm under the auspices of the Real Estate Restructuring and Rehabilitation Appropriation Adjustment Act of 1923, or RERRAAA for short.
• In Fate/Grand Order, alternate versions of a character get a sort of title to differentiate them, like "Alter" for the character's evil side or "Lily" for a younger version of them. Then we get Jeanne d'Arc's evil side deciding to become Santa Claus for one of the Christmas events, wield a spear, and accidentally turns herself into a child, which makes her full name "Jeanne Alter Lancer Santa Lily". Several jokes are made about this, and Jeanne herself bites her tongue when trying to say the full thing several times.
• In Final Fantasy XII, there is just one boss that constantly calls one of the party members, Princess Ashe, by her full name, 'Ashelia B'nargin Dalmasca'. However, it does help contribute to his Hammy moments, so it can be forgiven.
• Gitaroo Man's Gregorio Siegfried Wilhelm III.
• Gothic II has a merchant who introduces himself as "Abuyin ibn Djadir ibn Omar Kalid ben Hadji al Sharidi".
• In Harvest Moon, Will's full name is William Terri Luce Andrew Karick Johnathan Toriji Hams Reding Roger Sazak Annick Primus Junior Darshaniack the third.

• In Jade Empire, the Outlander, Sir Roderick, is known in full as "Sir Roderick Ponce von Fontlebottom, the Magnificent Bastard".
• Randomly-generated hobo names in Kingdom of Loathing are often this, and can get as ridiculous as: "Burninatin' Gavin "Do You Smell Something Burning?" O'Sullivan, the Guy Who Causes a Temperature-Related Desire to Remove All of One's Clothing." This is appropriate, since the hobos and their names are a reference to the verbosely titled book The Areas of My Expertise.
• King Dedede lengthened his boss fight moniker throughout the Kirby series. Starting with Masked Dedede in Kirby Super Star Ultra, it then became Masked Dedede's Revenge in Kirby: Triple Deluxe and later Giant King Dedede's Revenge in Kirby's Blowout Blast. In-universe, Zan Partizanne from Kirby Star Allies is said to have one of these. Zan's makes slightly more sense in Japanese, where her name is closer to "Zan Parulutizahne".
• In Layton Brothers: Mystery Room, Lucy and Alfendi work for London's New Scotland Yard Serious Crime Division Classified Investigation Agency Headquarters. Since it's a mouthful people just call it Scotland Yard's "Mystery Room" instead.
• In League of Legends, the character Smolder’s real name is Ignacarious Gigantareno Rex Le Spes Offerentis. As his writer put it, “No dragon would name a dragon Smolder.”
• One of the main characters in Legendary Legend introduces herself as Rixislennia'Enlokulier-Horalenfilaasimelle. When she comments to the rest of her newly-formed party that adventurers tend to lengthen their names a bit, Steve mockingly asks if he can change his to Napoleon Moxley Caesar Justanian Nicodemus the 7th.
• Len'en has Clause, whose full name is Wilhelm von Clausewitz Halcyon HISUIMARU.
• In Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's Portable - The Battle of Aces, there is "The Book of Darkness's Darkness Dark Piece Incident", which was shortened into the "Dark Piece Incident" due to redundancy.
• Magical Starsign: The full name of the rabbit village in Puffon is "Honey Mint White Caramel Fudgeflake with Melty Butter and Syrup and Whipped Cream on Top". It was shortened to "Honey Mint" because saying the whole name ended giving everybody a sugar high. Despite this, one inhabitant is actually angry about this and demands that you call the town by its full name.
• Mass Effect:
  • Salarians have rather long full names. In order, they are the salarian's homeworld, nation, city, district, clan name and given name. A salarian NPC on Noveria is referred to as Rannadril Ghan Swa Fulsoom Karaten Narr Eadi Bel Anoleis. Usually they just go by the final two, being the clan name and family name.
  • While not as extreme as salarian names, quarian names can be rather lengthy; for example, Tali's full name in the second game is "Tali'Zorah vas Neema nar Rayya", meaning "Tali of Clan Zorah, crew of the starship Neema, born on the starship Rayya." At one point in the third game she admits that quarian naming conventions can get confusing even to quarians.
• Monkey Island:
  • Haggis McMutton, a burly scotsman in The Curse of Monkey Island, is actually named Heart, Liver And Kidneys Boiled In The Stomach Of The Animal McMutton. His parents were expecting a girl.
  • Escape from Monkey Island brings us Admiral Ricardo Luigi Pierre M'Bengu Chang Nehru O'Hara Casaba III. His family has widely dispersed in-laws.
  • Tales of Monkey Island has Joaquin Jocinto De Meara Alphonso D'Oro, known as just "Joaquin D'Oro". Guybrush is convinced that he should be called "D'Oro the Explorer" (Guybrush's hand slaps him for it).
• Namu Amida Butsu! -UTENA-: Many Buddhas have names consisting of five or six tricky characters as they do in real life, i.e. Fukūjōju Nyorai, Ususama Myōō, and as such often get Only Known by Their Nickname.
  • Some of the skills can also fall prey to this, with Miroku's default 5-star card Enraijishi Ryūgesan'e having eight characters.
• Ollo in The Sunny Valley Fair has the character Clyde Emerson William Edward Montague-Wallingford. Thankfully, he simply goes by "Prince Clyde."
• Persona 3 has Ambiguously Gay French Foreign Exchange student Andre Roland Jean Gérard, or Bebe for short.
  • Spell My Name With An S and the "L/R problem" gives us the alternative "Andre Laurent Jean Gireux", which is somehow even more French. And you still can't logically get Bebe from it.
• In Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice, the full name of Khura'in's Justice Minister is Inga Karkhuul Haw'kohd Dis'nahm Bi'ahni Lawga Ormo Pohmpus Da'nit Ar'edi Iz^note "How could this name be any longer or more pompous than it already is?" Khura'in III.

• Mika Kuouzumiaiginsusutakeizumonokamimeichoujin from the eroge ResortBoin.
• Rockman 4 Minus ∞ has the Holdable Controllable Ring Boomerang (referred to as HCR Boomerang for short).
• Sea of Stars: The Friendly Pirate Yolande uses "Metaphor" Is My Middle Name as a Running Gag. Later in the game, it turns out that she really does have that many middle names, and her full name is "Yolande Earnest Well-Meaning Demolition Busy Lookout Practicality Anytime Service Fortwal".
• In Star Control III (yes, yes, it doesn't exist), the Eternal Ones' name consists of their entire DNA sequence, and drives anything that tries to process it to insanity. This includes computers. "Eternal Ones" is taken from the beginning of their name, and translates to every language of every species in existence. Philosophers suspect that Someone's taking the piss.
  • We get this information, by the way, from the Daktaklakpak. Long in its own way, compared to such species as the VUX or Utwig. Funnily, that's the short version of their name; they take a page from the Eternal Ones' book in having a true name that consists of a gigantic mathematical equation that completely describes the race, its reproduction and its maintenance. They take this to mean they're closer to the Eternal Ones than anyone else, as both have names like these.
  • The previous games also had the Ariloulaleelay, from the planet Falayalaralfali.
• Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People: "Homestar Ruiner" has the Free Country USA Tri-Annual Race to the End of the Race, the winner of which is awarded the Free Country USA Tri-Annual Race to the End of the Race Silver Trophy of Ultimate Destiny.

• Suikoden III gives us Nefentitiri Radames Ampenhetep Iruiktanas Antikoseus Puto Remaios Kureakias Dimetirios Farasmuseian Ishak Saraj Amenenuhet Tatomes Hatshepsut Toto Ank Amen Hortez VI's son, Hortez VII.
• Tale of Food: Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea and Wreaking Havoc on the Arhats; yes, the name of the (real) dish really is that long, even in the original Chinese, which is most likely why its personification here shortens his name to just Ba Xian.
• Tales Series:
  • Tales of the Abyss:
    • Natalia's full name is Natalia Luzu Kimlasca Lanvaldear.
  • In Talesof Destiny 2 and Tales of Graces there's Tremorous Celestial Sundering Shredding Light of Cyclonic Butchery.
• Because of the item naming system in Team Fortress 2, weapons such as a Server-Clearing Specialized Killstreak Botkiller Scattergun Mk. II are not uncommon.
• In Touhou Labyrinth 2, the first Bloodstained Seal boss, the True Final Boss of Ketsui, is named Master Light Wings Close Range Support Cruel Battle Machine E.V.D.
