* In ''Anime/CaptainEarth'', Daichi gets rather flustered whenever someone called him, Captain. Mainly due to the figurative weight of the word.
* In the ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'' manga (and therefore Brotherhood), the second Greed tends to correct people whenever they call him [[spoiler:Ling]]. In fact, Ed remarks it's too confusing for him to tell which is which, and therefore calls him [[spoiler:Greedling]]. Greed is not happy about this.

* The main character of \'\'LightNovel/{{Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita}}\'\' doesn\'t like people calling her \"the granddaughter\" (her grandfather is rather important). What [[NoNameGiven she does like being called isn\'t clear]].
* Cruz from \'\'Manga/{{Needless}}\'\' is called \"Yamada\" by Eve who is bad with names, which annoys him and immediately states his name. Teruyama gets the same treatment, ending up with \"Uchida\".
* Komari from \'\'Manga/NonNonBiyori\'\' doesn\'t like being called \"Koma-chan\" by her BigLittleSister because she finds it belittling because of her [[HeightAngst short stature]], since \"[[JapaneseHonorifics -chan]]\" is an honorific mostly used for children. What\'s {{iron|y}}ic is that the suffix actually fits her.
* One scene in \'\'Manga/OnePiece\'\':
-->\'\'\'Sanji:\'\'\' Stop calling me \"little bastard\"!\\
\'\'\'Zeff:\'\'\' Fine, little bastard.
* PlayedForDrama in \'\'Spirit Circle\'\'. After successfully building a sphinx, everyone in Flors\' hometown started calling him Father Sphinx, much to his annoyance since he was dissatisfied with his sphinx. This made him miserable for his entire life.
* \'\'Manga/{{Upotte}}\'\'. Jiisuri/G3\'s little sisters HK And MP don\'t like being called Chuu-3 and Chi-3 respectively due to the fact they don\'t like being compared to said big sister.

* Franchise/IndianaJones objects to the nickname \"Junior\", but goes by the nickname \"Indiana\".
* The psycho-comedy \'\'Film/HighAnxiety\'\' by Mel Brooks has his character, Richard Thorndyke, [=PsD=] encounter his old psychology teacher. Thorndyke greets him using a mnemonic for his name: \"Professor Little Old Man!\" The elderly psychologist swats at Thorndyke irritably, correcting him: \"Lilloman! Lilloman!\" The mnemonic would be excusable in a psyche student, but he expected better from a colleague.

* In \'\'Literature/TheDresdenFiles\'\', the Archangel Uriel objects very emphatically to Harry calling him Uri, mostly because the \"el\" part is what notes his angelic nature. He does not, however, object to Mr. Sunshine.
[[AC:Video Games]]
* Dist, from \'\'VideoGame/TalesOfTheAbyss\'\', absolutely hates his code name \"The Reaper\" due to its inelegance and demands to be called \"The Rose\" instead. Unfortunately for him, his demands fall on deaf ears.
