Fan Nickname/Anime and Manga/Axis Powers Hetalia


 * Nor or Nor-nor: Norway. Sometimes also referred to as "Norge", which is just the Norwegian word for his name.
 * A mochi with an Emoticon resembling America from the author's blog (that became very popular in Japanese fanarts) is nicknamed "Ameriblob" or "Mochimerica"
 * Wanwan, "Mei Mei" -- Taiwan. The first is initially a somewhat derisive reference used by Mainland Chinese for the island and its residents; the second means "Plum Blossom" in Chinese, which she wears on her head, and is also the flower symbol of Taiwan.
 * The Forehead Four -- Denmark, Thailand, Netherlands, and Australia, known as such for their Wild Hair and prominent foreheads.
 * Gilbo -- Prussia, after his human name, Gilbert Beilschmidt.
 * If anyone becomes friendly with him, expect the name Gil to show up. This is annoyingly prominent in PruCan.
 * Gilbird -- The yellow chick seen sitting on Prussia's head during the 2009 April Fool's event.
 * The Bad Company Trio -- The increasingly popular OT 3 of Prussia, Spain and France. Also known as the "Bad Friends Trio" and the "Bad Touch Trio".
 * Other trios include The Outcasts (America, England, Japan; named such for isolationism) and The Pitiful Brothers Trio (Prussia, England, Denmark for being bad influences).
 * Recently, the nickname Awesome Trio (America, Denmark, and Prussia) has gotten popular.
 * Also, FACE for the family unit/foursome of France, America, Canada, and England.
 * The Magic Trio, consisting of England, Norway and Romania, has been popping up, due to their ties with magic and/ or supernatural things (it hasn't been confirmed yet as to whether Norway actually does magic).
 * JOKER -- US x UK, from Jones & Kirkland. (It's more obvious in Japanese where it's pronounced the same as "Joker.")
 * Iggy -- UK. From "Igirisu," which is is "Britain" in Japanese. The Western fandom took this a step further and uses "Iggy" as America's nickname for England in fanfics, though technically it was France who coined the term in the 2007 Christmas Bloodbath strips.
 * Igiko -- Gender Flip version of UK.
 * Similary, Ameriko for the Gender Flip USA.
 * Chibirisu -- baby England.
 * Legolas for Germania.
 * MKC -- The nickname for the Hetalia's theme song, "Marukaite Chikyuu"
 * Katyusha (or Katya for short) as Ukraine's human first name; Katyusha is a Russian name (diminutive of "Yekaterina" aka "Katherine") and a term for rocket artillery.
 * Pubertalia -- Italy during, well... puberty, from the strip when his voice changes from his normal Chibitalia voice and he is revealed to be male. Other nicknames that end with '-talia' also exist.
 * Nyoitsu- female Germany, a combination of 'Nyotalia' (a fanon term for Hetalia genderbending, "nyo" being one of the readings of the kanji for "woman") and the Japanese word for Germany (Doitsu). There's also 'Koruko' for female Russia.
 * Also, Mangary for Male Hungary.
 * That F*cking Island- A derogatory term used for the island that appears in the beach-themed Stock Footage in various episodes of the anime. To be fair, the island did have basis in the manga, but as a minor setting that appeared in about three short strips (without the beach battles).
 * Chibimano- The younger version of South Italy (Romano), referred to by this to differentiate him from his brother, although both would technically be "Chibitalias".
 * Lars -- Netherlands/Holland.
 * Bella/Bel -- Belgium.
 * "Bella" has also been used for Belarus.
 * Flying Mint Bunny -- Thanks to FUNimation's dub clip, England's green rabbit-fairy thing (who had no name mentioned before) was referred to as this, and fans caught on.
 * Lately it has been referred to as just "FMB" and the capslock community has made it their god.
 * And Herr Stick is FMB's lover and fellow god. YMMV as that is not an official pairing (if there is such in Hetalia) and Herr Stick/Germany fans may beg to differ.
 * And now when Norway and England started to be friends on a strip of the Bloodbath 2011, Norway has this cute bunny/x being that is being named Flying Leaf Bunny.
 * Canada's Gender Flip is known as Canako, from Canada and -ko, the Japanese suffix meaning "girl"
 * Canadamochi, for the purple-eyed mochi with Canada's Idiot Hair.
 * Workbitch Bartholomew, for England's unnamed secretary from the Hetalia Blood Bath 2010.
 * Also from the Bloodbath, Mr. Assbitch, the random extra seen staring at naked Spain's ass.
 * The Japanese fandom, which has much stricter guidelines for the fans to follow than the English fandom, is really big on this, to the extent that the fan community on some websites (Nico Nico Douga and Pixiv come to mind) forbid the use of nation names. This is mainly so that non-fans who might find Hetalia offensive can't stumble on fanarts/fanvids/whathaveyou accidentally.
 * New examples from Hetaween 2011 include:
 * A new nickname for Himaruya is "Alpacaman", apparently because HST is due to him secretly being a superhero and having to frequently go out to save kittens/alpacas.
 * "Stop-Bitch" for the guard who stopped Poland from bringing a horse to the party, and "Thigh-Bitch" for the guy staring at Belarus's thighs.
 * Why Grandmano not here? This was the biggest highlight of the event! (Romano's costume consisted of a night-cap, glasses, a granny's dress, and a BFG)
 * "Chain-Gang/Slave-Harem" refers to Germany's habit of enslaving and picking a new slaves.
