Adjective Noun Fred

A particular title structure like "Witch Hunter Robin", where the title takes the form of "Adjective Noun Propername", or a slight variation of that basic form. Often (but not always) the noun/adjective phrase describes what kind of thing the proper name belongs to.

This can overlap with Role Called; however, unlike Role Called, this kind of title doesn't necessarily refer to the main character. Compare Character Name and the Noun Phrase. For someone whose actual name is Adjectivenoun, see Luke Nounverber. If the title is just The Adjective Propername (more likely in Silver Age comics than anime), that's The Adjectival Superhero. See Mad Lib Anime Title for other common patterns in anime titles.

 * Nurse Angel Ririka SOS
 * Shōjo Kakumei Utena (Revolutionary Girl Utena)

 * An unusual example: 吸血姫 美夕 (Kyūketsuki Miyu) is pronounced the same as 吸血鬼 美夕, which would mean "Vampire Miyu", but it has the kanji 姫 (meaning "princess") substituted for 鬼 (meaning "oni"), so in English it is called Vampire Princess Miyu.
