Overall
Alice
- Down the Rabbit Hole
- Hair of Gold: In most adaptations.
- Kid Hero
- Little Miss Snarker
- Memetic Outfit: Mostly thanks to Disney.
- Strange Girl: Alice spends a lot of time talking to herself in both books, including giving herself advice, has an extended monologue to a cat, pretends to be many people at once, and once 'frightened her nurse by saying 'Let's pretend you're a pork bone and I'm a hungry hyena!' She's probably considered a bit odd in the 'real world,' but once she gets to Wonderland she becomes the Only Sane Man.
- True-Blue Femininity: Her dress is almost always shown as blue (although it's brown in the abridged 1890 version .
- Xenafication: Is often subject to it.

- Cheshire Cat Grin: The Trope Namer
- Reality Warper
- Trickster Archetype: In the Disney film; and what is more, many other versions of this character follow it as well, having the cat get Alice in trouble, but never being truly mean-spirited, just mysterious.
The Hatter
- Expy: He and the Hare appear in Through The Looking Glass as the White King's messengers, Hatta and Haigha.
- The Mad Hatter: Trope Namer.
- Nice Hat: His iconic and impressive top hat. He's probably borrowing it from his inventory, as it has a price tag of "10/6", representing a price of ten shillings and sixpence. That's about $100 today when adjusted for inflation, so it likely is a pretty nice hat.
The March Hare
- Heterosexual Life Partners: With The Hatter.
The Dormouse
- Composite Character: With the Mouse in the two Disney films. Though the only trait from the Mouse he gets is his fear of cats.
- Sleepyhead
The Queen of Hearts
- Composite Character: With the Red Queen, notably in the Tim Burton film.
- God Save Us From the Queen: "Off with their heads!"
The King of Hearts
Gryphon
The Mock Turtle
- Heterosexual Life Partners: With the Gryphon, it seems. They went to school together and are still friends.
- Hurricane of Puns:He seems to like them.
