Line 6:
Trope names based on a character (or other reference to a specific work) have fallen out of fashion, because [[Pop Cultural Osmosis Failure|not everyone watches the same shows]]. Some other common themes in renames are:
* Titles based on a character's name, but not making it clear [[One Mario Limit|which character with that name was meant]].
* [[Everything's Worse With Snowclones]], so they're used less and less nowadays. Notable example: the [[Everything's Better
* [[Trope Decay]], where an otherwise appropriate name was being used "wrong", constantly. Eventually it becomes clear that the real demand is for the "wrong" use. Notable example: [[Moment of Awesome]] used to be "''Crowning'' Moment of Awesome", but it wasn't being used for single superlative moments.
* Using "Trope" as a placeholder.
