Johnny McCoolname: Difference between revisions

{{trope}}

 

Let's face it, as common as the name "John" and its derivatives may be in [[Real Life]], in works of fiction the particular derivative "Johnny" [[Rule of Cool|manages to sound quite cool and awesome in its own way]], no matter how many ways it's spelled. And especially more so if the name-bearer is a [[Badass]] in ''some'' capacity.

 

{{examples}}

== Comic Books ==

* In [[Marvel Comics]]:

** Johnny Double, deliberately anachronistic P.I. who peppers his speech with beatnik and hipster slang.

** Johnny Sorrow, a villain who acts as [[The Dragon]] to an [[Eldritch Abomination]] known as the King of Tears, and who himself can turn intangible and literally frighten people to death if he removes his mask (used to cover [[Nightmare Face|a hideously scarred face]]).

* [[Johnny the Homicidal Maniac]] is a case of [[Obviously Evil]] and [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]].

 

* John Laurinaitis, the Executive Vice President of Talent Relations of WWE and Interim General Manager of Monday Night Raw, formerly wrestled under the name "Johnny Ace".

 

 

== Toys ==

* [[Johnny Test]], who gets into all sorts of wild hijinks with his sisters' science inventions.

* ''[[Danny Phantom]]'' villain Johnny 13 has control of a [[Living Shadow]] which causes bad luck toward anything it passes through (as a nod to the superstition of the number 13 being unlucky). He's also a [[Badass Biker]] whose motorcycle [[Cool Bike|can race up walls and fly]].
