Line 33:
* Odd variation/subversion: in ''[[Here Is Greenwood]]'', a few of the main characters are wandering around town when a young woman, clearly on the run from someone, knocks into them. When she's asked her name, she notices the giant poster behind them advertising the album of a singer named Mieko Nitta, so she naturally gives the name "Mieko." The guys help her escape the various people chasing her while trying to guess what her story is, only to finally discover the unlikely truth: {{spoiler|she ''is'' Mieko Nitta. She ran away from her manager and handlers to try and have a day to herself for once.}}
* Non-comedic variation in ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]''. The [[Mad Scientist]] [[Artificial Human|that made]] {{spoiler|Fate Testarossa}} gave her the name of the very Project she used to create her. She did this because she [[What Measure Is a Non-Human?|didn't see her as human enough to deserve a proper name]].
** The four Numbers Cyborgs who {{spoiler|joined the Nakajima family}} named [[Sibling Team|their unit]] "
* In ''[[Letter Bee]]'', Lag gives Niche her name because he found her in an alcove of a train station.
* It's eventually revealed that the titular character of ''[[Naruto]]'' does in fact have a name someone made up while eating a bowl of ramen (a naruto is the circular fishcake with a red spiral in it you put in it). {{spoiler|Jiraiya did it when trying to think up the name for the hero of his (non-pornographic) novel, and Naruto's parents named him after the character}}.
Line 40:
* In ''[[Dragon Crisis]]'', Rose's name is chosen by Ryuuji by him thinking the pattern on her hand looks like a rose.
* Suitengu of ''[[Speed Grapher]]'' picked his current name after reading it off a sword.
