== Light ==
=== Anime and Manga ===
* ''[[Death Note]]'''s Light Yagami. Although [[Light Is Not Good]] applies in a almost literal sense, this is ambiguous. His personal name is Light (written with the character for 'moon'), but Yagami means 'God of Night'. Certainly a [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|name to run away from]].
** It's also a possible allusion to Christian belief of the angel Lucifer (whose name means "bearer of light") and whose pride made him try and take the place of God. Describes Light rather well, if you ask me. It also doesn't help that his given name is written with [[Four Is Death|four strokes]].
=== Comic Books ===
* [[Subverted]] in ''[[Young Justice (comics)|Young Justice]]'' by "[[Light Is Not Good|The Light]]."▼
=== Literature ===
* The main character's daughter Glory Goldie Sunnycastle in ''[[The Emperor
* ''[[Thud!]]'': The coming leader of the trolls, "Mr. Shine, him diamond!"▼
=== Video Games ===
* Averted in ''[[Saints Row]] 2'', where the badass Voodoo Priest Lieutenant of the Sons of Samedi is "Mr. Sunshine".
** Arguably a fringe case between this and [[Fluffy the Terrible]], but regardless, being a scary, murderous lunatic [[The Stoic|with an inhumanly high pain tolerance]] isn't very conducive to being an effective drug-dealer, given Mr. Sunshine's [[Cutscene Incompetence|never shown doing regular business,]] [[Complete Monster|and almost always shown scaring/murdering someone.]] Admittedly, [[Villain Protagonist|so's the Boss...]]
▲* The main character's daughter Glory Goldie Sunnycastle in ''[[The Emperor Of Portugallia]]''. First played straight as the young Glory Goldie is a [[Friend to All Living Things]], then subverted as she leaves for the city and becomes a prostitute.
* Dr. Thomas Light from the ''[[Mega Man (video game)|Mega Man]]''. Of course, [[Dub Name Change|this is only in the North American versions]]. In the original Japanese games, his name is Dr. Right...which is still a much nicer name than, say, "Dr. Wrong". Of course, the [[Japanese Ranguage|L/R thing]] makes it hard to know what they truly mean his name to be. Either way, he's a nice guy.
* Hikari Yagami of ''[[Digimon Adventure]]''. [[The Messiah|''Oh'' so]] [[Light Is Good|very much]] a [[Meaningful Name]], almost to ridiculous extremes. Even her dub name counts.
▲* ''[[Thud!]]'': The coming leader of the trolls, "Mr. Shine, him diamond!"
▲* [[Subverted]] in ''[[Young Justice (comics)|Young Justice]]'' by "[[Light Is Not Good|The Light]]."
