* Trowa Barton from ''[[Gundam Wing]]'' was separated from his family as a baby and raised by a band of mercenaries, who never named him. He remains nameless his entire life until the eve of [[Colony Drop|Operation Meteor]], when he lifts the moniker of the man originally trained to pilot the Heavyarms Gundam. After [[The Movie|Endless Waltz]], he considers himself nameless once more, until [[Ho Yay|Quatre tells him that he likes the name Trowa]] and there's no reason he cannot keep it.

* Yuko Ichihara from ''[[xxxHolic]]'' never reveals her true name, as that would give others power over her and so only uses a pseudonym.

* In ''[[Gregory Horror Show]]'', we never find out what either of the guests' names are. ''Ever.'' Neither of them give it out, and the only other character who ''might'' know it (since they'd have to sign into the hotel anyway) only addresses them by a [[Terms of Endangerment|Term of Endangerment]]. All official material only refers to them as "Guest" and "Second Guest."

* Interestingly used in ''[[Samurai X]]: Trust and Betrayal'' where Kenshin explains to Tomoe that he doesn't hesitate to kill his enemies because he does not know them, and if he knew their names it would be harder for him to kill them, sometime later we see at least a pair of mooks yelling their names before confronting him, to which Kenshin answers "shut up and die anonymously"
