Line 454:
* [[Tex Murphy]], given his nickname as a kid due to the shape of a hole he left in the ceiling after being ejected off a malfunctioning hobby horse. We never do find out his real first name.
* In ''[[Dragon Age]]'', apparently neither Isabela nor Anders are known by their real name. [[Word of God]] states that Anders is apparently called that because he is [http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/304/index/6511895/3 from the Anderfels]{{Dead link}}, while Isabela's real name, and the reason she goes by "Isabela", is simply [http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/141/index/5118004%26lf%3D8/1#5120696 unknown]. Fenris from ''[[Dragon Age II]]'' is only known by a nickname for the bulk of the game; his real name ({{spoiler|Leto}}) is revealed in his personal quest in Act 3, and he subsequently orders everyone not to call him that, because "Fenris" is the only life he can remember.
* [[Barbarian Hero|The Iron Bull]] in ''[[Dragon Age: Inquisition]]''. Sometimes he is called "Hissrad" but that is, in fact, his title in his own language. His actual name is never spoken.
* [[Mass Effect 2]] has the head of Cerberus, an elusive and secretive figure only known as "The Illusive Man".
** The tie-in comic series ''Mass Effect: Evolution'' reveals that his name is {{spoiler|Jack Harper}}.
Line 459 ⟶ 460:
* [[Fallout: New Vegas]] has Rose of Sharon Cassidy, better known as Cass.
* In ''[[Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath]]'', the main character is only ever known as 'Stranger', with his real name never being revealed. This is probably intentional on Stranger's part as {{spoiler|he's a Steef (a centaur-like creature), and does everything he can to keep it a secret. This includes running around with two legs bound together, and being prepared to undergo (most-likely complicated and ''unanesthetized'') surgery.}}
