Line 90:
* ''[[My Immortal]]'': The fan-novel follows the ever-dramatic life and times of [[Mary Sue|Ebony Darkness Dementia Raven Way]], alternatively spelled ''[[Rouge Angles of Satin|Enoby Draknsss Demanta Rave Wag]]'' and her boyfriends Draco and [[Meaningful Rename|Vampire]], the latter previously known as ''[[Harry Potter]]''. Common theory among fanfiction circles is that any fan fiction whose character names span five (as many as Ebony has) or more are probably ''[[My Immortal]]'' parodies [or at least are paying homage].
** Overly long names for [[Parody Sue]]s have been a mainstay in ''Potter'' fandom since at least ''[[Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (novel)|Order of the Phoenix]]''. It's only that ''[[My Immortal]]'' made the tradition known outside of the fandom.
* The ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' fanfiction ''[[Those Lacking Spines]]'' satirizes uses of this trope with examples like [[Parody Sue|Sakura Sunblossom Orange Juice Annie-Marie McFate]] and '''''x-x-''M'''''arley-'''''dono
* ''[[Arceus Archives|Rock Megaphone]]'' brings us Lightradiantperfectebonyclawsonicflightdementiaechoserenitytarachime the Chimecho, shorted conveniently to "Chimey". She actually doesn't care what part of her name you call her, as long as it isn't "Lrpecsfdestc". The Chimecho race uses a naming system similar to that of ''[[Warrior Cats]]'', and her parents just went a little... overboard.
** Due to the fact that she has "ebony", "dementia", and "tara" in her name, that probably makes it a [[Shout-Out]] to ''[[My Immortal]]''.
Line 476:
* Princess Kidagakash Nedakh from Disney's ''[[Atlantis: The Lost Empire|Atlantis the Lost Empire]]''.
* On ''[[The Life and Times of Juniper Lee]]'', Monroe's full name is Monroe Connery Boyd Carlyle McGregor Scott V. ("Quite a pedigree," says the dog show official.)
* [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eu1ciVFbecw This] ''[[Schoolhouse Rock]]'' short. The narrator - Mr. Andrew Andreas Armadillo - is glad to have pronouns when talking about himself and his friends Rufus Xavier Sasparilla and Rufus' sister Rafaella Gabriella Sasparilla - and their [[Cool Pet]]s, [[Overly Long Gag|"cause sayin' those nouns over and over and over again can really wear you down."]]

Line 549:
* The full name of Santa Anna, the Mexican general/president who was in power during the Texan revolution, had the full name "Antonio de Padua María Severino Lopéz de Santa Anna y Perez de Lébron".
* [http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/I_Am_The_Beast_etc._v._Michigan_State_Police I AM THE BEAST SIX SIX SIX OF THE LORD OF HOSTS IN EDMOND FRANK MACGILLIVRAY JR NOW.

* The Czech fringe political party ''[http://snipurl.com/wdodw Pravý Blok]''{{Dead link}}
** Which makes the German party ''Partei für Arbeit, Rechtsstaat, Tierschutz, Elitenförderung und basisdemokratische Initiative'' (''Party for employment, rule of law, animal protection, furtherance of the elites and grassroot democratic initiative'', mostly chosen for the acronym "Partei" - "party") look silly in comparison. Well, it is run by a (decidedly left wing) satire monthly.
* There's a small town in South Africa (about 20 km west of Pretoria) that's called "Tweebuffelsmeteenskootmorsdoodgeskietfontein" - which is Afrikaans for "[[Improbable Aiming Skills|The spring where two buffalo were shot dead with one bullet]]". It's since become a synonym in South Africa for an obscure rural small town.
