No matter what range of emotion you're feeling towards another character, the best way to express it is to say their name—preferably in either a hoarse whisper or [[Chewing the Scenery|scenery-chomping]] cry. Even if no one's around to hear you, just ''thinking'' about that character is enough of a prompt. It's all but required if you're in the midst of rescuing your [[True Companions]]/[[Love Interest]] currently facing [[Damsel in Distress|imminent doom]], you're [[Meadow Run|running towards each other]] in romantic rapture, or when [[Arch Enemy|your mortal enemy]] has simply gone too far. Sometimes those last two [[Foe Yay|get confused]].
Line 17 ⟶ 18:
 
Contrast [[I Know Your True Name]] where speaking it has much more dangerous implications.
 
Not to be confused with the song of the same name by [[Destiny's Child]], or the ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (anime)|Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'' episode titled "なまえをよんで"..
 
Examples of this trope are often subjected to [[Memetic Mutation]].

* In ''[[Clannad (visual novel)|Clannad]]'', Nagisa's name gets shouted out that way several times throughout the series. The reasons for that are different every time. There are some other people too who get their name shouted out dramatically.

* ''[[AIR]]'': Haruko in [[Tear Jerker|episode 12]]: {{spoiler|MISUZUUUUUUUU!!!}}

Line 495 ⟶ 498:
** Hurley screams {{spoiler|"Jack!"}} in the series finale.
* ''[[Doctor Who]]'', new series: "Use my name!" "...Master." Repeated later: "Doctor." "Master." "I like it when you use my name."

** One interesting twist happened in "[[Doctor Who/Recap/S30/E01 Partners in Crime|Partners in Crime]]". Donna and the Doctor see each other for the first time through windows on opposite sides of a room that they are both spying on. Cue completely silently mimed shouts of "DONNA!" and "DOCTOR!"
* Parodied in ''[[The IT Crowd]]'': Douglas Reynholm bursts into his father's [[The Fun in Funeral|funeral]], takes off his sunglasses, gets his bearings, and [[Incoming Ham|when he's sure he's got everyone's attention]] lets out an anguished "FATHEEEERRRRRRRRRRR!"
