Additionally, if your show features [[Loads and Loads of Characters]] this also serves a narrative purpose: When they appear again after not being seen for three arcs, clearly stating their name once more helps the viewer identify and remember them.
▲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]].
▲Additionally, if your show features [[Loads and Loads of Characters]] this also serves a narrative purpose: When they appear again after not being seen for three arcs, clearly stating their name once more helps the viewer identify and remember them.
Of course there are times (especially in [[Anime]]) when [[No Indoor Voice|they overdo it]] (see [[Big Word Shout]])...
Line 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]].

Line 50 ⟶ 52:
** The trope in shojo is probably as old as shojo itself. The 1970s series ''[[Candy Candy]]'' delights us with a scene where Candy and her best friend Annie are reconciled. A few minutes of "Candyyyy!" "Anniiie, oh Annie!" "Candyyyy!" "Annie!" "Oh ''Candy''!" ping ponged with such strong feeling that (at least in the Finnish dub) you can [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|close your eyes and see something else than]] little girls running towards each other on a meadow of fragrant blossoms and sparkling dewdrops...
*** In case of the Finnish dub it doesn't really help that the voice actors are clearly adult, and very recognisable as two of the maybe five female voices TV dubbing had at its disposal at the time. It's rather jarring to get love scene vibes with little girls on the screen, voiced by any combination of the following: ''[[The Moomins]]'', ''[[The Smurfs]]'', ''[[Tao Tao]]'', ''[[Alfred J Kwak]]'', ''[[The Care Bears]]'', and ''[[Doctor Snuggles]]''.
* "DEEEEEDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Courtesy of Parn in the ''[[Record of Lodoss War]]'' OAV.
* Ginji from ''[[GetBackers]]'': "BAAAAN-CHAAAAN!!!" "KAZU-CHAAAAN!!!"
** In the manga, Ginji greets Shido and Makubex respectively after his first time seeing them in ages: "Shido! Shido! Shido!" "Makubex! Makubex! Makubex!"... ''both'' multiplied by a few more times.
** Ginji actually greets all of his friends (even [[Punch Clock Villain|Maguruma!]]) by going [[Super-Deformed]], calling their name and waving a fan with the kanji for "happiness" on it.
** Kazuki's "JUUUBEEEI!" in the first Infinity Fortress Arc when Juubei looks on the verge of death after his battle with Kazuki. The manga artist took the liberty of devoting almost a full-length page to the speech bubble.
** Emishi's "SHIDO-HAN!" speech bubble when it looks like Shido's been killed by Liu Mengyan's flunkies is almost that big.
* ''[[Hand Maid May]]'' lampshaded this, as the characters [[Show Within a Show|watch a cheesy soap opera]] whose cast communicates ''entirely'' this way to each other.
* ''[[Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch]]'': "Kaito!" "Lucia!"
Line 65 ⟶ 67:
* ''[[Gantz]]'': TAE-CHAAAAAAN!!! KEI-CHAAAAAAN!!!
* ''[[Cardcaptor Sakura]]'' anime, elevator scene with Syaoran and Sakura. Syaoran yells, "SAKURAAAAAAAAAA" as she plunges into the depths of wherever. As it is CLAMP, everything must be dramatic when Syaoran says Sakura's name for the very first time.
** Actually, that's [[Values Dissonance]]. In Japan, [[First-Name Basis|you rarely call people outside your own family by their first names]] unless you're '''very''' close to them, hence when Syaoran shifts from "[[Hey, You]]" (or "Kinomoto" in some dubs, to keep the meaning despite the language differences) to "Sakura", it's a BIG sign of both his crush on her and [[Character Development|how he considers her a close ally and friend instead of his rival]]. Therefore, when she uses The Float to save her own life and return to his side, she's ''beyond'' happy to hear him call her "Sakura".
* Nagi of ''[[Hayate the Combat Butler]]'' calls out Hayate's name whenever she's in trouble, as does Nishisawa once or twice. He will always appear immediately out of nowhere to save the day once so summoned; on at least one occasion he even apparently waited out of sight until Nagi called out his name before saving her from a rampaging robot.
** This happens excessively - if ANYONE calls out for help, especially if they use his name, he will show up to help them. To the point that it's a shocking surprise in the few cases when he DOESN'T show up.
Line 71 ⟶ 73:
** Which can be seen [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kecaTtDS2o here].
** In Kikyou's debut sequence, her name was six or seven of Inuyasha's lines in a row.
** To get specific, Inuyasha says Kagome's name 568 times in the whole series, while Kagome says Inyuasha's '''971'''
* "RANMA!!! AKANE!!!" moments are also very common in ''[[Ranma ½
** Played for laughs when the normally [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]] Ranma and Akane turn into [[Sickeningly Sweethearts]] because of [[Love Potion|love mushrooms]]. Instead of using their actual names, they call out to each other using terms of affection.
{{quote|'''Ranma:''' BABYYYYY!}}
** One of the series' [[Image Song]]s, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5Z5loxaxPQ "The Ballad of Ranma and Akane"], ends with them calling out for each other with increasing urgency (and volume).
* Taken to the extreme in the teaser trailer for the third ''[[Bleach]]'' movie revolving around the two, where the all Ichigo screams is RUKIA!!!!! In the most anguished and dramatic way possible. The movie is actually tagged as "Fade to Black; Call out Your Name".
** The fandom has taken notice of this, so much that it is jokingly called the [[Memetic Mutation|"Rukiagh" scream]]. [[Don't Explain the Joke|As in]]...'''''[[No Indoor Voice|RUUUUUKIIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGHH]]!!!'''''
Line 82 ⟶ 85:
*** And before that: AAAIIIIZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!
** "HINAMORI!" seemed to be Toushirou's catchphrase at a certain point in the manga.
** Orihime [[Memetic Mutation|notoriously]] repeats "Kurosaki-kun!" throughout the Hueco Mundo arc. Interestingly, during the end of the Lust mini-arc, the original version of the manga makes clear that it's a kind of [[Madness Mantra]], in a way that no other medium, not even the original version of the anime, could do. Normally, Ichigo's name is written in kanji, but when Orihime just starts chanting it, she does so in hiragana. As [http://bleachness.livejournal.com/319557.html this essayist] puts it: "It's not a name anymore. It is syllables coming out of her mouth that sound like 'Kurosaki-kun,' evidence of her loss of elocution and [[Break the Cutie|mental stability]]."
** Also the NII-SAMAs we're getting in the Zanpakutou filler. Damn it, Rukia!
** There's a good deal of "[[My Name Is Not Durwood|CHAD!]]" as well.
** Even Yamamoto gets in on the 'calling names out loudly' trend in a less dramatic manner when he sees Ukitake and Kyoraku fall after consecutive attacks by Wonderweiss and Starrk.
Line 92 ⟶ 95:
* There was a puzzle in the 2003 MIT Mystery Hunt ([http://web.mit.edu/puzzle/www/03/www.acme-corp.com/teamGuest/Training/tp-p.html Whoa - I know Kiaido!]) which consisted entirely of shots of characters doing this very thing.
* ''[[Fist of the North Star]]'': "YURIAAAAAAAAA!!! YURIAAAAAAGGGGHGHGHGHGHH!!!" "KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!!"
** Jagi is particularly fond of this trope. He also adds emphasis in the translated ''[[Dynasty Warriors|Hokuto Musou]]'': "
* The ''[[Gundam]]'' franchise ''loves this'' to death.
** ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam Wing]]'': "HEEEEROOOOO!" "Relena!" "TROWAAAAAAA!" "Quatre...!" "Zeeeeeechs!"
Line 101 ⟶ 104:
** ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack|Mobile Suit Gundam Chars Counterattack]]'': "CHAAAAAAAAR!"
** ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory|Mobile Suit Gundam 0083 Stardust Memory]]'': "GATOOOOOOOO!"

** ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny]]'': "STELLAAAAAAAAA!!!" "FREEEDOOOM!!!" "KIRAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
** ''[[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam]]'': KAAAAAAAMIIIIIIIYUUUUUUU!!: "FOOOOOOOOOUR!" "HAMAN KARNNN!"
** ''[[After War Gundam X]]'': "TIFAAA!" "GARRODOU!" "NEE-SAN!"
** ''[[Mobile Suit Victory Gundam]]'': "KATEJINA-SAN!" "USSO!"
* ''[[Chobits]]'': When Hideki is running to {{spoiler|save Chii from being violated}} he yells "CHIIIII!" very loudly.
* ''[[Macross Frontier]]'' "OZMA!" "RAN-KA!!" "SHERYL!" "ALTO!!!" {{spoiler|[[Killed Off for Real|"MICHEEELLLLLLL!!"]] }}
* ''[[Digimon Adventure]]'' has an episode where Taichi and Yamato manage to knock each other off a cliff. Taichi manages to grab on to the cliff with one hand while Yamato grabs onto him with one hand.
** ''[[Digimon Adventure]]'' does this kind of thing a lot, several of the first evolutions to Champion level (at least) were proceeded by a round (or two) of

Line 149 ⟶ 152:
* ''[[Magic Knight Rayearth]]'': "HIKARU! UMI! FUU!" It's almost as prevalent as the ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' example mentioned below.
* ''[[Naruto]]'': SASUKE! Gaara calls him "Uchiha Sasuke" so many times while the two of them are fighting (both whispered and shouted) that you could make a drinking game out of it, as [http://tv.ign.com/articles/765/765835p1.html at least one episode reviewer] observed.
** And from their fight after the Chunin exams: "NARUTOOOOOO!" "SASUKEEEEEE!"
** 'Sasuke-kun' was young Sakura's... catch-phrase? Half her dialogue? Anyway, she said it so constantly for so long that any of her voice actresses must have either been writhing or taking it as a personal challenge to find out how much variety they could get out of this one line over and over and ''over'' again.
** The Guardian Ninjas filler arc also has Asuma and {{spoiler|his enemy and former friend Kazuma}} yelling each other's names a lot, and Naruto often yells Sora's name. Later on, people yell {{spoiler|Asuma's}} name quite often around the time that {{spoiler|he dies}}.
Line 155 ⟶ 158:
** There's also Hinata's "Naruto-kun...", although it's rarely shouted.
*** [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] in an omake in Shippuden. Kakashi teases Hinata about her stammering "Naruto-kuns" in a recent episode being a big hit with the male viewers. That inspires Sakura to launch into a long litany of "Naruto-kuns" herself, as Kakashi and Hinata call out different moods for her to act out with each one.
** Naruto also likes to shout "SAKURA-CHAN!" quite a lot.
** "Gai-sensei!" "Lee!" "Gai-sensei!" "Lee!"
* ''[[Fate/stay night]]'': "SEIBAAA!" "SHIROU!"
Line 161 ⟶ 164:
* Yufa from ''Ragnarok the Animation'': "'''KEOUGH NII-SAN!!'''"
* Judai from ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX (anime)|Yu-Gi-Oh GX]]'' had always been incredibly fond of saying peoples' names, but when it came to Johan, he really pulled out all the stops. Poor Asuka's lines in all of seasons 3 and 4 were reduced to her just saying "Judai..." in moments when it looked like he was in a tough corner, and "Judai!" when it looked like he was in serious trouble.
* The regular [[Yu-Gi-Oh (anime)|Yu-Gi-Oh]] gets this a lot, too. As does the Other Yugi (or "Mou Hitori No Boku" - "other me".) And Jounouchi. And Anzu. And... well, a lot of people, really.
* ''[[Blood+|Blood Plus]]'': "SAAAAAAAAAAYYYAAAAAAAAA!" Then, when the person speaking ''is'' Saya, it will inevitably become "DIVA!"
** '''''[[Narm Charm|"PHANTOM!!"]]'''''
* ''[[Shakugan no Shana]]'': "SHANA!!!" "YUJI!!" <-- Actually of Plot importance, because Shana actually got her name from Yuji, and Yuji is usually not referred to by his name by the Flame Haze, because they consider him an object rather than a person.
** "He didn't even ask if I WANTED a name... Sha... na."
* Played with in ''[[Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex|Ghost in The Shell Stand Alone Complex]]'': {{spoiler|when Batou yells 'MOTOKOOOOOOOO!!!', only to later find out she's perfectly fine, and the other Section 9 members tease him about it.}}
** But used straight in [[The Movie]] during the climax when {{spoiler|the Puppet Master's body is blown to hell and Motoko appears to have died after merging with him. She gets better after finding a new body}}.
*** More about the immediate issue that {{spoiler|her head had been blown clean off by the snipers, as well. Thankfully Batou's and the Puppetmaster's interference resulted in the severed head itself staying intact, so the braincase could be put into a new body.}}
** Also used in the ''Stand Alone Complex'' [[PlayStation 2]] game, where the antagonist had a cybernetic body that had the exact same specs as the Major's own. Batou singled out the impostor by yelling "MOTOKOOOOOOOOOO!!!" and shooting the one that reacted.
{{quote|'''The Major''': "So, how did you know that that wasn't me?"
Line 178 ⟶ 181:
** More plot significantly, the scene where Daisuke {{spoiler|calls Riku by her name when he tells her he's in love with her, not her sister Risa. Up to that point he'd always called both of them "Harada-san", prompting her to angrily complain she can't tell which one of them he's referring to. Annoyingly subverted both in that he still uses "-san" to a girl he's going out with, and she still calls him "Niwa-kun".}}
* At the absolute end of ''[[Vandread]]'' where, for the first time in the series, {{spoiler|Hibiki calls to Dita by her name.}}
* ''[[Romeo X Juliet]]'': [[Japanese Ranguage|ROMIOOOOOOOOOO! JURIETTOOOOOOOOOOOOO]]!
* ''[[.hack]]'': "SHUUUGOO!" "REEENAAA!" Particularly when {{spoiler|Rena is kidnapped in-game}}.
* ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'': "ITALIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
Line 195 ⟶ 198:
* ''[[Trinity Blood]]'': "Kill me, Esther!" "Your lordship!" "Kill me, Esther!" "Your lordship!" "Look. Here's a sword, Esther. Seriously, kill me." "Your lordship!"
* In ''[[One Piece]]'', whenever a character gets injured in a battle that other crew members are watching or participating in, someone close to them typically yells their name. Examples include Sanji yelling his female crewmates' names, Nami yelling Robin's name and Robin yelling Chopper's name. Interestingly enough, {{spoiler|When Usopp}} is disguised as {{spoiler|Sogeking}}, in desperate situations, his crewmates yell out his real name, rather than his assumed one, even though they're playing along with his masquerade.
** During Enies Lobby, "ROOOOOOOBIIIIIIIIIN!!!" was Luffy's catchphrase.
** Nami is a bit infamous for this. Does no one remember "ARLONG! ARLONG! ARLONG!"?
*** The anime [[Ship Tease|does not help]] with the [[Power Perversion Potential|way her voice cries out for "LUFFY!"]] This has led to many a [[Running Gag]] amongst pervy fans.

* ''[[Mazinger Z]]'': "KOUJI-KUUUUUUN!" SAYAKA-SAAAAAAN!" Kouji and Sayaka often yelled each other's name [[Battle Couple|when one of them was in danger]]... or when they were pissed off at each other... [[Belligerent Sexual Tension|which happened often]] since they were the prototype of couple formed by an [[Idiot Hero]] and a [[Tsundere]].

Line 272 ⟶ 275:
* ''[[Lone Wolf and Cub]]'': Papa!
* While not extremely prominent in ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]'', the very last episode of the anime... "HARUHIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!" "SENPAI!!" Not surprising, Tamaki is much more dramatic about it than Haruhi.
** This trope is also parodied in episode 19 when the girls from Lobelia academy force Haruhi to be in their play, where she is cast as the helpless maiden opposite Benio as the male protagonist. Her only line is "Frederick-sama" which she says over and over in the same monotone voice.
* ''[[Uragiri wa Boku no Namae wo Shitteiru]]'': Hotsuma does this when Shuusei is discovered to be missing. Complete with some [[Gray Rain of Depression]].

* ''[[Fantastic Four (Comic Book)|Fantastic Four]]'': [[Doctor Doom|"RRRRIIIIICCCHHHHAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRDDDDDDSSSS!!!"]]
* ''[[X-Men (Comic Book)|X-Men]]'' are prone to this a lot, given the [[Loads and Loads of Characters]].
* ''[[Earth X]]'' has an unusual example: Uatu the Watcher has spent thirteen issues referring to [[Ridiculously-Human Robots|Machine Man]], aka Aaron Stack, by his model number, X-51, to emphasize that he is a robot and should have no loyalty to
* [[Superman]] shouting Mongul's name after freeing himself of the Black Mercy in "[[For the Man Who Has Everything]]." The force of the shout knocks Robin clean off his feet, and lets Mongul know he's only got a fraction of a second before Superman plows into him.

Line 338 ⟶ 341:
* Watch ''[[Titanic]]'' with a notepad and write down how many times the names "Jack" and "Rose" are called out between the two characters. Even if you don't make a [[Drinking Game]] out of it, your vision will ''still'' [[Incredibly Lame Pun|swim]] by the first hour of the movie.
