Line 50:
* Mack from ''[[Cars]]'' is a rare non-animal example. As with Doc Hudson, whose real name is actually Hudson Hornet, which means that "Hudson" is actually his first name and not his last name.
* ''[[An American Tail]]: Fievel Goes West'' has Cat R. Waul and Miss Kitty, whose species should be obvious.
* The characters in the ''[[Toy Story (franchise)|Toy Story]]'' movies are an interesting variation. Rather than being named for their species or occupation, most of them are named after the kind of toy they are. Thus, Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head are a Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head, Barbie and Ken are a Barbie and Ken, etc. Also applies to characters not based on real toys: Woody is a Woody doll and Buzz is a Buzz Lightyear action figure (one of hundreds, as we're shown). The straightest example of this trope would be Dolly the doll from ''[[Toy Story (franchise)||Toy Story 3]]''.
* The Furious Five in ''[[Kung Fu Panda]]'': Mantis, Tigress, Viper, Monkey and Crane.
* The main villain of ''[[Flushed Away]]'' is a toad named Toad.
