Line 9:
* During ''[[Ranma ½]]'s'' [[Martial Arts and Crafts|Martial Arts Rhythmic Gymnastics]] competition, female Ranma freely gives her full name, confident that nobody in attendance (which includes classmates from Furinkan High) will make the connection with her male side. She's right, and everyone blows it off as a bizarre coincidence. (Although [[Those Two Guys|Hiroshi and Daisuke]] would constantly pester Ranma about introducing them to "his sister" afterwards.)
* Similarly, ''[[Kämpfer]]'s'' Natsuru Senou enters the girls' half of his gender-segregated school under the name Natsuru Senou. Cue the characters getting confused between the male Natsuru or the female Natsuru, when they're actually the same person.
* In ''[[Death Note]]'', Light Yagami expends a lot of effort trying to learn the real name of "L", the [[Great Detective]] who opposes him. {{spoiler|It's eventually revealed (although [[All There in the Manual|not in the manga or anime]]) that L is his ''real'' first name, which raises some [[Fridge Logic]] issues...
** Of course, Light never hears his last name, so he would have had to spend that effort anyway if he wanted to use the Death Note.

* In [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]], Shawn Michaels' mid-2009 absence was explained by him taking the job of a <s>[[The European Carry All|cook]]</s> chef at an office complex under the last name of Hickenbottom - that being Michaels' real-life last name.
