Odd Name Out: Difference between revisions

 

 

* The characters from the eponymous video game in ''[[Kid Radd]]'' are named after slightly mangled pieces of Eighties slang - Radd, Gnarl, and Bogey (from 'bogus', not the British for 'booger'). The only one who isn't is Radd's 'girlfriend', Sheena, who's not only invincible, but who ends up merging with a version of herself from the sequel to her game, and becoming the most versatile fighter in the comic.

* ''[[Homestuck]]'' has four kids, whose online handles can be shortened to TT (tentacleTherapist), TG (turntechGodhead), GG (gardenGnostic), and... EB (ectoBiologist), which belongs to [[Lovable Nerd|John]], our original protagonist. This discrepancy is actually a [[Chekhov's Gun]]; {{spoiler|a group of [[All Trolls Are Different|internet/real trolls]]}} had forced him to change his handle from ghostyTrickster.

* Not a name thing, exactly, but Lady Surka of ''[[Digger]]'', a professional bridge-troll, lists some of her past jobs as dishwasher, assassin, and pirate queen.

* [[Played With]] in ''[[No Rest for The Wicked (webcomic)|No Rest for The Wicked]]:'' November is the daughter of King January, and has older sisters named August and September. The queen is named Avril, which follows the [[Temporal Themed Naming]] in another language. (They're also missing an October, though [[Word of God]] says that's because there's a two-year difference between September and November's ages.)
