Line 71:
* [[No Name Given]]: Is Rosie's mother ever referred to as anything other than Rosie's mother or Mrs. Noah? (Her name is Eutheria Noah, but it's only mentioned once, and it states that no one ever used her name but her husband, and he's dead now.)
* [[Not-So-Harmless Villain]]: Graham Coats {{spoiler|killing Maeve Livingstone}}. He goes downhill from there.
* [[Nothing Is Scarier]]: [[Discussed]] in chapter 13:
* [[Only Known by Their Nickname]]: right up to the point when Fat Charlie {{spoiler|[[Took a Level in Badass|figures out his powers]]. From the next sentence, the narration and the other characters just call him 'Charlie'.}}▼
{{quote|"I," it said, "am frightened of nothing."
"Nothing?"
"Nothing," it said.
Charlie said, "Are you ''extremely'' frightened of nothing?"
"Absolutely terrified of it," admitted the Dragon.}}
▲* [[Only Known by Their Nickname]]:
* [[Performance Anxiety]]: Charles Nancy has it so bad, he passes out when he gets up on stage to perform earlier in the novel.
* [[Physical God]]: Mr. Nancy, Spider and the rest of the animal pantheon.
* [[Race Lift]]: Averted; executives wanted to recast the leads as white for the film, despite the fact that most are black, and African heritage is something of a plot point for the eponymous brothers. Gaiman shut 'em down.
* [[Rascally Rabbit]]: It is mentioned that some trickster rabbit stories were initially Anansi's.
