== Tabletop Games ==
* "Spike" is a nickname for the highly competitive demographic of players in ''[[Magic: theThe Gathering]]''.
 
== Video Games ==
* One of the partners you gain in ''[[Paper Mario (Video Gamefranchise)|Paper Mario]]'' is a Lakitu whose real name is Lakilester<ref>"Lackluster"</ref>, and apparently was trying out Michael, but by the time you meet him, he wants to be called "Spike", for image reasons. (Not that his girlfriend can ever remember that.) At the time, he was working for Bowser, and you do have to [[Defeat Means Friendship|beat him in a battle]], but once you get him on your crew, you have a valuable ally. (Don't expect "Spike" to show up in menus, though.)
* Spike, the rowdy main character of the first ''[[Ape Escape (Video Game)|Ape Escape]]'' game.
 
== Western Animation ==
* ''[[Rugrats]]'': Tommy Pickles's dog, Spike, who is Tommy's completely loyal companion.
* ''[[Land Before Time]]'': Spike the Stegosaurus. His name simply comes from the fact that the characters refer to Stegosaurus as "Spike Tail". He's the outsider of the group since he doesn't talk, so he basically functions as the [[Team Pet]].
* In the ''[[Tom and Jerry (Animation)|Tom and Jerry]] Kids Show'', Spike is the big and rowdy bulldog who acts as [[Papa Wolf]] to the cute little Tyke.
* Spike Witwicky from the [[Transformers Generation 1|first-gen]] ''[[Transformers]]''.
* [[Xtreme Kool Letterz|Spyke]] from ''[[X-Men: Evolution]]''.
* Pretty much every ''[[My Little Pony]]'' series (including ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'') will have a baby dragon named Spike. His personality depends on the series.
