* ''[[Tales of Symphonia]]'' has a lot of mythological names for things, particularly places given names from Norse mythology, most of which have little or no connection to the things they're named for. There are a couple of exceptions, though.
** This is because ''[[Tales of Symphonia]]'' is a distant prequel to ''[[Tales of Phantasia]]'', which was far more directly inspired by Norse mythology.
** ''[[Tales of the Abyss]]'' carries it to a whole new extreme. Nearly all the towns' names, the "Qlipoth" underworld, and even the ''title''
* ''[[Cave Story]]'' has minor [[NPC
* A lot of the monsters in the [[Final Fantasy]] series are given names of creatures and heroes from various different myths, but many seem like an excuse to give mooks an awesome name.
* The [[Quirky Miniboss Squad|four enemy Mega Men]] in ''[[Mega Man ZX]] Advent''. They all have names taken from mythology; none of them are at all related to their elemental powers, and at least half of them are even the wrong gender. For example, the male Siarnaq is named after a Inuit goddess of ice. There is a bit more to the [[Theme Naming]], however, in that three out of four— along with another pair of characters, Prometheus and Pandora— share their names with moons orbiting Saturn (Aeolus is the only exception).
