* ''[[Anansi Boys]]'' has this as a plot point. Despite having lost weight and his American accent, "Fat Charlie" is still known as the fat loser kid thanks to his father nicknaming him. His fiancee tolerates him, while her mother hates Charlie. Heck, his brother Spider steals his fiancee without any remorse. Much of the novel is about Charlie learning to reclaim his father's power after the latter dies.
* ''[[Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (novel)|Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire]]''
** Alastor Moody has a reputation for being extremely paranoid, owing to his career of hunting down Death Eaters and taking them in alive if he could. Professor Karkaroff, one of the former Death Eaters that he captured, references more than one incident where "Mad-Eye" Moody's paranoia backfired on him. {{spoiler|It also allows Barty Crouch Jr. to hide any OOC moments and hatred of the Death Eaters that escaped Azkaban while posing as Professor Moody.}}
