* ''VideoGame/MidnightSuns'': The individual characters (those that are from the comics, at least) all have their usual names and codenames, but the eponymous team has had its name slightly changed -- in the comics, it was the Midnight S''o''ns (the name-change likely has something to do with the game's team having considerably more gender parity, especially amongst the Midnight Suns proper).



* Ultimate ComicBook/SpiderWoman is called "Spider-Girl" in ''[[VideoGame/LegoAdaptationGame Lego Marvel's Avengers]]'', even though she never used that name in the comics.
* In ''VideoGame/ThePunisherTHQ'', Jigsaw's real name is John Saint rather than Billy Russo.

* ''WesternAnimation/SpideyAndHisAmazingFriends'': Miles Morales' superhero name is once again changed to avoid confusion about having two characters called Spider-Man: This time, his code name is changed to "Spin".

* ''{{Series/Legion|2017}}'':
** Gabrielle's maiden name is never mentioned onscreen, but it's unlikely to be Haller because she's Romani in the show instead of Jewish like in the comics, and David's surname Haller has been changed to be from his adoptive family. After Gabrielle marries Charles Xavier, her name becomes Gabrielle Xavier (and Switch addresses her as such in the series finale).
** Because Charles and Gabrielle are married (which didn't happen in the source material), their son was born as David Xavier, although he's adopted by the Haller family when he's still a baby, so he's known as David Haller throughout the series. However, after the AlternateTimeline takes hold in the series finale, the infant that's shown in the last scene will be known as David Xavier permanently because his parents won't give him up this time.
