Jonah himself has a son named John Jameson by his first wife, Joan, he later married Marla Madison, his editor-in-chief is Joe "Robbie" Robertson (who has a son named Randy), and secretaries have included Betty Brant (whose brother was called Bennett) and Glory Grant. The Bugle staff absolutely adores alliteration. In fact, JJJ is actually J. Jonah Jameson, ''Junior''. We have also Curt Connors, the Lizard, and Cletus Kasady, a.k.a. ComicBook/{{Carnage}}. This reached the height of absurdity with a splash page showing the characters attending a Bugle funeral. Of the ten characters named, ''nine'' had alliterative names, with only Aunt May not fitting in.
** Based off this, there was a FunnyAnimal version, named [[ComicBook/SpiderHam Peter Porker, The Amazing Spider-Ham]], who worked for J. Jonah Jackal.
** The novelization of ''Film/SpiderMan1'' [[LampshadeHanging hung a lampshade]] on this, by having Jameson name the Green Goblin in a headline. This resulted in a brief discussion on alliteration between J. Jonah Jameson, Peter Parker, the Bugle's editor Robbie Robertson, and Jameson's secretary Betty Brant... none of whom seemed to notice they were examples. The same point is made in ''Spider-Man 3''.

The various principalities and powers, and the effects they conjure, tend to be alliterative as well (e.g. the Blinding Brazier of Balthakk, the Hoary Hosts of Hoggoth).

* ''ComicBook/AgeOfTheSentry'' showed the Sentry's Silver Age adventures in more detail, and revealed that like Superman he seemed to encounter a lot of people with the same initials, but in his case they were "EE". ComicBook/TheSentry's real name is Robert Reynolds, part of the subversion they were going for with the character when they said that he was actually invented by Stan Lee and then forgotten about among a stack of old story notes. He goes by Bob though.
* The original characters in the Marvel Universe co-created by Creator/StanLee were often given alliterate names as a mnemonic device.
** Peter Parker/''Franchise/SpiderMan''. Among others, he had to deal with J. Jonah Jameson and Otto "[[ComicBook/DoctorOctopus Dr. Octopus]]" Octavius. Jonah himself has a son named John Jameson by his first wife, Joan, he later married Marla Madison, his editor-in-chief is Joe "Robbie" Robertson (who has a son named Randy), and secretaries have included Betty Brant (whose brother was called Bennett) and Glory Grant. The Bugle staff absolutely adores alliteration. In fact, JJJ is actually J. Jonah Jameson, ''Junior''. We have also Curt Connors, the Lizard, and Cletus Kasady, a.k.a. ComicBook/{{Carnage}}. This reached the height of absurdity with a splash page showing the characters attending a Bugle funeral. Of the ten characters named, ''nine'' had alliterative names, with only Aunt May not fitting in.
** Based off this, there was a FunnyAnimal version, named [[ComicBook/SpiderHam Peter Porker, The Amazing Spider-Ham]], who worked for J. Jonah Jackal.
** The novelization of ''Film/SpiderMan1'' [[LampshadeHanging hung a lampshade]] on this, by having Jameson name the Green Goblin in a headline. This resulted in a brief discussion on alliteration between J. Jonah Jameson, Peter Parker, the Bugle's editor Robbie Robertson, and Jameson's secretary Betty Brant... none of whom seemed to notice they were examples. The same point is made in ''Spider-Man 3''.
** As if to make his Expy-ness of Spider-Man more obvious, Hazmat of the Imperfects has the alter ego of ''Keith Kilham''.
** Scott Summers/ComicBook/{{Cyclops}} and Warren Worthington III/Angel of the ''ComicBook/XMen''.
** ''ComicBook/FantasticFour'' members Susan Storm[=/=]ComicBook/InvisibleWoman (although she changed her name when she married) and Reed Richards[=/=]ComicBook/MisterFantastic
** Doctor Otto Octavius aka ComicBook/DoctorOctopus.
** Oliver Osnick/Steel Spider. Formerly known as Spider-Kid and Kid Ock.
** Griffin Gogol/Captain Ultra (Marvel might be running out of names).
** Matt Murdock/''ComicBook/{{Daredevil}}''. His mom is named Maggie Murdock.
** Stephen Strange/''ComicBook/DoctorStrange'', Master of the Mystic Arts (and sometime Sorcerer Supreme.) The various principalities and powers, and the effects they conjure, tend to be alliterative as well (e.g. the Blinding Brazier of Balthakk, the Hoary Hosts of Hoggoth). Justified, since magic involves chants and spoken spells, and alliteration is a memory aid.
** ComicBook/PepperPotts, Tony Stark's assistant and/or love interest from ''ComicBook/IronMan''. (Although her first name is actually Virginia, she is best known by her nickname.) Doubles as a PunnyName. She is the team coordinator for [[http://marvel.wikia.com/Order_(Initiative)_(Earth-616) The Order]], which had a distinct majority of this among its ranks. Henry Hellrung, Rebecca Ryan, Magdalena Marie (born Magdalena Marie ''Neuntauben'', though), Avery Allen, Pamela Pierce, and Carlos Carvaho were all members of the team at some point or another -- just under ''two thirds'' of its all-time roster.
** ''ComicBook/MillieTheModel'', as well as other "career girl" features that Creator/MarvelComics debuted around the same time: ''Nellie the Nurse'', ''Sherry the Showgirl'' and ''Tessie the Typist''.
** Bruce Banner/''ComicBook/IncredibleHulk''. (The alliteration didn't save Stan from calling him "Bob Banner" in an early story, thus enshrining in canon the full name of "Robert Bruce Banner".) [[labelnote:on TV]]In [[Series/TheIncredibleHulk1977 the TV series]], it was changed to David Banner (with Bruce still as his middle name) because of directorial distaste for this trope. At least that's what Kenneth Johnson (the producer and writer of the bulk of the series) says. Stan Lee says that [[ExecutiveMeddling the producers]] thought the name "Bruce" sounded gay. See, back in the funky '70s the name Bruce was thought of as a "gay" name the United States.[[/labelnote]]
** Greer Grant/Tigra
* In the popular Comicbook/UltimateMarvel line, [[ComicBook/UltimateSpiderman Peter Parker's]] successor as Spider-Man is tiny thirteen-year old ComicBook/MilesMorales.
* By [[Myth/NorseMythology sheer coincidence]], Loki Laufeyson.
* [[UnfortunateName Richard Rider]][=/=]''Comicbook/{{Nova}}''
* Brian Braddock[=/=]ComicBook/CaptainBritain and Betsy Braddock[=/=]Comicbook/{{Psylocke}}, siblings.
* [[ComicBook/XMen The Beast]] once dated a reporter named Trish Tilby.
* ComicBook/JessicaJones, {{retcon}}ned into the Silver Age by ''ComicBook/{{Alias}}'' ([[SimilarlyNamedWorks the comic, not the TV show]]), who also operated under the codename Jewel. Jessica Jones was originally Jessica Campbell, until [[spoiler: her family died in a car accident and she was adopted by the Joneses.]]
* [[Characters/XMenHellfireClub Shinobi Shaw]], son of the Hellfire Club's Black King Sebastian Shaw.
* Domenic Destine of ''Comicbook/ClanDestine''. Also his older sister Gracie Gamble, although that's just her current alias.
* Jessica Drew, the original ComicBook/SpiderWoman, has a phonetically alliterative name.
* In ''X-Men Noir'', Thomas Halloway learned lockpicking from a criminal by the name of Horrace Hobbs, the Harlem Houdini.
* [[ComicBook/{{Morbius}} Michael Morbius]], his temporary alias Morgan Michaels, as well as his father Makarioa Morbius.
* Wade Winston Wilson[=/=]''ComicBook/{{Deadpool}}'', with the last name copied from DC's Deathstroke, aka Slade Wilson. In films and in animation, he's played by and voiced by respectively [[Creator/RyanReynolds Ryan Rodney Reynolds]] and Creator/NolanNorth. Everyone's getting in on the alliteration.
* A few members of the ComicBook/HowlingCommandos, Robert "Rebel" Ralston, Percival "Percy" Pinkerton, and Jonathan "Junior" Juniper.
* Frederick Foswell
* Ralph Roberts/Cobalt Man
