* King's Body Check (f+1+4) is known as "Justice Nipples" because it involves King shoving his bare nipples to push the enemy backwards. While it has low damage, it has high priority and is often vital for King's mixup games. The 'justice' part comes from how King has always been a heroic character throughout the series.

* Heihachi apparently has a lot of these:
** Mystic [[RatedMForManly Manly]] Heihachi [[PrecisionFStrike Muthafuckin']] Mishima Bentley, Jr., which is usually abbreviated as Mystic Man Bentley or MMB.
** Polish players reffer him as Heniek/Henio, which is a diminutive form of Henry.
** [[UsefulNotes/PuertoRico Puerto Ricans]], who have a ''very'' healthy and active ''Tekken''-playing community, call him "El Viejo Cabrón", which roughly translates to "The Fucking Old Guy." The word ''cabrón'' in Puertorican Spanish can refer to both someone who's completely awesome and someone who's a complete dick... both apt descriptions for Heihachi.
* Due to Hwoarang's name being hard to spell by Western players, he got nicknamed Bob. But now that there's an actual Bob on the roster... Fans now spell Bob (the nickname, [[FunWithAcronyms which stands for]] '''B'''oy '''O'''n '''B'''ike) as BOB to differentiate it from the actual character.
* Julia is sometimes called "[[Franchise/TouhouProject Sumireko]]", as people have pointed out that she looks strikingly similar to her.
* When Jaycee was first revealed in the initial trailers for ''[=TTT2=]'', she was given the nickname "Queen" in deference to the existing male luchador King.
* Fans were quick to dub Yoshimitsu's new look in ''Tekken 7'' as "Hentaimitsu", due to him having several octopus tentacles adorning his armor.
* In Japan, Claudio is referred to as "Osse", which is his line of dialogue where his hand becomes engulfed in blue energy. His odd spin kick is also called "Genocide Cutter", based on Rugal's move in The King of Fighters (KOF). (The actual name on his movelist is "Sky Slash Nova," for those who are curious.) His running punch is also referred to as "Superman Punch" or "Burn Knuckle", the latter an attack of Terry Bogard, also from KOF. And then Geese Howard, a villain from the KOF universe, made his Tekken debut. How "predictabo."
* Dragunov is often affectionately called "Sir Gay", an intentional LyricSwap of his first name (Sergei). Asuka is also referred to as "Oscar" while Bryan is referred to as "Byron" for the same reason.
* Kazumi is occasionally called Tiger Mama due to effctively being the Mishima Family Matriarch (being Kazuya's mother, Lee's adoptive mother, and Jin's grandmother) as well as being able to summon her pet tiger during a fight at any given time.
* Paul's Phoenix Smasher (qcf+2), and other moves similar to it, are called "Deathfists" by the playerbase, as the move tends to do absurdly high damage, especially if it ends up being a counter hit.
* The Mishima Spinning Demon (f,N,d,df+4) and any similar unseeable high damage knockdown sweep are called Hellsweeps. Considering the description, it shouldn't come as a surprise that these are hell to block... but in turn they're also ''[[DeathOrGloryAttack hell for the user themselves]]'' if blocked, as they are usually launch punishable.
** Similarly, any relatively slow but often high-damaging evasive low sweeps that give a full (usually high damage) combo on hit and are homing are often called Snake Edges after Bryan's move of the same name (df+3).
* Kazumi's Tiger Wind Uppercut (df+2) is, for all intents and purposes, a ''literal [[ShoutOut Tiger]] [[VideoGame/StreetFighter Uppercut]]''... as in, she uses an ''actual tiger'' to launch the opponent skywards.
* A glitch for Lei Wulong involving canceling his back-turn stance for an alternative means of backdashing became known as the "Ha Ha Step", since every time it was performed Lei would constantly make battle grunts that sounded like he was laughing when strung together. It has since become an AscendedGlitch.
* Leroy has earned the nickname "Old [[WebVideo/TwoBestFriendsPlay Woolie]]", owing to his dreadlocks.
* The newest character, Fahkumram, has been instantly christened "[[YourMom Fuck Ur Mom]]" by the fans due to being unable to properly pronounce his name and his intimidating appearance. He is alternatively known as "Fuck You Man".
* "[[TheCutie Cutiemitsu]]" for Kunimitsu II, due to fans finding [[Creator/SaoriHayami her voice]], appearance, and more open personality compared to her mother cute.
** Some fans have also noted that Kunimitsu II bears a striking resemblance to [[Webcomic/OnePunchMan Speed-o-Sound Sonic]] (and to a lesser extent, [[VideoGame/ApexLegends Wraith]]). Funnily enough, Kunimitsu also shares a voice actress with ''[[Creator/SaoriHayami Fubuki]]'', of all people!
* [[VideoGame/TheWitcher3 Ciri]] for Lidia. Amusingly enough, there's even a [[https://www.deviantart.com/monkeygigabuster/art/Tekken-7-mod-The-Witcher-3-Ciri-outfit-for-Lidia-874313703 mod]] that has Lidia cosplaying as Ciri herself! Some also consider her to be Paul's DistaffCounterpart due to her hard-hitting fighting style, similar appearance, and the same {{Kiai}} - OSU!

* Heihachi apparently has a lot of these:
** Mystic [[RatedMForManly Manly]] Heihachi [[PrecisionFStrike Muthafuckin']] Mishima Bentley, Jr., which is usually abbreviated as Mystic Man Bentley or MMB.
** Polish players reffer him as Heniek/Henio, which is a diminutive form of Henry.
** [[UsefulNotes/PuertoRico Puerto Ricans]], who have a ''very'' healthy and active ''Tekken''-playing community, call him "El Viejo Cabrón", which roughly translates to "The Fucking Old Guy." The word ''cabrón'' in Puertorican Spanish can refer to both someone who's completely awesome and someone who's a complete dick... both apt descriptions for Heihachi.
* Due to Hwoarang's name being hard to spell by Western players, he got nicknamed Bob. But now that there's an actual Bob on the roster... Fans now spell Bob (the nickname, [[FunWithAcronyms which stands for]] '''B'''oy '''O'''n '''B'''ike) as BOB to differentiate it from the actual character.
* Julia is sometimes called "[[Franchise/TouhouProject Sumireko]]", as people have pointed out that she looks strikingly similar to her.
* When Jaycee was first revealed in the initial trailers for ''[=TTT2=]'', she was given the nickname "Queen" in deference to the existing male luchador King.
* Fans were quick to dub Yoshimitsu's new look in ''Tekken 7'' as "Hentaimitsu", due to him having several octopus tentacles adorning his armor.
* In Japan, Claudio is referred to as "Osse", which is his line of dialogue where his hand becomes engulfed in blue energy. His odd spin kick is also called "Genocide Cutter", based on Rugal's move in The King of Fighters (KOF). (The actual name on his movelist is "Sky Slash Nova," for those who are curious.) His running punch is also referred to as "Superman Punch" or "Burn Knuckle", the latter an attack of Terry Bogard, also from KOF. And then Geese Howard, a villain from the KOF universe, made his Tekken debut. How "predictabo."
* Dragunov is often affectionately called "Sir Gay", an intentional LyricSwap of his first name (Sergei). Asuka is also referred to as "Oscar" while Bryan is referred to as "Byron" for the same reason.
* Kazumi is occasionally called Tiger Mama due to effctively being the Mishima Family Matriarch (being Kazuya's mother, Lee's adoptive mother, and Jin's grandmother) as well as being able to summon her pet tiger during a fight at any given time.
* Paul's Phoenix Smasher (qcf+2), and other moves similar to it, are called "Deathfists" by the playerbase, as the move tends to do absurdly high damage, especially if it ends up being a counter hit.
* The Mishima Spinning Demon (f,N,d,df+4) and any similar unseeable high damage knockdown sweep are called Hellsweeps. Considering the description, it shouldn't come as a surprise that these are hell to block... but in turn they're also ''[[DeathOrGloryAttack hell for the user themselves]]'' if blocked, as they are usually launch punishable.
** Similarly, any relatively slow but often high-damaging evasive low sweeps that give a full (usually high damage) combo on hit and are homing are often called Snake Edges after Bryan's move of the same name (df+3).
* Kazumi's Tiger Wind Uppercut (df+2) is, for all intents and purposes, a ''literal [[ShoutOut Tiger]] [[VideoGame/StreetFighter Uppercut]]''... as in, she uses an ''actual tiger'' to launch the opponent skywards.
* A glitch for Lei Wulong involving canceling his back-turn stance for an alternative means of backdashing became known as the "Ha Ha Step", since every time it was performed Lei would constantly make battle grunts that sounded like he was laughing when strung together. It has since become an AscendedGlitch.
