Sometimes, some moves and/or characters stick out more with the names the fans give them over the years.
----
* In order to differentiate Kyo from his clones, fans often refer to his NESTS depiction as "Shin Kyo" ([[MeaningfulName as in]] "True Kyo").
** In Japan, the clones Kyo-1 and Kyo-2 are known as Mero and Hoki after their respective favorite foods (two different kinds of fish), while Kusanagi is abbreviated to Nagi.
* [[HoYay Yaoiori]] for Iori, thanks to all of his FoeYay with Kyo. The infamous "Yagami is I'm-a-gay backwards" joke didn't help in this regard; his tendency of throwing out ambiguously gay lines in his special intros with Kyo probably helped even less. This is [[ShipTease teased]] to no end by various official/fan works.
* Fathena or Athiccna for Athena's appearance in ''XII'' and ''XIII'': {{Moe}}ness and chubby legs.
* Yuri's parody of the [[Franchise/StreetFighter Shun Goku Satsu]], the Yuri Chou Enbu, is sometimes called the Shin Yuri Satsu.
* Kim is sometimes nicknamed as The Beijing King, thanks to the WebVideo/MyWayEntertainment fan dub of one of the ''Fatal Fury'' [=OVAs=].
* [[ThoseTwoBadGuys Chang and Choi]] are sometimes referred to as "WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry".
* Ralf's Neo MAX from ''XIII'' has been christened as the [[RatedMForManly MAN]]retsuken (a play on Ryo's Zanretsuken), due to the [[AwesomenessIsVolatile overflowing abundance of GAR]].
* Robert's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1U_5rCax8Y Hien Shippu Ryuujin Kyaku Neo MAX]] is alternatively called ''[[VideoGame/TonyHawksProSkater Robert Garcia's Pro Skater XIII]]'' and [[Series/KamenRider Rider Kick]].
* Firstly, there's Rugal's "Rugalspin" (Dead End Screamer DM, 1998 only). This owes a lot from ''{{VideoGame/MUGEN}}''.
* Adelheid is mostly known in Spanish-speaking communities as Rugalito.
* [[SNKBoss Cheesenitz]] and Goenadz for the Goenitz himself, as well as the Goenitzpin, another [[MemeticMutation meme]] spawned in the wake of the Rugalspin thanks to his new HSDM/[=MAX2=] in ''2002: Unlimited Match''.
* Geese is usually called [[SNKBoss Geeser the Cheeser]] and [[JustForPun Geeseter Bunnie]]. As for his Raging Storm DM, there's the Pretzel due to the move's [[SomeDexterityRequired absurd input command]] that was made that convoluted ''just'' for the sake of nostalgia.
* Due to having the most tournament wins in ''KOF'' canon (as well as his tendency to be on the Hero team in every saga in some capacity[[note]] Fought alongside Kyo and Daimon for the Orochi saga, was in ''[='=]99's'' Hero Team alongside K', Maxima, and ''Shingo'' of all people, was a part of the Rival Team alongside Elisabeth and Duo Lon (the canon winners of the ''XI'' tournament), and is now joining Shun'ei and Meitenkun as part of ''XV's'' Hero Team. [[/note]]), Benimaru is sometimes jokingly called the UsefulNotes/LeBronJames of KOF.
* Krauserspin or Gigatech Cyclone for Krauser's Gigantic Cyclone SDM. Again, blame ''{{VideoGame/MUGEN}}''.
** Also there's Betty [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMMJkvY4OUc for an]] [[DummiedOut unused DM]] for Krauser in ''[='96=]''. Speaking of which, in addition to being an InUniverse nickname for her, the fanbase also calls Elisabeth Blanctorche by this name, too.
* K9999 is [[CaptainObvious obviously]] known as the "[[Manga/{{Akira}} Tetsuo]] of KOF" as well as [=Tetsuo9999=], being [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff very popular in South America]]. Even in ''{{VideoGame/MUGEN}}'' there's a version of him with dialogs directly ripped from the movie and new moves that resembled ''AKIRA'', called as "Another K9999."
** The same fans rejected Nameless as his replacement, calling him nicknames like KOF [[Manga/{{Naruto}} Sasuke Uchiha]] or NESTS EmoTeen as others.
* Shingo's notebook full of information on his techniques has been known as both the ''Manga/DeathNote'' and Website/GameFAQs thanks to his HSDM in ''2002: Unlimited Match''.
* Mongolia - Maxima, with one of his normal moves being a Mongolian Chop. It's from the Japanese ''{{VideoGame/MUGEN}}'' community where they call him such due to parody videos involving him doing that move a lot.
* Ass Crimson - Ash Crimson from ''2003'', who is so flamboyant that he might qualify as a GorgeousGeorge. He's also sometimes called Ass Crapson, Fish Crimson (stemming from an unfortunately squished uppercase "A" in one of the ''XI'' menus resembling the letter F) and Fist Crimson. [[ViewerGenderConfusion Ashley]] [[PrecisionFStrike Crishit]] and Ash [[PrecisionFStrike Shitson]] are less popular but still common variations of the above. You can tell that ''a lot'' of people hate [[ReplacementScrappy Ash]], but SNK ([[AmericansHateTingle and the Japanese]]) [[CreatorsPet just love him]]. Of course, all fan nicknames for Ash Crimson became discredited [[spoiler: [[WellIntentionedExtremist once his true motives were revealed]]]], and for his eventual return in ''XV''.
* Chuuni for Shun'ei in ''XIV'' due both to his design giving off vibes of the stereotypical {{chuunibyou}} teenager and the similarity of his name to the term.
* Some custom teams gain fan nicknames, too. From ''XIV'', we have [[HasTwoMommies "Team My Two Daddies"]], made up of Rock Howard, Terry Bogard and Geese Howard.
* In ''XV'', with Luong replacing Seth/Ramon as the third member of the Secret Agents team alongside Mary and Vanessa, a myriad of nicknames for this team have ranged from, "Team [[Film/CharliesAngels Heidern's Angels]]" to references to ''WesternAnimation/TotallySpies'', to "Team MILF", among others.
* With Athena, Mai and Yuri teaming together as the Super Heroine team in ''XV'', fans have given them the nicknames "Team Athena And Friends" and "Team Yuri And Friends", referencing Saigado's (in)famous doujinshi series.
* Due to an unfortunate case of PopCulturalOsmosis as the character hasn't been seen in a fighting game for ''25'' years, in ''XV'' Yashiro Nanakase has been given the nickname of "Dancing [[VideoGame/StreetFighterIII Urien]]" or "Dancing [[VideoGame/{{Tekken}} Bryan Fury]]". This is despite the fact that Yashiro predates Urien by at least a few months.[[note]] ''The King of Fighters [='=]97'' released to Japanese arcades on July 28th, 1997 while ''Street Fighter III: Second Impact'' released just two months later on September 30th. ''Tekken 3'' on the other hand was released on March 20th, with Bryan predating Yashiro by four months in this respect. [[/note]]
