15 Fan-Fave TV Characters With Totally Unknown "Real Names"
When I found out no one ever actuallyyy says Phoebe Waller-Bridge's character's name in Fleabag, I didn't believe it. There's no way a show could go two full seasons without someone saying her name… right? WRONG. Now I want to rewatch it just to catch all the sneaky ways people address her — because there's no way it's just 'Oi! Over here!' every time. There are plenty of TV characters whose 'real names' are as mysterious as a dating-app catfish who's 'travelling to luxury resorts and can't meet for a month.' So without further ado, here are some fan-favourite characters who are, in a way, totally nameless… "Ugly Naked Guy" from Friends Although the man in the apartment complex visible from Monica's window in Friends is always referred to as "Ugly Naked Guy," he's never given a name beyond that nickname. "The Soup Nazi" from Seinfeld Although the deli soup chef in Seinfeld (played by Larry Thomas) is called "The Soup Nazi" by Jerry, George, and Elaine, his real name is never revealed. "Fleabag" from Fleabag Although the show is named after her, the main character in Fleabag (played by Phoebe Waller-Bridge) is never actually addressed by name throughout the entire series. "Mr. Big" from Sex and the City Although Carrie's on-and-off love interest (played by Chris Noth) is technically named John James Preston — revealed in the final episode of Sex and the City — he's almost exclusively referred to as "Mr. Big" throughout the series. "The Janitor" from Scrubs Although Neil Flynn's character is named in the Scrubs series finale — Glenn Matthews — he's only referred to as "The Janitor" throughout the show. "The Doctor" from Doctor Who Although he is called "The Doctor" or "Doctor Who" throughout the series, Doctor Who, he is never given a name beyond his title. "Fez" from That '70s Show Although the exchange student (played by Wilmer Valderrama) in That '70s Show is known as "Fez" (a nickname derived from the acronym 'foreign exchange student'), his real name is never revealed. "The Captain" from How I Met Your Mother Although Zoey Pierson's ex-husband (played by Kyle MacLachlan) is technically named George Van Smoot, he's almost exclusively referred to as "The Captain" throughout the entire storyline with Zoey. "The Cookie Monster" from Sesame Street Although the cookie-loving, blue Muppet is always called "The Cookie Monster," it was announced in 2017 that his true first name is Sid. "Waitress" from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Although the unrequited love of Charlie Day (played by Mary Elizabeth Ellis) in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is known purely as "Waitress," her real name is never revealed. "Coach" from New Girl Although the on-and-off again roommate (played by Damon Wayans Jr.) in New Girl is known as "Coach," his real name is Ernie Tagliaboo. "Bones" from Bones Although the forensic anthropologist (played by Emily Deschanel) in Bones is known as "Bones," her character's name is actually Dr. Temperance Brennan. "The Skipper" from Gilligan's Island Although "The Skipper" (played by Alan Hale Jr.) in Gilligan's Island is known by only his title, his real name is Jonas Grumby. "The Child" from The Mandalorian Although most people refer to this character from The Mandalorian as "Baby Yoda," he is referred to as "The Child," but not given a name beyond that. Last but not least: "Cigarette Smoking Man" from The X-Files Although it's speculated that the character played by William B. Davis in The X-Files is named C.G.B. Spender, Dana Scully believed it was just an alias. He's primarily known as 'Cigarette Smoking Man,' though some claim his real name is Carl Gerhard Busch. Did we miss any? Drop in the comments any more "nameless" characters that come to your mind. It doesn't need to be limited to television. Tell us about a (quite literally) Man With No Name.

Mariah Carey's 5-Word Response About Going to Space Goes Viral
Mariah Carey's 5-Word Response About Going to Space Goes Viral originally appeared on Parade. Mariah Carey had a hilarious 5-word response when asked if she would consider going to space like rival pop star Katy Perry. During an appearance on BBC Radio on Thursday, August 7, the singer was asked, "Would you fancy going to space? You know, like Katy Perry did?" Carey was unaware of Perry's Blue Origin space mission, which she completed alongside Gayle King and Lauren Sanchez, and responded, "Did she go to space?" The host informed her that Perry did indeed go to space, but "not for long" and that she "went into orbit and back." Though the "We Belong Together" singer was doubtful at first, the host reassured her that he wasn't making the story up. Carey called the feat "amazing." But what's going viral is Carey's on-brand reply to the host asking, "Would you do it?" "I think I've done enough." Carey quipped back. RELATED: Shortly after the clip started making rounds on social media, fans took to X to share their reactions to Carey's hilarious response. "best response to this question possible" wrote one fan. "Mimi has no business in space. Let's keep her safe and sound on Earth. We can hear her vocals just fine in here!" said another. "LOL. Well played, Mariah, well played." added a third. Many pointed out that Carey was smart to shut down the space question, as Perry's space flight was heavily criticized and mocked by social media users. Others joked she would make the trip around Christmastime, a nod to her smash hit "All I Want For Christmas is You." 🎬SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox🎬 Mariah Carey's 5-Word Response About Going to Space Goes Viral first appeared on Parade on Aug 7, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Aug 7, 2025, where it first appeared.

Mariah Carey's very belated response to Katy Perry's space flight is calm, collected and oh so Mariah
It would seem Mariah Carey is just a bit spacey, since the diva extraordinaire missed some pretty big news recently in the worlds of both pop culture and science. During a new interview for BBC Radio's 'Scott Mills Breakfast Show,' Carey was asked if she would 'fancy' going into space like fellow music superstar Katy Perry. 'Did she go to space?' Carey asked. 'Where'd she go?' Upon learning that the 'Fireworks' singer had gone into orbit briefly, Carey had more questions. 'She's like, floating?' Carey asked, before needing to reconfirm with another question: 'And this is true?' It is indeed true, since Perry was part of a well-documented, all-female crew who traveled aboard Blue Origin's suborbital space tourism mission in April. The other women included Lauren Sánchez, Gayle King, bioastronautics research scientist Amanda Nguyen, former NASA rocket scientist and CEO of STEMBoard Aisha Bowe and Kerianne Flynn, a film producer. Carey seemed impressed by Perry's achievement. 'Wow. Alright Katy,' Carey said. 'I'm not mad at her. That's pretty amazing.' When finally brought back around to the question of whether she would want to be the next pop star to go to space, Carey had a classic and unbothered response that only she could muster: 'I think I've done enough.' Well said, diva.
