Can you guess them?

So, I saw a meme that I liked and decided to use it! Try guessing the favorite characters I've shown here! It shouldn't be too hard since a lot of these are pretty well known. xP

Also, here's a bonus challenge! If the character has a known nickname and/or last name, give me their full name! ;D

DO NOT TELL ME LUIGI'S LAST NAME IS MARIO. I don't believe this is true, as it has never been confirmed by Nintendo, so do not say this to me. I'm already annoyed that people keep pestering me about it as it is. I DO NOT BELIEVE IT, SO IT DOES NOT COUNT. Thank you.

Meme base: [link]

The answers have all been guessed correctly, so here we go!

First Row:

1. Ike (Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance/Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn) - Honestly, I love everything about Ike! His personality, his mad sword skills, his design, the weapons he gets to use, etc. He's also really hot. <3

Trivia: Ike's favorite foods are spicy steak and ribs! Though, technically, he loves food in general. XD

2. Luigi (Super Mario) - As with Ike, I love just about everything about Luigi. The one thing I don't like is the number of games he has or is even playable in. He needs more! Anyway, I also grew up with Luigi. He was the first video game character I ever got attached to and played as a lot. I liked him back in the day for his color scheme (green >>> red) and his awesome jumping ability. As he gained personality, I thought he was hilarious and smart, so I only liked him more! Also, he has more brains than Mario, as noted in the Mario Party 1 manual. So awesome. Lastly, that Super Jump in Super Paper Mario. Automatic win.

Trivia: Luigi's name came from the pizza place near Nintendo of America called Mario and Luigi's.

3. Scooby and Shaggy (Scooby Doo, Where Are You?) - I grew up with these characters just as much as I grew up with Luigi, except that Shaggy and Scooby are the first TV characters I grew to like, rather than video game. I can't choose who I like better: both are hilarious and lovable! Plus, both show that they're not actually as cowardly as they seem. Shaggy is clearly the more cowardly of the two, but even he has had his moments of bravery. This, I like a lot. Also, his catchphrase is win. "ZOINKS!"

Trivia: Shaggy is skinny because he's a vegetarian. Though, strangely enough, he's still shown eating meat on occasion (this isn't often, however).

Trivia 2: At least some of Scooby's different tv series are alternate realities/parallel dimensions. This is first proven by A Pup Named Scooby Doo and the movie Scooby Doo Goes Hollywood. The former shows that the gang has known Scooby since they were children, while the latter states that the gang bought Scooby as a pup in a pet store while teens.

4. Kieran (Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance/Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn) - This guy is plain lovable. Kieran is hilarious, attractive, and statistically win. He's the best knight in both games, imo, and kicks major ass. He's every bit as good as he claims to be. Also gotta love his rivalry with Oscar.

Trivia: Although Oscar is portrayed to be superior to Kieran, Kieran is actually the better unit statistically. In fact, he tends to surpass every knight in stats.

5. Ezlo (The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap) - Yet another character I find hilariously lovable. Ezlo was one thing that made me love TMC so much. He's the best partner to Link in the series, hands down. He also made me like the game's ending. I was sad to see him leave. D:

Trivia: Ezlo is the only partner of Link's that is featured in the title of the game AND in the game's logo. Ezlo is the Minish Cap itself and his silhouette appears in the title logo.

Second Row:

1. Vaati (The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap) - Three words. Best. Villain. Ever. Screw Ganondorf, Vaati is where it's at! He has three epic forms, badass magic attacks, and a badass design. I also love his laugh and his theme songs. Ghirahim isn't far behind though.

Trivia: Vaati is the only Zelda villain besides Ganondorf to appear in more than one game.

2. Mr. L (Super Paper Mario) - Yet another badass villain. I don't like him simply because he's really a brainwashed Luigi. Mr. L is just plain awesome. He's the only villain in SPM that I found challenging (so far. I never got to fight Count Bleck or Super Dimentio. Count Bleck's Castle is too frustrating), he freaking makes fun of Count Bleck's other minions and even Count Bleck himself, and the Brobot is so silly it's awesome. Also, that catchphrase. "HAVE AT YOU!"

Trivia: Mr. L is also known as the Green Thunder, which means he is possibly a reference to Luigi's thunderhand ability in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.

3. Joey (Yu-Gi-Oh) - This guy is possibly the most hilarious character I've ever seen. Joey makes me laugh like every episode! He also is probably the most well-developed character in the series. He starts out as a terrible wanna-be duelist and rather immature. But by the end, he's one of the best duelists in the world and has gained more maturity. Lastly, Joey holds my two favorite cards: Red Eyes Black Dragon and Flame Swordsman! (he made me like these guys, actually)

Trivia: Joey has appeared in more Yu-Gi-Oh series than any other character, even the main characters! First, he has his role in the first series. Then he appears in Pegasus's flashback in Yu-Gi-Oh GX. Lastly, Joey makes a cameo in Yu-G-Oh 5D's, where he just clobbered some random guy in a duel. There is some debate as to whether or not this is actually Joey, but I believe it's him. Looks a lot like him, talks a lot like him, and he's aged quite a bit.

4. Rainbow Dash (My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic) - Rainbow Dash is awesome! I love her attitude, her tomboyishness, and her awesome flying move, the Sonic Rainboom! Also, she's blue. <3

Trivia: Rainbow Dash is the only pony so far (I think), that has more than three colors in her mane and tail.

5. Cilan (Pokemon: Best Wishes/Pokemon: Rival Destinies) - Cilan is so lovable! I love his confidence, his intelligence, and his design too! I actually find him to be somewhat attractive. I also love his catchphrase! "It's ___ time!"

Trivia: Cilan and his brothers, Chili and Cress, use hand gestures like those in the game of Rock, Paper, Scissors when they battle. Cilan uses his whole hands (paper), Chili uses his fists (rock), and Cress uses his fingers (scissors).

People have yet to give me the correct full names of those characters who have known last names and nicknames, so I will not give those out yet. ;3
