Names in the style of The Amazing World of Gumball: a block of canon cast names such as Gumball Watterson and Tina Rex, then new Elmore citizens with what they are in brackets, like Gordon Zola (a blue cheese), Terry Dactyl (a pterodactyl) and Polly Geist (a poltergeist).

About Amazing World of Gumball names

In Elmore anyone can be anything, and the show names its cast with a straight face. A banana is Banana Joe, a T. rex is Tina Rex, a ghost is Carrie Krueger, a peanut is Penny Fitzgerald and a cloud is Masami Yoshida. The pattern is an everyday first name with a surname that quietly hints at the species, or the thing itself used as a name, as with Idaho the potato and Clayton the ball of clay.

The first 72 entries are canon: the Wattersons, pupils and staff of Elmore Junior High, townsfolk and a few places. It is a selection, not a full cast list. Every entry after that is a new name in the same spirit, with what the character is in brackets so the joke lands: Gordon Zola (a blue cheese), Chester Drawers (a dresser), Terry Dactyl (a pterodactyl), Polly Geist (a poltergeist), Megan Byte (a megabyte). Teachers and shop staff are named by role, such as Mrs. Dewey (librarian, a hardback book), and Elmore shops and streets such as Soap Opera Laundromat and Plot Hole Road are mixed in.

How to choose Amazing World of Gumball names

  • Start with what your character is, then find the plain name inside the word: artichoke gives Artie Choke and megabyte gives Megan Byte. If you have to explain the pun, try another one.
  • Keep first names ordinary. The show's humor comes from a cloud called Masami or a T. rex called Tina, so Gordon, Paige and Wanda work better than anything fantastical.
  • Mix art styles the way Elmore does. A paper cutout, an 8-bit sprite and a puppet can share one classroom, so try Dolly Cutout, Bitsy Sprite or Marion Ette next to your food and animal characters.
  • Name background characters by job, the way the show does with Principal Brown and Coach Russo. Coach Whistler, Nurse Mercury and Baker Knead are quick to read in a script.
  • Use the canon names for fan fiction set in Elmore and the new ones for characters of your own, so readers can tell your cast from the show's.

Frequently asked questions

What are the main Gumball characters' names?

The Watterson family is Gumball, Darwin, Anais, Nicole and Richard Watterson. Classmates include Penny Fitzgerald, Tobias Wilson, Banana Joe, Tina Rex, Carrie Krueger, Masami Yoshida, Alan Keane and Bobert. Staff at Elmore Junior High include Principal Brown, Miss Simian and Mr. Small.

Are all 500 names from the show?

No. The first 72 entries are canon names and the rest are new ones written in the show's style. The canon block is a selection, not a complete cast list, so use a fan wiki as the reference for spellings and episode details.

How do Gumball character names work?

Some pair an everyday first name with a surname that hints at what the character is, like Tina Rex the dinosaur or Carrie Krueger the ghost. Many simply give an ordinary name to an unlikely creature, like Masami Yoshida the cloud, and others use the thing itself as a name, like Banana Joe. The new names here follow both routes, from Brock Lee (a head of broccoli) to Cliff Hanger (a coat hanger).

Can I use these names for my own Gumball OC?

Yes, that is what the new names are for. Each one states what the character is in brackets, so you can keep the name and change the species, or keep the species and adjust the name. This page is a fan resource and is not affiliated with Cartoon Network.
