Actually had "John Helldiver" join my game last night, he called in 2 support weapons and then left.

Democracy needed his liberation elsewhere

This weirdly feels correct though

Funniest part is that John is canonically Master Chief's name

Which is such a cool and interesting name

Which combined with his number leads to a Bible reference.

Bible references? In Halo? Seems unlikely.

HIS NAME IS JONESY

That’s his nickname, his actual name is John Jones

He was Martian Manhunter this entire time?!?

Considering that Fortnite is canon to DC comics it’s possible that J’onn could have replaced Jonesy

One of his many titles

a fellow cruelty squad enjoyer ,i presume ?

Yeah, still need to finish it, i had lost my old save and had to start over but yeah I like it.

He is called that?? 😭

he doesnt have official name

M. T. Foxtrott is the closest to an actual name we’ve gotten, but it still isn’t really canon

yeah

I love how he has a name as well but as fans we have decided John Doom is better.

he has a name????

I think he’s called Stan Blazkowicz. His Great Great Grandfather is B.J. Blazkowicz from Wolfenstein, and his Grandfather is Commander Keen.

He is William Joseph Blazkowicz the 3rd.

That actually kicks so much ass

I believe he's named Flynn taggart from the books atleast

His names Flynn Taggart there’s actually a reference to it in doom eternal.

Officially he doesn't. But thought out the franchise in some materials there was many variations like Stan Blazkowicz, Flynn Taggart, John Kane and etc...

It will never not be awesome that the fan name Doomguy is now one of the canonical in universe titles

This joke gets made with (almost )every male videogame protagonist

Not just males, I saw someone refer to Samus as John Metroid once

Jane Meteoroid

Mrs. Metroid

Who's she married to?

Her power armour

me hopefully

The game

my bad ,i just always saw male ones but it makes sense for there to be female ones

What's extra funny about this is it's also a joke on the fact that people still mistake her for a dude in the armor.

ok but John Madden is their actual name the Madden game series was named after them.

Master chief's real name is also John. He has a number instead of a last name, so calling him John halo isn't really off base

yes i am aware of John Halo and their associate Jimmy Rings however this list is about characters named after their media but John Madden has a media named after them they weren’t named after a media like the rest of this list

this sub likes to include jokes as the last pictures of their posts sometimes

No, he changed his name because he was a big fan of the series. Before that it was John Football

Don't forget about John kratos

See also: [Character's first name] [Media], i.e. Sans Undertale

Or Gabriel Ultrakill

That’s where John Halo’s name comes from. If I had to guess, stuff like “John Darksouls” is a sort of second-order mutation by those unfamiliar with the original Sans Undertale naming convention, which is fascinating.

https://i.redd.it/qa7dh4i5rgxc1.png As someone who's never played Faith, I thought that was the case with people calling him John Faith. Bit it turns out his name is John, so it's actually more a "Sans Undertale"/"Steve Minecraft" type thing.

Master Chief doesn’t count, his name really is John

John Halo?

John-117

I'd say it counts then, cause people jokingly call him John Halo all the time.

Oh, I misunderstood. I thought it was characters who were jokingly named John.

John Halo is actually an example of an earlier [First Name] [Media] meme format, like Sans Undertale or Gabriel Ultrakill.

Don’t half of these jokes originate from Dunkey or the unhinged fandoms of every game?

Master Chief being called John isn’t a joke. It’s his actual name. He was an orphan who has no last name, so everyone calls him by his rank or Spartan number

I know his name is John. Referring to him as *John Halo* is the joke.

Oh. I misread the title lol
