Over used anime names ??

[Hype]

What character names seem to pop in in 90% of anime's these days

Its one that has me stumped but Sakura seems to come up a fair few times

Any to add I need to get my thinking hat on

[Dogma]

Shinji is pretty common name. And slight variations of it included as well.

Can't really think of one either.

[Sawako]

I agree with Sakura. I've seen that pop up a lot.

Otherwise I haven't really seen two people have the same name.

[Zaru]

Makoto .

[Gene]

Mai .

[chaosas]

Pai, I only saw it twice, but I hate it :)

[Dimezanime88]

Sora. Even though it stands for clouds, a lot of characters have that name.

[Dogma]

Kuwabara

A normal kind of name, for a normal kind of guy.

[RetroElectro]

Saw the title, and 'Sakura' just popped into my head.

ANIME CREATORS: WE ALL KNOW YOU'RE MOAR CREATIVE THEN THAT.

[Anemone]

Sakura, Daisuke, Megumi, Haruhi, Aya, Seishirou.

I've seen all those names in more then one anime. "Sakura" is the most over used name tho.

[Lemonade]

Kira. I've seen that name in quite a few.

[G@R-chan]

I think Keichi could be one of the most over used name for male characters.

[Cipher]

Ichirou, Yuki, Sakura, Aya, and Mai are all very common.

[Botzu]

kei is pretty common i can think of atleast 4-5 uses.

[spaZ]

Sora. Even though it stands for clouds, a lot of characters have that name.

It actually stands for sky

[Scum]

i think i've heard tanaka-san many times

[Byakuya]

Kai. ...............

[Xell]

Ichigo .

[Twirl]

Well the anime creators usually would go for common Japanese names so of corse you would see them again at some point…

[oka]

Kaoru.... unisex name

[Sena Kobayakawa]
