Name sounds like the easiest category in Stop: everybody knows lots of people. Then the letter U comes up and you suddenly know nobody. I only know pandas, and most of them are called Panda.

Here is my cheat sheet of names that start with every letter, A to Z, with common boy and girl names. For the hard letters like U, Q, X and Y, I picked real names your group should accept.

How to use this list in Stop

Name is part of the Classic theme in Polar Games’ online Stop. You can also build your own category list.

Stop! only draws letters that have known answers in the round’s categories, and a letter never repeats in the same match. Tip: the name of a relative or a friend is rarely repeated by the group, and a unique answer scores more.

Does any name count? The classic scoring arguments

Do nicknames count?

It depends on your group. Nicknames that became real names usually pass. A nickname invented on the spot doesn’t.

Do character names count?

If it is also a real person’s name, yes. If it only belongs to a character, groups usually reject it.

Frequently asked questions

Uriah, Uma and Ulysses.
