There is a major reoccurring theme that is highly prevalent throughout the entirety of the [[Little Tail Bronx]] series. Most characters that [[CyberConnect2]] creates are often named after some type of food. Most characters are often named after French cuisine due to the setting of the series ([[Shepherd Republic]]/Free Lands of Gasco) formerly being Old World France.
Many of the names in ''[[Little Tail Bronx]]'' are puns on various things, especially food. This article lists namesakes with explanations. Note that namesakes without citations are not confirmed and may be subject to review.
