List of Hetalia: Axis Powers Fanterms

This is a list of common fan terms and names used in the Axis Powers Hetalia fandom.

Bad Friends Trio

A term used to describe the trio of France, Prussia, and Spain.

Fatty Russia

A term referring to art where Russia is portrayed as being somewhat overweight or more noticeably heavier and larger than the other characters. In canon, Russia himself claims to be just big-boned, even wearing a shirt that states such in a sketch by Himaruya.

Five Meters

An injoke started by a fan about Prussia, in a discussion about the average penis sizes of men in various countries. After stating that Prussia was "five meters long", the joke quickly caught on as a meme and fanworks with Prussia can often be seen referencing "FIVE METERS".

Germancest

A term used to describe the incestual fanon pairing of both Germany and Prussia, and the fanworks relating to it.

Gilbo

A fan nickname for Gilbert Beilschmidt (aka Prussia).

Iggy

A fan nickname for England, first coined in the Japanese fandom from the Japanese word for England, Igirisu.

Italycest

A term used to describe the incestual fanon pairing of both North and South Italy, and the fanworks relating to it.

Katyusha

A fanon name coined for Ukraine, from a name for rocket artillery and the derivative of a Russian girls' name, Yekaterina. Some fans refer to her by a full name, Yekaterina "Katyusha" Braginskaya, though as there is no canon name given to her by Himaruya or evidence of her having one, it is simply a fanon name.

Mathias Kohler

A fanon name for Denmark, which was mistaken by many to be an actual name given to him by Hidekaz Himaruya after someone had added it to the Hetalia TVTropes character page. It was later found to be false, as by the time Denmark was created, Himaruya had stopped giving the characters human names.

Roma

A fan nickname for Holy Roman Empire, taken from the Japanese rendering of his name, Shinsei Roma. It has also been used as a placeholder for his human name in fanworks.

On other occasions, Ancient Rome is referred to by this, the "Roma" coming from Roma Antiqua.

Wanwan

A name coined for the Taiwan character, by Taiwanese fans of the series.
