Lincoln Loud (seasons 1-3, 6-present)

"Lincoln Albert Loud" is an 11 (later 12 year old boy as of "Present Danger") year old 5th grade elementary student at Royal Woods Elementary School (later 6th grade at Royal Woods Middle School), and the main protagonist of the Nickelodeon show The Loud House, its movies, and its live-action recreation, and a supporting character in the 2019 spin-off, mh:besttvshows:The Casagrandes. He is a happy-go-lucky and accident-prone boy who lives in a house with his ten sisters and two parents. With the help of his friends, he finds new ways to survive in such a large family every day.

Why He Shows His Love

 * 1) Unlike the other Nicktoons characters, he likes to break the fourth wall to talk to the viewers, in a non-annoying way unlike one of those weird kids' shows Lola watches.
 * 2) He comes up with the most creative plans and operations, after all, he calls himself the Man with the Plan. Although, he should probably come up with shorter names for them.
 * 3) Most of the time he's very caring towards his sisters, and he wouldn't trade them for the world.
 * 4) Despite has various relationship with his sisters, he has true preference with Lori, and his favorite older sisters Leni and Luna.
 * 5) Him and Clyde have a great friendship together, and their friendship name is Clincoln McCloud. Yeah, but not every times.
 * 6) Him and Ronnie Anne's friendship in later episodes of the show & The Casagrandes is really fun to watch.
 * 7) Hey, he may be a comic book/video game nerd, but he likes cute stuff too, you know.
 * 8) He was developed into a character with 10 sisters, which is a creative idea for kids, teens and adults alike.
 * 9) He is nicely voice acted, except his real life counterpart which was the worst.
 * 10) In every times, he's the best kid of Royal Woods ever, but just for his sisters.
 * 11) As of Season 5, he now attends Royal Woods Middle School with his older sibling Lynn.
 * 12) He has a lot of funny moments in the series.
 * 13) Despite having some issues, he fully returned to his original personality in season 6, and also redeemed himself in the live-action show.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) He has received notable and very bad flanderization in Seasons 4 and 5, becoming a bigger jerk and/or more of a punching bag, however, he is a little more likable in Season 5, and depending on your view, has fully returned back to his original personality in Season 6.
 * 2) *He has received notable and frequently clumsy, accident-prone, and zany like SpongeBob SquarePants.
 * 3) Even before and (depending on your view) after his flanderization, he can be jerkish at times, and also be treated like a punching bag sometimes in those seasons.
 * 4) His "comics in his undies" scenes are cringeworthy. However, he thankfully stopped doing that in recent times.
 * 5) Despite his intelligence, he can be very gullible and quick to jump to conclusions (which is foreshadowing).
 * 6) Wolfgang Schaeffer was terrible at portraying him in mh:awfulmovies:A Loud House Christmas. The same thing goes for majority of the cast who all sounded nothing like the original cast. What's even somewhat worse, he is reprising his role in the live-action series, and should have been replaced with a better actor. However he improved himself in The Really Loud House.
 * 7) While he redeemed himself in season 6, he still did some mistakes.
 * 8) Perhaps the most infamous case is in the infamous The Taunting Hour, where he teaches to ignore criticism, which is a horrible moral.
 * 9) He can occasionally retain his idiotic personality, such as in the episodes Time Trap. and All The Rage.
 * 10) Speaking of All The Rage, he along with his friends, took advantage of Clyde's anger issues by figuring out what ticks him off to win dodgeball from the 8th grade bullies at the middle school, which is incredibly selfish for them to do so.
 * 11) In the episode The Loud Cloud, after his family started to use the cloud, he infamously said "Technology makes our lives better!", which is false.

Trivia

 * Although it is unexplained why his hair is white instead of red, or blonde/yellow, or black, or blue, or even brown (light or dark), he is apparently born with poliosis, which means absence of color on one's hair.
 * He has seven voice actors in the series and both films, the first one being Sean Ryan Fox (in the pilot), Grant Palmer (in season 1's episodes "Left in the Dark - "A Fair to Remember"), Collin "The CD" Dean (in season 1's "One of the Boys" - "Homespun" and season 2 - onwards), Tex Hammond (Listen Out Loud Podcast Episode #7: Lincoln Loud and Clyde), Asher Bishop, Wolfgang Schaeffer in real life appearances, and Bentley Griffin.
 * He is Tex Hammond's very first character he has voiced, in fact, The Loud House is the first cartoon is where he plays a character in the series.
 * In "Not a Loud", his birth story was me being born in the limousine belonging to the President of the United States of America.
 * This may be the reason why his name is Lincoln, as it was the name of a former U.S.A. president. Wait...we're not supposed to be sharing this with you! Just...forget we said that. Heh heh.
 * He's the only character to appear and have dialogue in every single episode of the first two seasons, due to him being the protagonist and all.
 * His first cameo appearance was in "Roadie to Nowhere", while the first time he did not appear was in "Net Gains".
 * Unlike his sisters, Lincoln has more than four letters in his name.
 * He is loosely based on Ferris Bueller as both characters usually speak to the viewer, have a best friend who's name starts with C with a interesting dynamic with Fathers, (Clyde and Cameron respectively), have a love interest who's name ends with N and E Ronnie Anne and Sloane respectively), have a teenaged strict, bossy but kind hearted sister (Lori and Jeanie Respectively) and are both owned by Paramount Global.
 * As mentioned in WHR#17, he now attends Royal Woods Middle School as of season 5 (as of Schooled!) with his older sibling Lynn. In addition, he is no longer the only sibling to sleep alone in the house and is no longer the only Loud sibling to have no roommate, since Lori left for college and Leni is no longer roommates with Lori. He is also the fifth sibling to live in the house now. He would eventually turn 12 as of the season 6 premiere "Present Danger".
 * In that same episode, according to Gus, he shares his same birthday as the Fox Quintupplets.
 * Some people have believed that Lincoln is unlucky, although he is not unlucky because he's just a butt-monkey and an accident-prone which the writers made a copy from SpongeBob SquarePants and some other characters (namely Gumball Watterson and Coconut Fred). They were all clumsy and accident-prone characters. It has been mistaken for an unlucky character because of the episode “No Such Luck” which he is not bad luck in the series.
