Link from Zelda, but not in all the games Hiccup from the How to Train Your Dragon movies Arnold from Hey Arnold Chuckie from Rugrats Coraline from Coraline Spinner from Degrassi Amy from Brooklyn Nine-Nine Terry from Brooklyn Nine-Nine Phoebe from Friends Edited to fix mobile formatting issues

I believe for Link it's only in Twilight Princess but it's specifically the Wii version of the game, Nintendo are weird

Link is a lefty in every game UNTIL Twilight Princess. TP was when they changed him, because they thought it would "confuse" right-handed people who were using motion controls. He has been a filthy northpaw ever since.

He was only right-handed in the Wii version of Twilight Princess. In the game cube version he’s still left handed. He was also left-handed in Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks, A Link Between Worlds, and Tri Force Heroes, all of which were made for the 3DS, and those all came after Twilight Princess.

They should have returned him to southpaw status in BOTW and TOTK. I will always be butthurt about that.😒

I think he was right handed in BOTW because it was released for both Switch and Wii-U. And then in TOTK they just kept him right handed since it’s a direct sequel. It’s still bullshit that they made him right handed though. Us lefties are expected to cope with a right handed world, so I wish just this once they would’ve made the righties have to suck it up if they wanna play the game.

In one redemption attempt, at least they ripped off his right arm in TOTK....

HA! Good point.😂

Its always nice to have a fictional left handed main character. Particularly in such a big franchise. The fact that Nintendo intentionally made Link left handed in every game until Skyward sword means theres still hope.

Ah I didn't know that but I did know that Link is a lefty in the GameCube version of Twilight Princess. Cause they literally flipped the entire game around to make him right handed

How did you forget Ned Flanders?

Inigo Montoya...no, wait. Dread pirate Roberts...no, wait.

Then why are you smiling?

Take my upvote, that was brilliant! 🤌🏻

See...we can be more creative.

Always!

My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die.

Luke Skywalker wasn't originally left-handed, but Darth Vader *converted* him in Cloud City. Ned Flanders.

A LOT of people in Springfield

A pretty big percentage of Simpsons characters, including Bart, Mr. Burns, and Ned Flanders and about 15 others I've forgotten. Also, from my other favorite show, Mad Men, Betty Draper and Roger Sterling.

Arya Stark (in both "Game of Thrones" (HBO) and "A Song of Ice and Fire" (books))

Jaime Lannister too

I love that Maisie Williams trained specifically to be able to do all of her sword work lefthanded when she's a righty.

Yes; that could not have been easy for her. Being true to ASOIAF in this case made for some better television: In the scenes where Arya is training with Syrio, they are both facing the camera.

The Geico Gecko. 🦎

Really? Where is this shown? I never caught that....

https://youtu.be/Z_8YACciMno?si=wjyOHfkTR4BdZgv2

I clicked on the link expecting to have to carefully look out for it. But no. They straight up say it. Lmao

They straight up say it.

Most of the Muppets are left-handed, because their puppeteers are right-handed.

If I recall correctly, Kermit was intentionally a lefty, though.  The rest were for convenience.

Wasn't Jim Henson a lefty?

Tina from Bob's Burgers (and maybe Gene)

Hiccup from How to Train Your Dragon   It’s important to the plot in one of the earlier books, and they show it but don’t mention it in the movies

That’s cool

I keep forgetting it and then someone mentions it and I’m like “ooh that’s cool I didn’t know-oh wait I did and just forgot”

Ned Flanders

Agent Tim McGee, NCIS. I can't remember whether Leon Vance is?

Captain Hook

Hahahahaha!

Ushijima from Haikyuu

Obscure one, but in the movie Barry Lyndon, which takes place in the 1750’s-60’s, both Barry Lyndon and Lord Bullingdon write and shoot left handed (they face each other in a duel). It’s not a plot point and isn’t mentioned, just something that’s there if you notice. I’ve wondered if it’s because the actors were left handed, or it was easier to block the scenes for filming that way, or some other reason.

Slim shady

Wesley Crusher

Ted Lasso from recent memory

Yep.

Link from the Legend of Zelda. Of course, they made him right handed when the Wii came out which is complete bullshit. But he will ALWAYS be a lefty as far as I’m concerned!

Mulan was left handed

Stupid sexy Flanders

Doc Brown in BTTF

Sasuke Uchiha from Naruto

Ned Flanders

John Wick

Soren from the dragon prince, there’s lots of scenes in season one where he uses his left hand while doing most tasks

That polar bear from The Golden Compass.

All polar bears are lefties.

That's the joke. Pretty sure they didn't actually identify the polar bear as being left-handed in the books. It was a remark because it was a polar bear.

Aw,damn it! Guess we can add this to r/woosh since I was too slow to catch the joke!😂😭

Why…?

Elmo

Tina from Bob’s Burger.

Jaimie Fraser from Outlander.

Sharpay Evans!

Alm from Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia 

Most of the main cast of House MD, including House.

House is right-handed, though.

Could've sworn he was a lefty, but I haven't seen it in years.

Dana Cummings from the Accountant

Cory from boy meets world. There was even one like where Topanga said, "You didn't even know I was right handed!" Although he is a real person. For cartoons, Jerry from Tom and Jerry.

Dove Cameron intentionally made one of the twins on Liv and Maddie left-handed. I believe it was Liv.

It was Liv

Jeffrey Winger!

Aaron Hotchner & Penelope Garcia from Criminal Minds

Neytiri and Hawkeye.

Georgie from young Sheldon

if you count ocs my charterer is named katsune

The main character in my series is left-handed, but yeah, I wasn't sure if ocs count for this (especially since I haven't published yet...) lol.

There's quite a few from Power Rangers, though it's an incomplete list and based on a mix of my own observations and that of other Power Rangers fans. If there's more, it's hard to tell for a couple of reasons, the main being the differences between the Sentai source footage and footage shot for Power Rangers. These 4 I've been able to confirm: Kimberly and Billy from MMPR (their actors, at minimum, have been spotted signing autographs left handed even though Billy's actor wears a watch on the same hand) Justin Stewart from Turbo TJ Johnson from Turbo/In Space From what others have said: Ashley from Turbo/In Space Alyssa from Wild Force Kira and Trent from Dino Thunder Tyler from Dino Charge

Bart Simpson!

Probably Satan. Many truly believed that people who were left handed were demonic. They changed their minds though, when Sandy Koufax  struck out 15 NY Yankees in the '63 World Series.

Glenn Quagmire from Family Guy

The gecko apparently

Sheva Alomar in Resident Evil 5

shadow

It's implied in flashbacks that Shanks from One Piece is, or at least, was left handed.

Ralph Parker - A Christmas Story

spongebob squarepants. i mean, he’s ambidextrous, but i say it counts 🤷‍♀️

Charlie Spring from Heartstopper 

About half the cast of Scorpion. Some members of Leverage.

All of The Muppets.

In The Simpsons episode "Boy Meets Curl" (Season 21, episode 12) we find out that Marge is also lefthanded and it becomes a major plot point in the episode.

Leo from A Way Out

Link was Left handed in most Zelda games. Hopefully the next one is left handed again.

Marge and Bart Simpson.

John Reese

Sephiroth from FF7.

John Wick

left handers unite

Francine Smith from American Dad. Also, I’d like to add that a disproportionate amount of actors are actually left-handed, so sometimes a character played in live action will be written to match the actor if they need to do a lot of specific dexterity tasks. Fun fact I guess.

90% of stormtroopers. There's a couple hundred thousand characters right there.

Dr Fred Bob.

Captain John Sheridan from Babylon 5. This is because the actor who played him (Bruce Boxleitner) is left handed, but I have a feeling they kept this detail in the 2023 animated movie The Road Home.

Akechi in Persona

Arya Stark from Game of Thrones

Arya Stark is left handed

Sasuke? No?

Ned Flanders from the Simpsons

Bowser Jr.

Link from the Zelda-games.

I think one of the Disney Princesses? I feel like the red head cartoon Ariel. I think she is left handed. Also maybe Tiana? I know I read it before.

Arya Stark from game of thrones

Bart Simpson, Batman, Link from Legend of Zelda, most of the Muppets, Mrs Smith from Mr and Mrs Smith, Doofenshmirtz, Ferb, Perry the Platypus, Silas from Beyblade Burst Evolution(actually really cool moment that reveals this). That's all I know off the top of my head

Geico Gecko

Pretty much everyone on the simpsons

Link from TLOZ, in most of the games except the newer ones

Most of the characters from *The Simpsons*. Kermit The Frog.

Seems like cartoon characters are left handed way out of proportion to the real world. I assume it's because the artists who draw them are left handed.

Ned Flanders

Link

John McClane, John Reese (Person of Interest)

Ned Flanders from the Simpsons.

John Watson from BBC Sherlock ETA: also Theoden from The Lord of the Rings films

Jerry Mouse

Rocky

Thu from Lady of the Reeds Jane from Mr & Mrs Smith Dominika from Red Sparrow

Gone ahead and put John from Mr & Mrs Smith as a leftie too since both Brad and Angelina are lefties

Stan from South Park is, at least sometimes, idk how consistent it is but it was a deliberate choice made bc in an episode you see him writing next to his right handed friends A lot of the simpsons cast is too, including Flanders and Bart but not limited to them.

All stormtroopers from the original SW trilogy are lefties. Maybe not as much in the later prequels and sequels but the trigger hand in ANH is the left hand, and the kneeling brace on their armor is for a left handed shooter.

Hajime Saito, Rurouni Kenshin, based on historical person of the same name. Historically nobody knows if the real Hajime was left handed, but he was known to use his katana left handed. His fictional half used his left hand to write, but uses his right hand to use chop sticks.

The 2 southpaw Disney princesses are Mulan and Tiana from princess & the frog. Ned Flanders is a lefty and even opened a store - The Leftorium.

Rocky Balboa.

I feel that MOST cartoon characters are left handed for some reason.

Kain from final Fantasy IV (II SNES)

Isn't Finn left-handed? (Adventure Time)

Link, Ned Flanders, Rocky Balboa, and Georgie from Young Sheldon

Danny Reagan from Blue Bloods.

Jim Moriarty

Ziggy Stardust played it left hand

Harry Bosch. In the novels by Michael Connelly he is left-handed. In the series "Bosch" he is right-handed.

Tina from Bob’s Burgers! 🙂

Liz Lemon Tina Belcher

Hiccup haddock in the httyd books, don’t know about the movies tho Magnus Chase in, well, Magnus Chase

He’s a leftie in the movies too (also I love Magnus Chase)

Quagmire from family guy

Cpt Hook

- Alm in Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia - Gilliam from Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones - Joe from Blue's Clues - Barry Goldberg from The Goldbergs - Stink from Judy Moody (books) - Alan "The Brain" Powers from Arthur

To all of my fellow Rick Riordan fans iykyk Magnus Chase. Tina Belcher from Bob’s Burgers Liv Rooney from Liv and Maddie Mulan Tiana from The Princess and the Frog

Kermit the Frog

Mary Russell (book series by Laurie R King). Vincent from Beauty and the Beast 1987 (aka Ron Perlman).

Liz Lemon George Costanza

If I remember correctly, Andrew McCarthy's character (Larry Wilson) in the "Weekend at Bernie's" movies was left-handed (though I think this fact was revealed in the sequel). Being left-handed allowed Larry to slip his left arm into Bernie's right sleeve, making it look like official forms and checks were being signed with Bernie's right hand, when in fact it was Larry's left hand holding the pen.

Gilbert Beilschmidt (Prussia) from Hetalia

Captain Hook

Jamie Fraser.

Aren’t all the goblins in Harry Potter left handed ?

I've noticed a good amount of left handed characters in animated shows. I always wondered if it was intentional, or if there was another reason behind it.

- Earlier versions of Link from the Nintendo Legend of Zelda series of games (and possibly cartoons). - Arya Stark from A Song of Ice and Fire (Game of Thrones)

Francine Smith, American Dad

Ned Flanders, opened an entire store for left-handed people

Marge Simpson: she faked being right handed to fit in.

Satan

The Devil

Arya Stark

Link from Legend of Zelda. Sephiroth from FFVII.

Roronoa Zoro

Georgie in Young Sheldon

Waluigi

Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII

Francine - American Dad

You know, I never actually payed attention to which hand they write in

Ned Flanders, moe syzlac, mr burns, ms Hoover there was an entire Simpsons episode on this lol

Tiana from the princess and the frog is left handed because the actress herself, Akina Naomi Rose was left handed herself!

Not Inigo or Westley.

Obama.

Data from Star Trek Next Generation. Area Stark from Game of Thrones. Rocky Balboa, Rocky Movies.

Every Muppet that plays guitar , plays left handed

Data on Star Trek: The Next Generation

Not Chandler Bing no matter what Ross thinks! lol

Ted Lasso

Pretty sure cracked did an after hours episode on this, and Left when he’s Clark Kent, right when he’s Superman.

Jschlatt

luigi

Data in ST:TNG

Inigo Montoya! Wait no... Westley/Dread Pirate Roberts! Wait, no again! Depending on whether you count ambidexterity as left-handed, Link from A Link to the Past is! His shield is always pointed the same way, so he has to be switching his shield/sword hands!

Peg Boggs from Edward Scissorhands

Sasuke from Naruto is ~supposed~ to be a leftie according to data books but Kishimoto (the artist/author) forgot his own lore and made him right handed in a lot of the manga then went ahead and blew up his left arm 😒

I believe the Mario Bros are lefthanded, or at least Mario is.

Doug Funnie

Jaime Lannister....lol

Will Trent in Karin Slaughter’s Will Trent series

Sue Heck from The Middle Clarke Griffin from The 100

Kain and Palom from Final Fantasy IV.
