==Gender-Swapped Names==
+
'''Nyotalia''' is a term used on Pixiv for the reverse gender counterparts of Hetalia characters. It comes from the words ''nyotaika'' (referring to male-to-female genderbends, from the word ''nyotai'' which means "girls' body") and ''Italia''. Though the original Nyotalia characters were not meant to actually be genderbends, they are treated as such by some fans.

* '''Bad Touch Trio''' (France, Prussia, and Spain): A popular term derived from their appearance in the ''War of Austrian Succession'' as allies. They have also alternatively been referred to as the '''Bad Friends Trio''', '''Best Friends Trio,''' '''Bad Business Trio''', '''Badass Trio''', '''Bad Company Trio '''or the '''FAG Trio '''(because of their human names: '''F'''rancis, '''A'''ntonio, '''G'''ilbert). Although unfortunately, many people in the fandom like to call them "The Rapist (France), the Pervert (Prussia) and the Pedophile (Spain)" , the "Bad Friends Trio" or "Bad Touch Trio" (BFT or BTT) are not a bunch of criminals. '''Contrary to the popular belief, it must be noted France has never raped anybody. Prussia is shown to be quite awkward when it comes to sexual things (recall the episode where he nursed an injured and buxom Hungary), and he is not a pervert. As for Spain, it was merely indicated that he has a love for children, but this does not mean he wants to have sex with them'''.
