Which films introduce their superheros traditional comic book name in the most natural, inventive and least cringey way. And which did it the worst.
Worst for me is definitely the end of Fant4stic 4 where they talk about a name for their group at the end and just before Reed can say Fantastic 4, the film cuts off. So cringey, terrible writing.
One of the best is Iron Man in IM1 where Pepper reads the newspaper and name drops IronMan but Tony very cooly passes it off and starts talking about how technically its a gold alloy and not strictly Iron. Very smooth and not cringey at all.

Justice League: Crisis on Two Eaths, one of the characters referred to Jimmy Olsen as ‘Superman’s pal’ which was the title of a long running comic ‘Superman’s Pal, Jimmy Olsen’.

I'd struggle to even remember most of them actually.
The only one that even comes to mind is Deadpool.....Captain Deadpool!
The Fantastic Four one was bad, they did something similar in Man of Steel just when Lois was about to Superman she got cut off.

But its pretty good when later in the movie the guy says we are calling him Superman. Less forced. |

Best: Batman (1989)
"Who are you?"
"I'm Batman."
That's as classic an intro as "Bond, James Bond".
Another good one is Spider-Man. Peter signs up to last 5 minutes in the ring with Randy "Macho Man" Savage. Bruce Campbell asks Peter what he calls himself. Peter says "The Human Spider". Bruce Campbell says that's lame and announces him as "the Amazing Spider-Man".
