List of characters in Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends

This is a list of main characters seen in the American animated television series Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends.

Humans

• Mac — A bright boy who lives with his mother and older brother Terrence. Mac almost always seems to know what to do when there is a problem. . Even though Mac created Bloo, he is completely different to Bloo in almost all ways. For example, Bloo only cares for himself. However, in some episodes he shows affection for Mac and other friends, but this is short-lived. Mac cares for the other friends and tries to make them happy before his own happiness. It is shown in some episodes that he cares for Frankie in more than one way (he has a crush on Frankie). He is voiced by Sean Marquette.
• Francis "Frankie" Foster — Madame Foster's 22-year-old granddaughter. Frankie does almost every chore around the house and helps keep everything in order and, although Mr. Herriman's fixation with rules and cleanliness causes her tremendous stress, she is usually very friendly and easy-going. She is voiced by Grey DeLisle.
• Madame Foster — The founder of the Foster home, Madame Foster may be elderly, but she has a lot of spunk and loves to play tricks on others. Her imaginary friend is Mr. Herriman, whom she imagined when she was a child and never gave up. She is very strong for an old lady and is very adventurous. She is voiced by Candi Milo.
• Goo Goo GaGa — Goo is a friend of Mac who named herself Goo Goo Ga Ga when she was a baby because that was all she knew how to say. Her nickname (just to make things simpler) is "Goo." Goo has an overeactive imagination and has imagined over 750 friends. She is extremely hyperactive and talks very fast. In the episode that she was first introduced, the friends in the house thought that she and Mac were in love. She is voiced by Grey DeLisle.
• Terrence (voiced by Tara Strong) is the thirteen-year-old brother of Mac. He enjoys constantly annoying Mac, and coming up with various schemes to make things hard for Mac and Bloo.

Imaginary friends

• Blooregard "Bloo" Q. Kazoo — Mac's original imaginary best friend and rival, Bloo is a narcissistic maniac Mac created when he was three. In "Frankie My Dear" it's revealed that he is five years old. He is voiced by Keith Ferguson.
• Mr. Herriman — Mr. Herriman is a giant rabbit created by Madame Foster herself. He is often seen wearing a tuxedo coat and a stovepipe hat, as well as a monocle over his left eye (though it periodically changes eyes, depending on which way he faces). He serves as the president of the home and appears to suffer from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, given that he likes everything to be in perfect order. He is voiced by Tom Kane.
• Wilt — Wilt is a tall, red imaginary friend with a stubby left arm and a crooked left eyestalk. However, in "Good Wilt Hunting" it is discovered that he was not always this way. His defining aspect is his sense of fair play and good sportsmanship, which he applies to every part of life he can. Wilt also is extremely courteous, to a fault (he's often willing to perform anything asked of him, even if he has to go entirely out of his way to do so) and apologizes almost constantly. His name is an homage to NBA star Wilt Chamberlain. Wilt was shown to be created by Jordan Michaels, a basketball star, an homage to Michael Jordan. He is voiced by Phil LaMarr.
• Eduardo — Eduardo is an imaginary protector friend who occasionally uses Spanish words with awkward pronunciation. He has huge horns, purple hair, long fangs, skull buckle, grey pants and weighs more than 500 pounds. His creator, Nina Valerosa, is now a police officer on unpaid leave. Eduardo loves potatoes. Despite his large size and menancing look, Eduardo is quite docile and scared of most things. He is voiced by Tom Kenny.
• Coco — Coco was created on a deserted island. She is a bird-palm tree friend who can only speak or write the word "coco" at various speeds and with different emphases. One way to understand her is to break down each "coco" into syllables and then apply them to the situation. She has the ability to swallow a vast majority of things(ranging from gold bars and money to animals such as puppies) whole, then lay plastic eggs that can contain the items. She is voiced by Candi Milo.
• Cheese — A lactose intolerant pale-yellow friend who debuted in "Mac Daddy." Cheese was thought to be an imaginary friend created by Mac, but was actually created be his neighbor Louise, and gets out sometimes. Cheese appears to be somewhat madcap and dim-witted, often saying incoherent or non-sequitur phrases and breaking into sudden bouts of screaming, but he's really young and he has Louise's mind. Cheese likes chocolate milk and cereal, and enjoys getting into fights about cereal and potatoes with Eduardo. He is voiced by Candi Milo.
• Duchess — (voiced by Grey DeLisle), is a two-dimensional, "high-maintenance" friend, not wanting to do anything for herself, and is so lazy that she wants somebody to open her eyelids when she wakes up. After conspiring to get rid of Bloo, she was not kicked out of the house, but was forced to stay as punishment when she aches to leave.
• Creaky Pete is one of the oldest friends who lives at the house. He has a body that is almost completely made from hair, has no legs, and sits in a rocking chair that creaks. He is voiced by Tom Kenny.
• Jackie Khones is a small, green, one-eyed stick with a deep voice, provided by Phil LaMarr. He appears in various episodes usually to make quick humorous comments on current events in the episode or as a cameo in others.
• Yogi Boo Boo is a swami type of friend, who is green with the neck of a giraffe, a bushy mustache and speaks with an East Indian accent. He appears in various episodes, most notably "Beat With a Schtick". He is voiced by Tom Kenny.
• Fluffernutter is a pink squirrel imaginary friend. In the episode "The Little Peas", it is shown that she is in love with Jackie Khones. She is voiced by Grey DeLisle.
• Noteworth "Notey" Bookingham is the player's personal assistant in the online game Big Fat Awesome House Party. He appears at the beginning of the game to narrate the tutorial.

"Adoption" online

In 2005, Cartoon Network Latin America website gave viewers a chance to adopt an imaginary friend online, with Wilt, Coco, and Eduardo as their choices. Similar to the Neopets site from Nick.com, the web surfers gave their friends food to eat (some good, some not so good) and games to play to keep their imaginary friend happy. At the end of the promotional period, the adopters got a certificate thanking them for participating. In September 2005, a similar month long game was launched in the United States on Cartoon Network's official site, along with a separate link at FostersFriends.com. In addition to the four previously mentioned friends, players could adopt Uncle Pockets, Cheese, or Ivan. This updated version also used the voice actors associated with those characters, improved graphics, and increased use of Flash animation. Until December 10, 2005, those who made adoptions were able to keep an eye on them. Many of the character reactions have been incorporated into bumpers since May 29, 2006 on Cartoon Network. Through late 2006 and into 2007, this game was known as "Adopt An Imaginary Friend 2" on Cartoon Network's Latin American site.
