Rugrats includes a large array of characters: family, friends, extended relatives, townspeople, and fictional characters. This is a list of characters from the original 1990sNickelodeonanimated television series, its various films, itsAll Grown Up! spin-off, and the 2021reboot.
Thomas Malcolm "Tommy" Pickles (voiced byE. G. Daily, Tami Holbrook in the unaired pilot)[1] is the older son of Stu and Didi Pickles and serves as the series' mainprotagonist. Tommy, a 1-year-old, is portrayed as remembering the day of his birth in the episode "Stu-Maker's Elves". He lives with his parents and younger brother. Numerous episodes are set in the Pickles family home, focusing on Tommy and his family. In the series premiere episode, "Tommy's First Birthday", he is a 1-year-old and seems to remain that age throughout the entirety of the show. Tommy is the youngest of the babies until the birth of his brother inThe Rugrats Movie. As an infant, Tommy is often seen crawling and walking somewhat unsteadily andpigeon-toed. He uses his diaper as a pocket, storing his screwdriver and other things he finds. Tommy is a brave child with a strong sense of justice, always eager for adventure and unafraid to stand up for what is right. His best friends are Chuckie and his dog, Spike. In the episode "Mother's Day," it is indicated that Tommy was born full term, but he was spending the first week or two of his life in an incubator, which explains his bravery and lack of taking life for granted.
Charles Crandall Norbert "Chuckie" Finster Jr. (voiced byChristine Cavanaugh in 1991–2001 andNancy Cartwright in 2002–present) is the son of Charles "Chas" Finster, a widower andbureaucrat, and his late spouse, Melinda Finster, and is Tommy's best friend. Unlike Tommy, Chuckie is clumsy and timid, he rarely expresses any desire to go on one of the babies' adventures, instead listing all the reasons they should not go on one. Whenever Tommy and Dil's cousin Angelica try to bully them, Chuckie unquestionably accepts her treatment and gives in to any possible demands. Chuckie is two years old, making him the eldest of the babies, therefore he is the first of them to bepotty trained. Like Tommy, according to the episode "Stu-Maker's Elves", it is implied that he also remembers the day of his birth. InRugrats in Paris: The Movie, Chuckie adds a Japanese stepmother, Kira Watanabe — who later adopts him — and an older Japanese French American stepsister, Kimi. In said film, he also says his first word, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" to the grown-ups when he eventually stops his father marrying Coco LaBouche. His character design was loosely based onMark Mothersbaugh, the lead composer for the series.[2]
Angelica Charlotte Pickles (voiced byCheryl Chase) is the 3-year-old daughter of Drew and Charlotte Pickles, Stu and Didi's niece, and Tommy and Dil's cousin. Angelica serves as the series'antagonist, regularly threatening the babies physically, verbally, manually, financially, or sometimes psychologically and lying to them for her amusement. In her own home, Angelica is an only child who lives with her workaholic mother and hard-working father, who shower her with toys and admiration. Without any parental guidance or boundaries, Angelica has largely been left to determine for herself what is right and wrong, with her idea of "right" normally being what she wants. She ismaterialistic, devious, and self-centered. Though she torments the babies, Angelica stands up for them against others and expresses a genuine desire to be friends with them. The season 3 penultimate episode "Moving Away" explains how she and the babies first met each other, although this episode is presumably non-canon due to contradictions from others.
Philip Richard William "Phil" DeVille andLillian Marie Jill "Lil" DeVille (both voiced byKath Soucie) are the children of Howard and Betty DeVille. They live next door to Tommy and arefraternal twins, with Lil older than Phil by two minutes. They share many similarities, including the same hairstyle and love fordirt andeating bugs andearthworms. They argue with one another frequently, and usually call each other by their full names, Phillip and Lillian. Looking so much alike, they are often mistaken for one another by adults, with the main facial difference between the two being that Phil's earlobes are attached while Lil's are not. They are both the same age as Tommy.
Susanna Yvonne "Susie" Carmichael (voiced byCree Summer) is the youngerAfrican-American daughter of Randy and Dr. Lucy Carmichael, and Tommy's neighbor. Her family buys a home on Tommy's street in "Meet the Carmichaels," and their mothers become close friends. Susie bonds well with the babies despite the age difference, considering them her friends. While she doesn't often get along with Angelica, she makes a conscious effort to be nice to her, serving as the voice of reason for Angelica's lies and generally being kinder to the babies. Like her mother, Susie excels in various aspects of her life and has a kind and warm attitude. Her only real character flaw is her competitiveness. While she was the same age as Angelica in the original series, she is 1-2 years old in the reboot, the same age as Chuckie, meaning that in the 2020s version, she was born in 2019.
Dylan Prescott "Dil" Pickles (voiced byTara Strong) is the youngest son of Stu and Didi Pickles, and Tommy's younger brother. He was born in the 1998 filmThe Rugrats Movie and is the youngest of the babies. Dil rarely partakes in their adventures and is often seen drooling, crying a lot, or babbling like a normal baby. Because of his young age, most of the time Dil cannot understand the babies and the babies cannot understand him. However, he does mature in the sequel seriesAll Grown Up!.
Kimi Watanabe-Finster (voiced byDionne Quan in 2000–2008 andCharlet Chung in 2021–present) is the daughter of her biological father and mother, Hiro Watanabe and Kira Watanabe-Finster and is Chuckie's younger Japanese stepsister. Her mother marries Chuckie's father Chas inRugrats in Paris: The Movie and he later adopts her, assuming the role of her father. Kimi's boldness enables her to interact easily with the other babies, especially Tommy. She is protective of her older brother, while at the same time encouraging him to stand up for himself. She was born in October 5, 1988. She isJapanese-American. While she was one and a half years old in the original series, she is 3 and a half years old in the reboot,[3] making her around the same age as Angelica, and acts as the voice of reason instead of Susie.
"Spike the Dog" redirects here. For other fictional dogs named Spike, seeSpike (character) § Dogs.
Spike (voiced byMichael Bell in a dream sequence in the episode "In the Dreamtime",Frank Welker inRugrats in Paris: The Movie, andBruce Willis inRugrats Go Wild) is the Pickles' familydog. Though he appears in almost every episode of the series, he is not usually featured as a main part of episodes. Tommy claims him to be his best "animal" friend. The character is considered a main character in the series, appearing in almost three-quarters of all of the episodes, though he usually does not come along when the Rugrats venture to new locations. It is mentioned in "Spike Runs Away" that his breed is a fictional "Siberian Tiger Hound". As shown inThe Rugrats Movie andRugrats Go Wild, Spike is very protective of the babies as he sees them as part of his family.
Stuart Louis "Stu" Pickles (voiced byJack Riley as an adult in 1991–2008,E. G. Daily as a baby in "Sour Pickles",Tress MacNeille as a baby in "Fountain of Youth" andTommy Dewey in 2021–present) is Tommy and Dil's easygoing father and younger brother of Drew. He is an absent-minded toy inventor who only wants to be a good provider for his family, although he would often act like the titular babies. He is married to Didi Pickles and has been Chas' best friend since childhood. It is implied in theAll Grown Up! special that Stu's birthday is on or around October 23, as his birthday falls on thecusp ofLibra andScorpio. In eachRugrats film, either Stu's actions or inventions help set the story in motion. By the story's end, he somehow manages to save the day.
Didila "Didi" Pickles (née Kropotkin) (voiced byMelanie Chartoff in 1991–2008 andAshley Rae Spillers in 2021–present) is Tommy and Dil's mother. She is a part-timeteacher[4] and married to Stu.

Out of all the adults, she takes the child psychologist Dr. Werner Lipschitz the most seriously.[6]

Lou would often bring up stories of his youth and even bring up historical moments involving his late brother Sparky. InWorld War II while training for the army, he crippled his right leg on his mattress and was discharged from the army, only to be drafted into the Navy. In the reboot series, Grandpa Lou is depicted as ahippie where he is shown with a ponytail, wearing tie-dye shirts, and often doing yoga. It is possible that in his youth he was aVietnam veteran. Grandpa Lou's stories tended to be exaggerated and he also had an obsession with the number15.
Andrew Louis "Drew" Pickles (voiced byMichael Bell in 1991–2007 andTimothy Simons in 2021–present) is Angelica's busy working father and Stu's older brother, married to Charlotte. Like his sibling, he is something of a man-child. A well-paid investment banker,[5] Drew does not always get along with his brother, and the two often bicker over petty problems. Hiscatchphrase (when addressing Angelica) is "Princess" or (after receiving an order or command from Charlotte) "Noted". Drew is not afraid to put his foot down whenever Angelica gets into trouble and he is usually the one to punish her like not giving herdessert for a week, amongst other disciplinary actions.
Charlotte Pickles (voiced byTress MacNeille in 1992–2007,Anna Chlumsky in 2021–present) is Angelica's workaholic mother, theCEO of her own company known as MegaCorp, and married to Drew. She tries to be a good mother but is usually sidetracked by business interests.

In the reboot series, she is acouncilperson and their house is significantly larger than the one in the original.
Elizabeth "Betty" DeVille (voiced byKath Soucie in 1991–2008,Natalie Morales in 2021–present) is Phil and Lil's mother, a former wrestler, and Didi's best friend. Very athletic and feminist. Married to Howard, she helps operate the Java Lava Coffee House with Chas Finster. In the reboot series, Betty is portrayed as a lesbian single mother.[7] Betty also owns a coffee house in the reboot series, but now as sole proprietor of the renamed Betty's Beans.[7] Morales stated "Anyone who watched the original show may have had an inkling Betty was a member of theAlphabet Mafia".[8]
Howard "Howie" DeVille (voiced byPhil Proctor) is Phil and Lil's mild-manneredstay at home father who is unemployed. Howie is often overpowered by, and cringing towards, his wife Betty. Though Howard has not appeared in the reboot series yet, he did make a picture frame cameo in "Tooth or Share".

In the reboot series, Kira and Kimmie moved from France. While not married to Chas yet, she did become friends with him. Kira works as alibrarian.
Dr. Lucille "Lucy" Carmichael (voiced by Cheryl Carter in 1993–1997, Lisa Dinkins in 1993,Hattie Winston in 1998–2007 andNicole Byer in 2021–present) is Susie's mother and Randy's wife. She is aHarvard-educated "wonder mom", and has a job as adoctor, having delivered Dil, and removed Susie'stonsils. The latter would have been unethical in real life since Susie is related to Lucille.
Randall "Randy" Carmichael (voiced byRon Glass in 1993–2007 andOmar Benson Miller in 2021–present) is married to Lucy Carmichael and is Susie's father. In the original series, Randy is ascreenwriter for the famous cartoonThe Dummi Bears Show, which, like the show's creator Paul Gatsby, he is not particularly proud of.

Initially, he is fooled by Coco into believing she loves children and is engaged to Chuckie's father, Chas. This prompts him to pass over the promotion to Coco after the wedding.
