"My name's Hiccup. Great name, I know. But it's not the worst. Parents believe a hideous name will frighten off gnomes and trolls."―(How To Train Your Dragon) Hiccup about himself.
Hiccup is the main character of the How To Train Your Dragon book series and the 2010 DreamWorks film adaptation, where he is voiced by Jay Baruchel. His full name is Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third, the Hope and Heir to the Tribe of the Hairy Hooligans. He's son of the chief, Stoick the Vast, thus making him heir to the tribe. In the first film he's 15 years old, and 20 in How To Train Your Dragon 2. His dragon, Toothless is a Night Fury, the rarest and most intelligent of the dragon species in the film.
Hiccup appeared in How to train your Dragon 2, fives years older and very much different than the first film.
