Actors you call by character names

You know those actors that play that one character in a movie/tv show and whatever they did before or after that role, they will always be known as that character for the rest of their lives. I was thinking about this when I saw the Heineken commercial with NPH and I thought to myself, theres Barney Stinson. If you saw an actor in public, and said to your friend/family member, hey there's _______! What are the actors you would call by their character name instead of their real name. I'll start with a few.

NPH: Barney Stinson

Bob Saget: Danny Tanner

John Stamos: Uncle Jessie

Christopher McDonald: Shooter McGavin

The guy who plays George Feeny: Feeny

Go

 
Jerry Seinfeld.

/ But also George Castanza, Elaine and Kramer.

I call Leonardo DiCaprio the same character he plays in every movie, "Leonardo DiCaprio with a slightly different accent".

 
NPH - Dr. Horrible

President David Palmer - the All-State guy.

Jon Snow. He knows nothing.

 
Jim Parsons is usually "you know, Sheldon Cooper from Big Bang Theory" for me because I can never remember his name off the top of my head.

 
Mark Wahlberg. Regardless of what character he plays in any movie he will always just be Mark Wahlberg.

 
Daniel Radcliffe: Harry Potter. Doesnt matter what he does the rest of his career, he will always be HP in every movie
