“Beep bo bop”
― Boyfriend, Friday Night Funkin'
Boyfriend is the protagonist of Friday Night Funkin'. He is on a mission to gain approval to date his girlfriend, but must sing off against her evil ex-rockstar father, Daddy Dearest, as well as the many other characters that stand in his way.

Appearance
Boyfriend is a young, light-skinned man with spiky cyan hair. He wears a white T-shirt with a red prohibition sign, baggy blue pants, red sneakers and a backward red cap with a dark blue brim. He holds a microphone in his right hand while keeping his left hand in his pocket.

During Week 5, he wears a red parka, light blue pants and brown snow boots.

During Week 6, his regular appearance is rendered in a 32-bit style.

During the last track of Week 7, he holds Girlfriend up by the waist with his left hand.

Personality
Boyfriend is portrayed as a young, overzealous rapper with a love for music, donuts and his girlfriend. He loves to sing and show off his skills, resulting in his confident and cocky character. He is very determined and persistent on reaching his goals and won't let anyone get in the way of his success, even if threatened with death. Boyfriend is also implied to be clingy, as he is never seen without Girlfriend by his side.

Boyfriend has been diagnosed with ADHD and ASD, sometimes he may choose not to communicate normally with strangers and will simply beep at them instead of using his words and is rarely found without his red cap.

Trivia
ninjamuffin99, PhantomArcade and Kawai Sprite have all stated that Boyfriend's name is simply Boyfriend.
An official T-shirt created in collaboration with PKettles and Shark Robot refers to him as Boyfriend.
Additionally, there are currently two opening lines in the intro sequence that de-confirms two names: "His name isn't Evan, silly TikTok" and "His name isn't Keith, dumb eggy lol."
ninjamuffin99 has made a TikTok pleading with people to stop calling him Keith, saying, "His name, his name isn't Keith, it's not Keith. I'm, I'm sick of seeing everyone calling him Keith." He has also confirmed his name to simply be Boyfriend on Reddit.
The lyrics "boil 'lil boyfriend," in Winter Horrorland also refer to Boyfriend by name.
Boyfriend is his only canonical and official name. However, ninjamuffin99 has intentionally confused the community by spouting out random names on his Twitter and TikTok accounts. There have been several attempts to figure out his name (names in bold have been de-confirmed), including:
Keith (on Twitter, has been de-confirmed several times to not be his name).
Evan (on TikTok, based on misheard lyrics from the song Monster).
Luis (on Twitter, named after Luis).
Cam (on Twitter, based on ninjamuffin99's real name, Cameron. It was commonly used after becoming the first result when searching for Boyfriend's name on Google).
Jack (on TikTok, not de-confirmed so far).

Additionally, his shoe laces were originally blue instead of white.

One of Tankman's Game Over quotes questions (and mocks) the nature of his hair color, stating, "I guess your shitty blue hair dye got in your eyes. It's okay, it happens to all of us."
Boyfriend is canonically 19 years old.
A popular headcanon within the FNF community was that Pico is Boyfriend's ex. This headcanon gathered so much traction that Tom Fulp, the creator of Pico, tweeted jokingly that "this is official Pico 2 canon," leading people to believe that it was true. ninjamuffin99 has stated that this was a joke, but later changed his mind and confirmed it was canon.
ninjamuffin99 and PhantomArcade have confirmed that Pico and Boyfriend are exes on Reddit, Twitter and Twitch several times.
This also means that Boyfriend is bisexual.
