What is the real name of the superhero Frozone?

The story behind the answer

Frozone’s real name is Lucius Best.

Lucius Best is Bob Parr’s best friend and former superhero partner in The Incredibles. Operating under the name Frozone, he can create and manipulate ice by drawing moisture from the air. Samuel L. Jackson voices him in the two theatrical films, giving the character his cool, quick-witted style.

Lucius is introduced as a retired superhero living under the government’s Superhero Relocation Program. Like Bob, he finds civilian life restrictive. The two men secretly resume superhero activity, responding to emergencies while trying to avoid detection. Lucius’s ice powers allow him to freeze surfaces, create ice paths, and immobilize threats.

The name “Frozone” is the superhero alias, not his civilian identity. Other names in the film are easy to confuse with it: Robert Parr is Mr. Incredible, Buddy Pine becomes Syndrome, and Gazerbeam is another superhero whose fate is connected to Syndrome’s Omnidroid experiments. Frozone remains an important ally when the Parr family confronts Syndrome and the final Omnidroid in Metroville.
