Alvin and the Chipmunks

Capricorn

Alvin Seville

Alvin is an emotional roller coaster. His enthusiasm is boundless and his despair bottomless. The term look before you leap definitely doesn't apply to Alvin, who is impulsive, charming, musical and full of animal magnetism. What others might characterize as half-baked schemes, Alvin prefers to see as challenging the ordinary. Alvin's signature color is red, and he has golden eyes in the movie and blue eyes in the series. He also has light brown fur in the movie. He plays the guitar, piano and harmonica. And is also the middle child and leader of the chipmunks.

Simon Seville

In addition to having an IQ just north of Einstein, Simon possesses a very dry sense of humor as well as a keen wit. His chess master mind allows him to anticipate Alvin's hare-brained schemes (Simon's phrase, not Alvin's) and devise the solution that is invariably required. In the end, Simon loves Alvin, although he secretly worries that they share the same gene pool. His signature color is blue, and he has blue-gray eyes. He also has brown fur in the film. He plays the bass, tuba and keyboard. He is the oldest brother of the three.

Theodore Seville

Theodore is the child of innocence. He is shy, loving, sensitive, gullible, trusting, naive and cute. In short, he is an easy target for Alvin's manipulations. In fact, Theodore often holds the swing vote between his two brothers' choices of action. Simon appeals to Theodore's better nature while Alvin goes straight to bribery. He is constantly craving snacks. Theodore's signature color is green, and has green eyes. He also has blonde/tan fur in the film. His plays the guitar, triangle, and drums. He is the baby of the group.

David "Dave" Seville

Like any other single parent trying to raise three kids, let alone three hyperactive chipmunks, David Seville, or "Dave" to his friends and the boys, has his patience tested on a daily basis. Not only does he juggle his professional life as the songwriter for the musical trio, but he's also the Chipmunks' father and confidant. While Dave struggles to remain calm and objective, Alvin often pushes him over the edge, resulting in Dave's famous yell, "AAAAL-VIIIIN!!" which Alvin often replies with a loud "OK!!" Dave plays piano and the guitar.
