Arnold and family
Arnold (last name not given, voiced by J.D. Daniels, Toran Caudell, Phillip Van Dyke, Spencer Klein, and Alex D. Linz) is the protagonist of the show. He is a dreamer and an idealist who always tries to see the best in people and to do the right thing. He often goes out of his way to help his friends and classmates when he sees them in trouble. He has a love for music, particularly jazz. His head is shaped like an American football; Helga often calls him "Football Head."

 *  Grandma Gertie (voiced by Tress MacNeille) is Arnold's grandmother. Gertie, along with Phil, runs the Sunset Arms boarding house.  She has a habit of mixing up holidays in holiday episodes of the show, and often wears strange outfits and does strange behavior.

Helga and her family
Helga Pataki (voiced by Francesca Marie Smith) is a classmate of Arnold's. She has a secret crush on Arnold but hides it by bullying him. Helga is something of a tomboy, as evidenced by her interest in playing contact sports alongside her male classmates, blatant lack of femininity, and disregard, to near dislike, for stereotypical female behavior. She is inteligent, but not as smart as her sister, Olga, who her parents will always compare her to.
 * "Big" Bob Pataki (voiced by Maurice LaMarche) is Helga's father, a successful pager salesman. Bob rarely notices Helga and often criticizes her for not being more like her over-achieving sister, Olga
 * Mariam Pataki (voiced by Kath Soucie) is Helga's mother.  she is depressed, forgetful, and often struggles to stay conscious.
 * Olga Pataki (voiced by Nika Frost) is Helga's sister. She is an over-achieving student.  Helga is jealous of Olga's image of perfection and the attention she receives from both Big Bob and Miriam.
