List of Kyle XY characters

Kyle XY characters

Main characters

• Kyle Trager (Matt Dallas) is the main character, a teenage boy with no bellybutton and no memory of who he is or how he got there. His strange case is referred to Nicole Trager, a therapist who takes him home. Kyle must learn to do everyday things like eat and drink, speak, and avoid hurting himself. Season 1 follows Kyle as he learns about how people live, but nothing of who he is. Season 2 answers how and why he exists, and begins his efforts toward what he is supposed to do.
• Nicole Trager (Marguerite MacIntyre) is the psychologist who takes in Kyle as a foster child as well as a patient for his "amnesia". She is married to Stephen Trager, with an older daughter Lori and son Josh. Nicole is Kyle's main help and moral anchor throughout the series.

• Josh Trager (Jean-Luc Bilodeau) is the son of Nicole and Stephen Trager, the younger brother of Lori and then Kyle. Josh is more interested in pornography than school, and is devoted to "G-Force" online gaming. He introduces Kyle to basketball. During season 1 he must first get into high school and then get out of remedial classes. Josh is scheming and mercenary, and accidentally predictive about Kyle.
• Declan McDonough (Chris Olivero) is a spoiled rich-kid and high school basketball star. He is soon the ex-boyfriend of Lori Trager, yet remains in love with her through the series. Declan's best friend is Charlie Tanner. He also becomes close friends with Kyle, sharing Kyle's secrets and adventures through the series.
• Amanda Bloom (Kirsten Prout) is "the girl next-door" to the Tragers. Kyle is drawn to the sound of her piano and immediately is in love with her. She also feels an attraction to Kyle, but her mother tries to keep them apart. Kyle is afraid that Amanda will not like him the same if she knows of his origins, yet she learns of many of his strange ways and abilities. Their romance continues through the series.
