This is a list of characters appearing in the animated series Kim Possible.

Kimberly Ann "Kim" Possible is a crime fighter and high school cheerleading captain who saves the world on a regular basis while dealing with the normal challenges of being a teenager, such as winning cheer competitions, turning in her homework on time, and maintaining a love life. Her name is a play on the word "impossible." Kim has known Ron Stoppable, her sidekick for most missions, since preschool. She has also completed missions with Wade, Monique, her brothers, and even her mother. In season four, Kim and Ron end up developing romantic feelings for each other and begin dating during their senior year. She famously adopts untypical teen slang such as "So not the drama", "No big" ("no big deal"), as well as the series' catch phrase, "What's the sitch?" (slang for "situation") in her speech. A student at Middleton High School, she is popular and beautiful, as well as an excellent student and a natural athlete. She has a fiery and headstrong personality that often affects her work, yet she fulfills the role of a protagonist by using her intelligence and sensibility to 'save the day'. Though she struggles with embarrassment, her rivalry with Bonnie, and her shyness around her crushes, she often has extreme bouts of maturity, going so far as to act as Ron's conscience at times. She has a good relationship with her family members, though she is often annoyed by her brothers (whom she calls "Tweebs", for "Twin Dweebs"), and embarrassed by her parents' antics.

Ronald "Ron" Stoppable has been best friends with Kim since preschool and, as revealed in the opening of Larry's Birthday, live next door to each other. He serves as Kim's sidekick whenever they go on missions. Unlike Kim, Ron is a cowardly, goofy, clumsy, and accident-prone teenager, but he has saved the world on his own. He owns a pet naked mole-rat named Rufus who is also best friends with Ron and Kim and often helps them on their missions. In interviews, Bob Schooley and Mark McCorkle, the co-creators of Kim Possible, summed up Ron's role as comic relief for the entire series until the finale because, "He can't do anything." In addition, Ron is not as popular as Kim is at school and is constantly ridiculed and ignored by his peers. He does however, join the football team in his senior year, having previously served as team mascot, and is given the athletic nickname of "Unstoppable Stoppable". He has an adopted younger sister from Japan named Hana, who turns out to have mystical abilities of her own. In a few episodes, it is revealed that Ron and his family are devoutly Jewish.
