Meet John Doe

"Meet John Doe" is a phrase used to introduce an ordinary or typical person, often in the context of fictional stories, plays, or movies. It refers to an average, everyday individual whose character helps explore social issues, human nature, or community life. The term is sometimes used to symbolize the common citizen or the everyday person’s perspective. Originally, it gained popularity as the title of a 1941 film, but generally, it signifies a relatable, unremarkable individual who can serve as a stand-in for the general public in narratives or discussions.
