I read somewhere there were actually only 51 story plots, with a multitude of variants. Seems like too few, but they could be compressed down to that number. Might be fun naming them.

My submission:

Mixup - our hero is set to marry but mistakes someone else for his bride. (I suppose this culd be a subset of "Marriage Gone Wrong")

Transformation - a spell /a potion/a machine transforms our hero into a dog/a shrinking man/a cockroach

For some reason a lot of Shakespeare's plays come to mind. He must have covered quite a few.
