Burt - spelled with an "U" (yes it's "an") is popular

Burt Reynolds saved that.

There are still a lot of African Americans named Elmo, even young ones.

Actually his name is Aloysius. He is A snuffleupagus.

That would be like me calling Hillary Clinton, human.

Big Bird being a tool, called him Mr snuffleupagus

Did you know that Mr Hooper was supposed to be a parody of Don Loper, but he got pissed and threatened legal action.

So they changed this name to Hooper and had Big Bird do malapropisms of Looper as a legal dig.

Fortunately Benet Cert and Arlene Francis got the humor and were honored, not ashamed

I think Janice's name was taken after Janis Joplin, but her personality was modelled after joni Mitchell.

I have a friend named Kermit. He was in grade school when Sesame Street started and he took endless shit for his name. When he entered high school, he adopted his middle name as his first. He now uses K. David (last name) as his professional name. He's a CPA and when asked what the K stands for, he lies and responds "Kevin" - he just doesn't want to get into it. BUT his partner calls him Kermit and Froggy when they're in bed and he loves it!!

From Wiki: Aloysius Snuffleupagus (/ˌsnʌfəlˈʌpəɡəs/), more commonly known as Mr. Snuffleupagus, Snuffleupagus or Snuffy for short, is one of the characters on Sesame Street, an educational television program for young children.

He IS a Snuffleupagus, that isn't his name

This went some ways to redeem some of these names, and not so others. Poor hooker Prairie Dawn! Apparently this was an original idea from Harbor and a friend.

Well, what would you have a five year old call the mailman, by his first name?
