re: #237 Dangerman

just this morning i said to mrsdm it was a fate that hanna-barbera managed to find an out of work/available gorilla named Magilla.

Bob Gorilla or Dave Gorilla never would have worked as a show.

and why do some ‘toons use ‘the’ as their middle name and some dont?
kermit
felix
fritz
sylvester

vs
bugs
daffy
tweety
huckleberry
etc

and then there are those who just have names
quickdraw
baba looey
miss piggy

then mrsdm stopped talking to me

Sylvester is commonly known as Sylvester the Cat, but his name is actually Sylvester James Pussycat, Sr.

So, it seems that Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies did not use “the” in official names. Apparently it depends on which universe the characters exist in as to naming conventions.
