Talk:List of Gilligan's Island characters

Mary Ann
I think Mary Ann's last name was Mogley or something like that. Anyone?
 * Mary Ann's last name is correctly listed as Summers. See http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0005015/ --Wrk3 (talk) 18:14, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
 * You're thinking of Mary Ann Mobley, not the Gilligan's Island character. - Dravecky (talk) 09:01, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Mrs. Howell
Mrs. Howell's name is incorrectly given here and throughout Wikipedia as "Eunice". At no time during the series is Mrs. Howell ever referred to as "Eunice". Her first name is never stated to be anything other than "Lovey". I would fix this, but I've found that trying to fix errors in Wikipedia nowadays results in the edits being immediately reverted, followed by infantile threats of "I'll have you banned!" or "I'll have you blocked!". I don't bother correcting errors like this anymore. SimpsonDG (talk) 00:49, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

Gilligan
"In the never-aired pilot episode, it is revealed that his first name is Willy." This is false. I've watched the pilot episode, and he is only referred to as "Gilligan". Sherwood Schwartz had an idea that they might give him a first name of "Willy" if they ever had occasion to do that, but they never did. Gilligan never had anything other than an un-nom, "Gilligan". I won't fix this error, though, for reasons stated above. SimpsonDG (talk) 00:56, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

It seems pretty clear that the above comment is correct: Gilligan had only one name, and was certainly not given one in the pilot episode. See the Snopes article for more details. http://www.snopes.com/radiotv/tv/gilligan.asp I too shall refrain from editing the entry, as I have no dog in this fight.
