ReVoB: 9-29 (Patreon)

RvB's always given interesting treatment to character names. The last-name basis for most characters is a product of the military setting, of course, and even then shortcuts and nicknames abound ("Doc," for instance, was forced on Medical Officer Dufrense almost immediately in season 2.) One of my favorite season 3 jokes pokes fun at the fact that Church never learned Tucker's full name after years of being stationed together. And then it took ten seasons after Kaikaina Grif was introduced for her first name to even be uttered out loud in an episode. Names are funny things, indeed.
