[edit] Old Man Root Beer

"Root beer" is the correct spelling. His name isn't spelled in the toon (except for his initals, O.M.R.B., which seems to indicate that it's two words), so shouldn't we use the two-word spelling? Gfdgsgxgzgdrc 00:07, 22 November 2018 (UTC)

Except that in the phrase "Old Man (something)", the "(something)" usually refers to the person's surname, which one would expect to be a single word. — Defender1031*Talk 01:12, 22 November 2018 (UTC)

That's true, but one would also expect that surname not to be Rootbeer. I'm not sure if we should be following the logic of normal names here. Gfdgsgxgzgdrc 03:18, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
