If Casey and April had a son... (in Mirage)
... what should he be named?
And remember, Casey Jones' real full name is Arnold Bernid Jones. "Casey" is just a nickname.

How much input did Laird have on the creation of Cody from FastForward? If he did have significant input, then I wouldn't be shocked if he would have gone with Cody in this scenario.
If I personally had to write a Mirage story about this idea, I might go with Cody because latter era Mirage didn't seem to mind bringing in 4Kids ideas anyway. But to tell you the truth, I don't think I would have a preference and might just pick a name at random, probably a common American boy's name like John or Mike... Wait, scratch Mike, that might give someone ideas along with Leo, Raph and Don... Oh, and certainly not Baxter, they would never name their son Baxter. In the IDW continuity, I have wondered if it would work for a story if they had a kid named Cody who was also the reincarnation of Darius Dunn. |

Post 4Kids, since TMNT just loves to self-reference itself and other iterations, will purposely call him Cody cause 'hey hey, like Cody from Fast Forward, get it? huh? huh? GET IT?'.

His adopted daughter's name is Shadow so I would opt for something like Light, Bright, Sunrise, Soleil or other names that refer to the light or the sun.

Raphie Jr.
Or maybe let's finally go ahead and make "Ralph" TMNT canon.

I don't think there was anything about that in Mirage. His dad is Herb Jones, not Arnold.

Wait a minute, Casey's name was never "Arnold Bernid Jones." His name was originally "Casey Bernid Jones" before eventually being retconned into "Arnold Casey Jones," which I'm pretty sure happened in Tales #56.
That said, I'm fairly certain he'd name his son Casey. No Jr., just Casey and Little Casey. |

Of course, I don't think "Arnold" Jones was even a thought until CAW. But it seems fairly compatible with everything else.

Laird, no. Murphy, yes... but he never remembers anything. I'll ask Tristan what he remembers, just for fun.

If it were being written right now, their hypothetical child would choose their own name and gender independent from any parental suggestions or input.
After all, who are April and Casey to undermine their child's agency in such a way? Assigning a name or gender to a child is a form of child abuse, nothing more.

You know that's how Campbell would write it.

Because while every iteration of TMNT has had some mind-numbingly stupid stuff, that right there is WAY up there on the "Y'all Smokin' Crack, Dawg" scale. Like, if you hate some of the FW stuff but can try and defend THAT, then your bias is showing. I mean, the whole meta thing they were trying to do with it wasn't even clever or cute. "I mean, if you think about it... ALL these characters are just 'magical drawings brought to life by the power of imagination', right? Riiiight?!" Barf. I'm calling it, that sh*t was one of Laird's acid flashbacks from his college days. Or maybe he did shrooms again for old times' sake and this was the result. Either way... not good.

It was rather tragic and triumphant at the same time. People are dumb.
