Corrections...

I've noticed people call Raph "Ralph" and spell Michaelangelo "Michelangelo". Michelangelo is a renaissance artist, Michaelangelo is a Ninja Turtle. Doesn't this bother anyone else?

You are wrong, in all current and future TMNT project correct spelling is used. So it is Michelangelo.

I don't think the spelling matters to me. It was spelled "Michaelangelo" in the old cartoon, movies, and the older comics. It was changed to "Michelangelo" later on. Mike, Mikey, Michelangelo, Michaelangelo... It doesn't matter to me.

Yeah, I know. That doesn't mean everyone will agree to it. I know that the right spelling will stay from now on, that's for sure. Either way, it doesn't bother me at all.

Whoa!

Michaelangelo is resolved, yet I see a suprising amount of people call Raph "Ralph". I didnt know if this was some thing that everyone does to make his name more American sounding or if they are just idiots.

My roommate is a mexican not an American. So I'm going with the idiot theory.

Ralph. That's a good one although I can't remember anyone ever using it.

I never tried to spell Mikey's name though. I just take the easy way out like so.

It ALWAYS annoys me whenever I see Raph spelled as "Ralph". Seems like an honest mistake that a spellchecker would miss (or even use in place of "Raph".) Once I understand, but every single time it appears?!? *bangs her head on her desk*
