What is nonsensical about the name Doug Douglas?

[edit]

The article talks about the supporting characters of the show and says that the main character's father's name "makes no sense" or words to that effect, because it is Doug Douglas. I think that's silly. Sure, it may seem a bit unusual to a young person but it's not that odd really. Take for instance the man named Glen Glenn, described here at IMDB. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0322600/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1 I first saw that name in the credits for old TV shows and movies when I was very young and thought it looked odd but it's actually a real name of a real person. Why adults with the last name Glenn would choose to name their son Glen is beyond me but human beings do some pretty strange things with names sometimes. The boxer/businessman George Foreman has five sons, each named George. Look up Dweezil Zappa, son of Frank Zappa, and you'll find that his name has a very unexpected source origin: it was Frank's nickname for one of his wife's toes! By that standard, Doug Douglas is a very routine name indeed! I simply mean that, in my opinion, the remark about the name Doug Douglas should simply be removed as inappropriate in my opinion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.0.146.75 (talk) 21:55, 16 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's pure interpretive rubbish added in this edit by Keylonrocks7356 and I have removed it. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 01:52, 17 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
