I just started watching the reboot/revival and am only now realizing the significance of some of the character names:

John, the baby, likely named to honor John Mahoney
- They named the bar after Mahoney as well.
Moose, the firefighter, named after the dog that played Eddie
David Crane is obviously named after DHP

I'm only on the 4th episode, so there may be more I missed or haven't noticed yet.

Possibly, yeah. They did honor Angell in a closing title card during the original airing. I guess it could be both. :shrug:

Well they had named the kid David before the original series even ended if I'm not mistaken.

All I remember is Roz picking the name Ichabod on the form when they were pre-registering him for the boujie school before he was born. lol.

And Niles worrying about the dreaded glottal stop if they named him Jack Crane.
