From The Royal Tenenbaums:

“Why did you specifically have to point out I’m not a genius?”

“I just don’t use that word very lightly.”

I always thought it was a made up name too, but apparently it’s an archaic Dutch name. German version is Jost, which I imagine sounds like the Dutch version Joost, which is fairly common (I now one).

The English version is Joyce, which became a female name, which could explain why they didn’t want to use that and chose Jonathan instead. Maybe other languages just followed that choice? I don’t know. I much prefer Jodocus though.

Yeah, he is called that in Dutch as well. I got the English name from the Dutch page, but there’s no source mentioned.

Oh, I copied the English name from Wikipedia, suppose that’s wrong then.

It really is. I wish I could rewatch it, but it’s not on anymore unfortunately.

Growing up I really loved the animated series Alfred Jonathan Quack or Alfred Kvakk in Norwegian. It’s about a duck, his farther (I think) is a mole and the antagonist is a nazi-styled crow called Dolf. My favourite episode was about this island they visited which turned out to be the shell of this gigantic turtle.

Another favourite was The World of David the Gnome. It’s about a gnome who lives in or under a tree and has all sorts of adventures with animals. The books it’s based on are also great, I still have them.

I don’t know if you can still find these series since they’re pretty old.

It’s from a TV commercial, really annoying, with four guys sitting around a table talking about how cheap the hotel they’re at is. One guy says something like “yeah, only 300 bucks” and the others start laughing and repeating “you didn’t check trivao?”

I just wrote a few lines of PHP and put my posts in a SQLITE database. Simple, built to last and no dependance on others.
