If the character is credited as "Bad Polly", should we change the article title? -- Danny (talk) 14:47, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

It is weird that he is called "Bad Polly" in the credits, but "Polly Lobster" throughout the film. I can't remember if he was ever called Bad Polly on-screen in the movie. The action figure that came with the Captain Smollett Action Figure was listed as "Polly Lobster", but it seems like Palisades Toys often went along with what the fans knew (I think Pops' guest book had Boppity's signature, listed as Boppity instead of "Blue Frackle", the name that Henson officially used). Still, Polly was called "Bad Polly" throughout the Sing-Along video based on the movie. --Minor muppetz 20:30, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
I would support moving it to "Bad Polly". "Bad Polly" comes from the credits and was used in the sing-along. "Polly" was used in all of the movie's dialog, with "Polly Lobster" being used once on-screen (in Samuel Arrow's roll call). -- Brad D. (talk) 19:40, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
Maybe it could be moved to "Bad Polly" Lobster (or just Bad Polly Lobster, without the quotation marks). --Minor muppetz 03:37, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
