Fans discuss whether Newman's first name is revealed to be Norman in "The Bottle Deposit," with disagreement over whether the farmer's daughter got his name correct or mistakenly called him Norman.

Re the Bottle episode (5/2) -- do we now know that Newman's first name is Norman? Norman Newman. It's dorky enough to be true.

I think the farmer daughter got it wrong. She wasn't with him long enough to get his right name.

Me too. She most definitely got the name wrong. She said Norman, but this was just a "bastardization" of the name Newman. I like the mystique of not knowing his first name. In fact, I wish we could go back to the good ole days of not knowing Kramer's first name too.

I agree, I think she was just saying it wrong or, knowing Newman, he gave her an alias!!! "hello, my name is New......uh Norman"

Either that, or her accent distorted Newman to Norman. I really don't think his first name is Norman, but I've been wrong before.

i also think the farm girl didnt know his name, but the extremely weird thing is that theres a person that me and my best friend know called norman and for the longest time weve been calling him newman and doing the whole 'hello newman' thing whenever we see him, consequently this scene was extremely hilarious to us

I thought she said Norman too but I wasn't sure I heard it right. I'm glad someone else heard it that way. I'm not sure if that means it is his name though.
