Since it's obvious that Newman dosen't have a name, why don't we name him? I vote for "Edwin Newman." It's meant to be an ironic play on the great NBC newsman of the same name. Bob. "You're banned from the store."

❓ Question
Fans discuss what Newman's first name should be, with suggestions including Edwin, Clarence, Aloysius, and Boutros-Boutros, though some argue Newman is sufficient as is.

Clarence Aloysius
Personally I think that Newman is good enough. I never needed a name for Kramer, although the whole Cosmo thing was quite interesting. Does anyone know when Newman first appeared on the show?
Newman first appears in episode 32, The Suicide. In that episode, he says that he doesn't eat fruit because it makes him incontinent and doesn't go to the beach since he freckles.
Hello Newman!!
I vote for either Stuart, because I think he looks like a Stuart.
Or Howard, which is the name of my exboyfriend. The relationship didn't end on a good note, and I think I would say his name with as much contempt as "Hello Newman" is said, had I the occasion to do so again.

Has "Boutros-Boutros Newman" been suggested yet?

I thought I saw a reply early this week on this subject. A brother to a guy who works on the Sienfeld set said his first name was Mitchum. Did anyone else see this or am I seeing things.
