I heard last night, Jerry called her Mulva? She didn't think Jerry had a good enuf reason to break up with his previous girl friend.
Fans discuss Susan's death and debate the spelling/pronunciation of Dolores, with some confusion about character names and jokes about the name's similarity to body parts.

i think *Mulva* was just being polite by not correcting him when he said delores not Regina (ducking) Diane
I can't figure it out. What female body part does "Dolores" rhyme with?!?!?

DID ANYONE ELSE LIKE THE PREMIERE AND WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT??????? TO TALK ABOUT THE PREMIER AND *NOT* OTHER SUBJECTS THAT HAVE BEEN BEATEN TO DEATH AND PISS YOU OFF WHEN SOMEONE INTENTIONALLY STARTS IT UP AGAIN?
Okay, then - I really liked it. We have a new Kramer-ism: "Ka-ra-tay"
And of course, there was George screaming "KHAN!!!!" and Jerry
actually had some funny lines, like his comments about George and his
cheese, and his "I hate you" breakup.
And poor Elaine.....but the high point for me was when Kramer beat
up all those little kids. :] For a premier, nothing much happened, but
that's what I like about this show.
So far they're 1/1.-Simonfeld d:)

First of all, stop screaming my simple-witted friend! Second, "ka-ra-tay" is most certainly NOT a Kramerism. This is the way many, many people pronounce the word. Finished. Feel free to proceed in ignorance.

Yes... actually, to break out the word - "kara" means 'empty', "te" means 'hands'...... thus the term karate. Empty Hands.

He called her Dolores only to tease her about their earlier difficulty. An astute viewer would have caught the various allusions to her true name: Regina.

Yikes!! Where did you get that one?! In a previous episode Jerry couldn't remember her name. He played a little game about how embarassing names can be when they rhyme with something else (trying to get her to say her name). She said how embarassed she was as a kid because her name rhymed with a part of the female anatomy. Afterwards Jerry and George racked their brains trying to figure it out.(they come up with Gipple, etc.). George comes up with Mulva. The next time Jerry is with her, she confronts him and says that he doesn't know her name, to which he sheepishly responds, "Mulva?". She gets mad and leaves. It then hits Jerry and he yells after her "Delores!!".
That is why, he wanted her to know that he DID remember her name, but to George she will always be known as Mulva.(it's like an inside joke between Jerry and George).
