Fans discuss the significance of George's plan to name his son 'Seven', with most agreeing it's a tribute to Mickey Mantle's Yankees number combined with the name's uniqueness.

Hello all,

In a previous episode, George mentioned that if he had a son he would name him "Seven". Does anybody know the significance of this?

Your help is much appreciated.

As I recall, George just wanted to name his son a name that wasn't used very often. He just thought 7 would be a cool name. If I am wrong-let me know.

The most solid significance of the name "Seven" was that of a tribute to Mickey Mantle, who wore that number throughout his career with the Yankees. George, like all NY boys, is a big Yankee fan and idolized Mantle. Other than that, he just thought it would be uniquely cool.

7 was Mickey Mantle's # and thus George's favourite

remember...Kramer slugs Mickey Mantle during a Fantasy Camp donnybrook and was subsequently thrown out of Mantle's restaurant while trying to aplogize
