Kif's full name is Kif Kroker.
I guess Fry just like the Fry better than Phillip. Even Mr. Panucci in "Space Pilot 3000" calls him Fry.

But Leela wouldn't know about the last name/first name bit until "Leela's Homeworld". Up until "Leela's Homeworld" everybody thinks Leela is her lastname.

So, if we consider that Leela is her first name, than the question is: She (Leela) certainly calls Fry by his last name, though Fry, Bender and others call Leela by her first name. IMHO, it's very strange, isn't it?

Please forgive me this offtopic, but I have one question. Why I don't see my signature? Its very important for me, because I am from Russia, and I always have to apologize like this: "Excuse me my bad English, cause I am from Russia" ? So if there would be too many mistakes in my messges, just tell me and I shut up -------------------------- And what can you say about this: "Problem Whith Poplers": Linda: Tonight, on Date Night: Popplers - eating them. Is it all right to? We have with us the C.E.O. of Fishy Joe's Mr. Fishy Jo Gilman, noted anti-eating activist, Free Waterfall, Jr., and the discoverer of popplers, Captain Turanga Leela. Fry: Turanga? Amy: That's her name, Philip. Bender: Philip? Does it means that Turanga is her first name like Philip is his?

General concensous around here is that Leela is her first name but since she's from a different society (sewers) or whatever they don't say Leela Turanga, they say Turanga Leela like with her father who's called Maurice, his name is Turanga Maurice. Last Name then First Name. It's rather complicated but do you get what I mean? I wouldn't worry about your English Loki, we've had born and bred Englishmen making a complete mess of the language. I don't know why your sig doesn't show though.

My money's on that you're using Quikpost, and you can't use your sig with QP. Try hitting "reply" at the bottom of the page or "quote" underneath someone else's post.

They were both mentioned in the episode. Don't remember where, though.

Today I watched “Leela Homeworld” again. And I come to a conclusion that truly Leela is her name and Turanga is her 'family name'. And nothing can force me to change my mind . In fact, I noticed that her mother called her dad Morris. But it means nothing. His name may be Turanga Morris or Morris Leela, though the last one sounds unattractive for my Russian ear . BUT! Do you remember the last scene when her mother put a box with a birthday gift for Leela? It was signed: “Happy birthday Leela”. It became clear for me that Leela is her name. Because parents would never sign the birthday present for their beloved daughter using her FAMILY name. (I hope I say it in the right way and you understand what I mean)
