Revision as of 03:59, 22 July 2006
Enos is never confirmed as a Fry, the name may come from Mildred, and therefore Minuteman is her ancestor (perhaps). It does make more sense that her baby be named for her father rather than her deceased-fiance's-father.
- You have an excellent point, anonymous person. I shall now put to a vote whether it should be changed. Personally, I'll be abstaining, since I made the image and would probably vote to not change it, since that's more work for me -_- Buddy 13:57, 19 April 2006 (PDT)
- Perhaps noting the possibility beside the article would suffice, either way it can't be 100% certain and the current display is generally excepted. (anonymous was me) - Quolnok 18:24, 19 April 2006 (PDT)
