Mickey Mouse was almost named Mortimer

米老鼠差点被命名为“摩梯末”

 

When Walt Disney suggested the name to his wife, Lillian, she didn’t think the name matched the character’s personality. He later came up with Mickey Mouse, and the rest is history. Mortimer Mouse eventually became Mickey’s taller, more arrogant nemesis, sporadically appearing in print and short films since 1936.

 

华特迪士尼曾经向妻子莉莲建议,用“摩梯末”来命名米老鼠,但是他的妻子觉得这个名字不符合角色的人物特点。随后他想到用“米奇”这个名字,后来的故事就是我们都熟悉的历史了。“摩梯末”这个名字最终用在了比米奇更高、更傲慢敌人的身上,它从1936开始偶尔出现在印刷品和短片中。
