 >>I think that's a stretch.  If anything, I could see someone picking up on it 

and complaining that the character is Jewish and his name is a 

stereotypical, even derogatory, name for a Jew.  Is that term not used in 

England?<<



I can't speak to its use in England, but yeah, hearing "Hymie" is uncomfortable

for me based on the word's meaning here. Anyone remember Jesse Jackson's calling

NYC "Hymietown"?
