To differentiate his homophonic name from that of Ed, everyone in the series calls him Double-D.

When is it ever suggested that Edd is homophobic? Zeldafanjtl (talk) 16:49, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

It must just be vandalism. I'll correct it immediately. Cinemaniac (talk • contribs • critique) 17:37, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Heh heh...looks like someone already beat me to it.  :) For the record, that should be "homophonic", not "homophobic". That's common fodder for vandals that I've had to revert several times before. Cinemaniac (talk • contribs • critique) 17:40, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

I dug back into history, and the article never said that. Either the person who started this misunderstood the reference, or was kidding around. -- Elaich ^talk 17:53, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Actually, it did, at least once, say something of that nature, but I think the last time I reverted such an edit was months ago. — Cinemaniac (talk • contribs • critique) 19:23, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Rolf's Chickens

Rolf had at least six chickens, not four. Because near the end the episode An Ed Is Born, the Eds steal one chicken for every kid in the cul-de-sac to use to move cardboard cutouts that resembled them. Joey368 (talk) 04:08, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

 Done I added it. — Cinemaniac (talk • contribs) 14:44, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

Guys, just wait and see if there's still actually a movie first, before you start speculating. — Cinemaniac (talk • contribs) 00:08, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Rolf's Origin

He's from Norway. As you can see it in the [episode] No Speak Da Ed --90.190.195.86 (talk) 11:05, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

No, he is NOT from Norway. -- Elaich ^talk 18:06, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Just because Rolf said he knew a person from Norway doesn't mean he is from Norway. I know a guy from Germany, but that doesn't mean I'm German.-- Jspyster1 (talk) 20:07, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Perhaps not, since Danny Antonucci described him as not being specific to any country, but I'm sure he had a specific country somewhere in the back of his mind, being the son of immigrants himself. Even as the writer/director, he can screw up on occasion. I think this episode was one such flub, and served to unintentionally give away Rolf's origin. Consider the following:

• We know Rolf is from somewhere in that general area of the world, as evidenced by his thick accent, slightly broken English, and off-the-wall customs.
• The figure who chased Rolf in his flashback is clearly a human being, having skin and human fingernails, and was wearing an outfit appropriate to the period and region, along with wooden clog shoes. The "wolf's head" was obviously a mask (and can be seen flipping into the air when Rolf attacks the figure).
• Upon Edd's timely receipt of a feather duster from his pen-pal, Gerta, Rolf realizes that the sender is really "Gerta the Goat Milker", and that she was just playing pranks based on his fear/hate of wolves (his "sworn enemy"). This suggests that the human "attacker" from the flashback was really Gerta as well.
• The viewer gets the clear impression that Rolf explicitly wants to get back at her for the wolf-based pranks. Being well versed in Gerta's fame and her antics, he knows specifically how to respond such that he gets "the last laugh".
• Throughout the series, characters' eyes are drawn in different, rather consistent styles to represent specific emotional states. At his realization that the whole wolf thing was just a prank, Rolf's eyes went from the "horror story" style to the "sane and semi-rational" style, suggesting that he was no longer upset.
• Rolf was just a child for much of his stay in his home country, as evidenced by that flashback and comments he has made in previous episodes. Children don't routinely stray very far from home, and since he travels primarily by foot or animal-drawn wagon, he wouldn't get very far in any reasonable time frame if he did. In other words, he had to have lived fairly close to Gerta.
• We can chalk up the wolf sounds during the flashback as simply the result of slightly faded memories. We all tend to embellish a little over time. Furthermore, realistic sounds are frequently used in the series whenever someone is acting like (or just dressed as) an animal or monster.
• Some folks on other websites have also noted that Rolf's diet includes far more seafood than normal for an inlander, suggesting that he lives near a coast.

It is reasonable to assume he lived along the north/west coast of Norway, or along the southern coast on either side of the border with Sweden. The article should be updated accordingly. Vanessaezekowitz (talk) 03:37, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Except that this is an encyclopedia, and we don't publish assumptions. -- Elaich ^talk 07:18, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Unless there is an explicit statement from Antonucci, this all falls into WP:OR and more so WP:SYNTH. Yngvarr (t) (c) 09:26, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Maybe he lived in Sicily? Maybe he lived next to a huge lake? Rolf's origins are from Eastern Europe, which is in a constant state of flux politically. Maybe that's why Danny chose that region for Rolf's origins.

Well, as we saw the flashbacks we see a landscape common to Nordic Europe or Switzerland. Or maybe he's from Iceland? The point is that he lived in a high-mountained area, which is common for Scandinavia and some central European areas

in one episode (i forget which) we see a photo of him in lederhosen (spl?) and in a setting that seems to resemble bavaria. i always though maybe it was germany. 69.233.4.123 (talk) 18:58, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

Words spelled wrong

No mention of how, despite Double-D's immense intelligence, words are always full of childish spelling mistakes (wrong letters, even letters being backwards) in the show. Groundlord (talk) 20:47, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Got a feeling Edd doesn't write the signs for the scams. treelo _radda 22:07, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Nazz has a last name

As revealed in the Big Picture Show, Naz does in fact have a last name, I just can't make it out. So if someone could try to sound it out they could add it. It sounds something like Van Vortenschmere. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.3.142.53 (talk) 07:00, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

It's Nazz Van Fartenschmere.

Erin Fitzgerald (Nazz's voice) and Raven Molisee (storyboarder from Boo Haw Haw to the Big Picture Show) have both confirmed that it's Van Fartenshmeer (or "schmere," all that's important is that it's meant to be a fart joke).

Series Finale?

Under Characters where it says "Eddy's Brother" it claims the movie is the series finale but Antonucci plans to make a sixth and a seventh season. Lasttiger (talk) 07:29, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

The series is over. Danny has closed down AKA and moved on to a new animated show. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.74.144.123 (talk) 04:38, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

Wilfred's Gender

In several episodes, as well as the film, it is shown that Wilfred is in fact a female pig, due to the presence of multiple breasts along Wilfred's underside. Ghengispan (talk) 12:11, 14 December 2009 (UTC)

Male animals have nipples just as male humans do. The real evidence that Wilfred is a female is that Rolf refers to him as a "sow" on multiple occassions. It's possible that that's just a misunderstanding of the term, though, because I know I didn't initially think "sow" was a gender-specific term. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.127.133.100 (talk) 08:34, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

Eddy's brother's name

For the last time: Eddy's brother's name is NOT Matthew. The show doesn't say his name and neither does some DVD. Believe me, I have both seasons and it's not in any of those interviews. Besides, if it had been in a DVD interview, it would have spread like wildfire across the fandom a long time ago. End of story. DasEnde (talk) 07:10, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

Rolf's animals

Do we really need a section on Rolf's animals? Can't we just describe them in one sentence on Rolf's section? Great Pikmin Fan (TD) (Talk) 19:58, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

Mondo a-Go-Go

Eddy's Bro is the owner of the amusement park. C'mon, he's the only at the park when the kids get there, and he apparently knows the schedule of the park. I'd also say, it fits who he is, a conman who tought Eddy all he knows.--71.74.144.123 (talk) 04:44, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

I'm sure someone who works there would know the schedule, whether they're the boss or not. And this is Ed, Edd n Eddy, of course they wouldn't show anyone else who works at the park, it's not like the kids were in charge of the school just because all the teachers and students weren't constantly visible to the audience. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.127.133.100 (talk) 08:32, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

main character

wouldnt ed be the main character instead of eddy. eds name is first in the series title and on the end credits and on the Wikipedia main page for ed edd n eddy matt hills name is first —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.205.115.157 (talk) 03:02, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

Ed's name most likely appears first because "Eddy, Ed n Edd" wouldn't sound right at all. Truth be told, the 3 Ed's in general share a main spot, but Eddy plays a leader role to the group, so would be considered a main character. 178.16.7.2 (talk) 20:06, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

Middle names

It was revealed in "Your Ed Here" (Season 4, episode 7a) that Eddy's middle name is "Skipper" and Double D's is "Marion" (the plot of this episode centred around Eddy being blackmailed by Kevin to keep his middle name secret). Now, I understand that "facts" presented once are not usually welcome in the article - however I was wondering if this was maybe considered an exception? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.16.7.2 (talk) 20:04, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
