My middle name is Jaye...I'm a cis woman, and even though it's technically an 'any/all genders' name, it's historically been more assumed to be a guy's name (usually without the silent 'e' at the end).
So when I need to supply my full name and I say 'First Name, Jaye, Last Name', I'm *inevitably* asked, "J what? Just the letter J? Do you not want to tell me your middle name?"
🙄🤦♀️
My guess is Abrocombe.
But what's Tom's full name? Tomas Jasper Cat? There were those old shorts where Tom was owned by a black woman who called him "Jasper" and not Tomas.
I like the idea, but Jerry’s original name was Jinx which has not been used, and I doubt they would do it for one of their names and not the other. However, Jasper is stated in the cartoon while Jinx is unnamed in the cartoon and simply used by the writing team, so it could still be done. Even if they are technically different characters, I would love to see this as a reference.

You think that is interest. In the looney tunes mobil game, this is the name they use for Wiley E Coyote
Different character. Wiley Coyote has a black nose and exclusively hunts the road runner. Ralph Wolf on the other hand has a red nose and talks.

Here's a clip with Ralph in it. He usually has episodes where he tries catching sheep or sometimes tries to eat bugs instead. But yeah he's a different character all together.
That is Ralph Wolf. He's the Coyote (or wolf, I guess?) who tries to steal the sheep, only to be stopped by Sam Sheepdog.
"Mornin' Ralph. Mornin' Sam"
I always thought it was the same guy as a kid, but you can only tell from the red nose.

A correction: seems I am an idiot because they do have Wiley, but it is still weird to put them as separate characters. I get they are, but it makes less sense since they have multiple costume versions normally. It is kind of like when they put Samus in her armor and zero suit in separate slots.
I have no idea honestly. I'm not entirely sure Jerry's race is known for sure. He's always just been referred to as a house mouse. I was under the impression that his name was actually Gerald Jinx Mouse, but this was from the 2021 Tom & Jerry movie. I just learned today that his name is Jerome A. Mouse 🤔
They may have just had Jerome as his name in the movie, most other sources say Gerald Jinx, as well.
Edit: Just looked it up, apparently Jerome isn't considered canon, neither is "Gerald 'Jerry' Mouse" (from one of the video games).
I haven't even seen Martin and all I can think when I see this is "Jerome's in the house, watch your mouth."

I googled it and apparently Jerry has 2 names. One is Jerome a Mouse and the other is Gerald Jinx Mouse. His name was originally jinx in his first appearance according to Hanna but Barbara (the creators) maintained he didn't have a name. Wikipedia gives his name as Gerald. So I think that's the official name and Jerome was a one off.
Tom was also name Jasper in his first appearance. His official name is Thomas Jasper Cat Sr.
Jerome Asshole Mouse
Came here to say this lol And I love Jerry!
Agreed
Jerome Agreed Mouse? Doesn't have that ring to it tho
Fuck I just said that
Boy, you beat me to it lol
r/beatmeattoit
Jerry Ass Mouse
For short
I was gonna say that
Beat me to it 👌
Dammit I was gonna say that
Beat me to it
Also agreed LMAO
Came here to make sure that was the first comment. Awesome job. 🫡
there really is no question 🤘🤘
i thought the same
Took the words right out of mouth.
i thought i was gonna have to scroll to find this answer this is what i thought too
Beat me to it
I’m so glad so many people here share a braincell that was my exact first thought
r/Beatmetoit
Maybe it’s just the letter A, since he would be “Jerome, a mouse.”
Hahaha that's actually very clever! I never even thought of that 😂
I was here for this.
![gif](giphy|8Iv5lqKwKsZ2g|downsized) The SOPHISTICATED answer….good show old sport
Thank you
My thoughts exactly
Like Ulysses S. Grant.
Or Eisenhower
D for David. I bet you are thinking of Truman.
Yea that one
He heard the humans shout that once, and from that point onward, he believed it to be his name
If I ever get a mouse as a pet, I will name him Jerome A. Mouse
Or maybe it's like Harry Truman, where the middle initial didn't stand for anything
That's exactly what it is lol
Probably takes a page from Homer J. Simpson and it's just "Ay."
A girl I was friends with in highschool had the middle name "J" not Jay, literally just the letter.
My dad has a J as his middle name too caused him a lot of pain dealing with military paperwork

Hard not to read that in their voice
Ralph Wolf? Look how they massacred ma boi! 😮💨 Well, his name, that is...
To be fair, this is probably a reference to [these parts.](https://youtu.be/ECa1toPGth4?si=KPiLME_J9rd42h9L)
Ahhh makes more sense
https://preview.redd.it/o2i0sae3wquc1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b950117f68561ef4cf0988db9731ced09378e7cc A correction: seems I am an idiot because they do have Wiley, but it is still weird to put them as separate characters.

It’s because unlike the other costumed characters these 2 are not alt personas of each other. They could both actually be in a room together.
That’s a different character.
Wily has a black nose. Ralph has a red nose
Wait Jerry's black?
Why would you assume he's black?
Never heard a white guy named Jerome
Well, in terms of white characters, Jerome Morrow from Gattaca.
Jerry Seinfelds name is Jerome.
Of course Jerry is brown coded, he has brown fur.
He's a mouse
I have no idea honestly. I'm not entirely sure Jerry's race is known for sure. He's always just been referred to as a house mouse.

Well, he does blackface, so I would assume not.
Annoying
Antichrist
So Jerry was black this whole time?
Maybe it’s Adrian.
Jerome Anthony Mouse
Jerome Alouicious Mouse
Adolf
Asshole
I thought his name was Gerald. Drat! Tom and Jerry Kids lied to me.
Attricks. Jerry attricks mouse.
I don't care if this isn't his actual middle name. It will now be his middle name for me from now on.
IS THAT JEROME FROM PIZZA TOWER
I thought his real name was Gerald Jinx Mouse.
Afton? Abraham? Just the letter A?
A.
Jerry is the mouse?!
His initials are JAM?
The “a” stands for a. Mouse
idk why I feel like it's Albert

That guy is a rat, so fitting

Abraham
Asrdvark.
A Because he's Jerome, a mouse
Aubrey
I’ve seen other comments, but just A. Jerome, A Mouse…
Amous
Can he do the Jerry voice like Candi Milo?
Alfred
JEROME ADOLF MOUSE
Idk, but stewie's full name is Stewart Gilligan Griffin
This has the energy as Donald Fauntleroy Duck
I wonder how many people you could make upset by calling the cartoon "Thomas and Jerome"
Andrew
Abernathy
He looks like an Alexander middle name kinda guy
angstrom
I googled it and apparently Jerry has 2 names. One is Jerome a Mouse and the other is Gerald Jinx Mouse. His name was originally jinx in his first appearance according to Hanna but Barbara (the creators) maintained he didn't have a name. Wikipedia gives his name as Gerald. So I think that's the official name and Jerome was a one off. Tom was also name Jasper in his first appearance. His official name is Thomas Jasper Cat Sr.
Albert?
“Jerome Aggy Ass Mouse” I believe is what on the birth certificate
Archibald
Adventure is his middle name.
Asshole
jerome adam mouse
Anton
Jerome Analfistinglegendjohnnyshitknuckles Mouse
Multiversus says its Gerald Jinx Mouse. WHICH IS IT?
Asshole. Because he is.
Asshat
Archibald
Anthony
Who cares? It’s not canon
It's interesting to wonder though
Alfred
It's A.pun
It's a. It's a joke based on the reoccurring homeowner character being black. The name is "Ahhh, Jerome a mouse." The more you know right?
Jerome Aye Mouse
Andres.
Idk why but Anthony suits him
Anthony or al
*INHALE THROUGH THE NOSE* Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..... Arguile
It's gotta be Alphonse, right?
Jerome Antics Mouse
Adam
What do you mean? He's "A" mouse. Jerry A Mouse.
I didn't realize it was an intended pun on the creator's part. I legitimately thought the A stood for something 😂
Jerome Alfred Mouse
If it's not something William Hanna and Joe Barbara came up with between 1940 and 1958 it's not canon.
Anderson.
