Daibhid C: I'm starting to wonder if I'm completely misunderstanding the trope, but as far as I can see it's very simple: When Frank Grimes Jr. and Quarrel Jr. were born, Frank Grimes Sr., and Quarrel Sr. were still alive. (This can be easily deduced by the fact we saw the elder characters die, and the younger ones are adult not long afterwards). Therefore they weren't named after dead people.

Making them non-examples of this trope.

Exactly. Now we've agreed on that, I've removed them again.

Does anyone else think the page image should be changed? I know it fits the trope really well, but it's also a pretty big spoiler for one of the best episodes of Futurama.
