How did the names change from the gocomics version to the top version here?
Jack, good catch. The GoComics version was my first version of the joke. But then I decided to change the names so that on my website I could use the title “She’s a Rose by any other Name.”
Of course, I then forgot to change the names on the GoComics version. I suppose it’s a bit ironic given the nature of the gag.
