It took months, but we finally get a name. Both Linus and Lucile begin with L, but the next Van Pelt will be Rerun in 1972.

That also might be the first appearance of his security blanket, but he’s sitting on it rather than holding it to his ear

My parents did the same thing. Both my name and my sister’s begin with the same letter.

I know a family whose kids’ names all begin with the same letters; Shane, Shauna, Sheldon, Shelby.

Yeah, but ReRun is truly a nickname as Lucy tells as he was no more than another Linus, or to put it more accurately, another brother and thus a re-run of the first brother (Linus). Lucy was so sure she would have a sister, but no, just a re-run of what she already had. Sigh…
