Hey, quick question that's been bugging me for some time now?

What is Trapper's wife's name? When do they mention it?
imdb.com has Louise and Melanie listed (signifying her name was changed). All fanfics I've seen that mention it have Louise. On "Trapper John, MD" her name was Melanie.

Oh, and same question goes for his daughters.

Thanks!

I always remember his wife's name as Lousie, never Melanie.

Now, Col. Blake's wife's name was at first Mildred and then Lorraine. And he went from four kids, to five kids, and then back to four kids... Or something like that.

According to Best Care his girls names are Becky and Kathy.

On M*A*S*H, his wife's name was always Louise. And yes, his kids were names C(K)athy and Becky.

Col. Potter's wife originally had the name Louise, but that was changed to Mildred. Maybe that's where Melanie came from?

Louise was his wife's name.

Becky and Kathy/Cathy were his daughter's names. :)

I thought Frank's wife was Louise.

But now that I think about it, I do recall Trapper calling his wife Louise at least once, which struck me as odd, because I always associated that name with Frank's wife. Trapper writes a letter to his wife in the ep "Kim", and that may be where he mentions Louise.

I do remember one of his daughters was named Becky.
