"It is during the course of the last episode the viewer learns how Beaver got his nickname. " Could someone please finish this paragraph with the reason? Throckmorton Guildersleeve ( talk) 13:57, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
Did they ever reveal Theodore's middle name? I used to be pretty sure that it was "Roosevelt," which makes some sense, though I've never been able to confirm it by watchying random shows. WHPratt ( talk) 03:39, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
In a Season One episode, it is stated that the nickname came about because, as a small child, big brother Wally couldn't pronounce "Theodore," and it came out "Beaver."

Were the producers aware that the name "Beaver Cleaver" sounds very dirty, and chose the name as an intentional double entendre (similar to Hooterville)? Or was it just an unfortunate coincidence? Stonemason89 ( talk) 23:09, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
The result of the proposal was move to Beaver Cleaver
per discussion as a common form of the name and in conformity with
WP:STAGENAME, applicable by analogy.--

Theodore Cleaver → ? – Before commenting, I must remind you not to use WP:Naming conventions (people) because it does not apply to fictional characters. In the show and non-primary sources, this character from Leave It to Beaver is always called "Beaver". Therefore, "Beaver" must be part of the title. Should the name be Beaver Cleaver or Theodore "Beaver" Cleaver? George Ho ( talk) 05:30, 25 December 2013 (UTC)
The list should include Richard Rickover, who was Beavers best friend for the last two or three seasons, replacing Larry Mondello when Rusty Stevens left the show. Especially considering Gilbert is listed, and while they were friends, they started out as enemies. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.180.92.37 ( talk) 10:59, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
