cannot remember... why was he named 'Blue Boy'?
I know his real name had "Blue" in it - there there was a story behind it but cannot remember
shareHis real name was William. Nicknamed Billy by his mother from William, his Grandfather per naming conventions during that time. And Blue, named by and from his father's Blue Tick hound dog.
John and Victoria Cannon called him Blue, while Buck called him Blue Boy.
In one scene, Blue tells his father that he is no longer his hound dog anymore. Also hated being perceived or being called a Boy except by Uncle Buck.
