Surprised you didn't mention Funtime Foxy, Scott naming 2 similar characters the exact same name and the fanbase unanimously agreed that was stupid and refused to call the FNaF 2 one that. Originally called Toy Foxy or New Foxy in the FNaF 2 game files, the name for Mangle before being Mangle was usually assumed to be Toy Foxy, some people would also just call them Pre-Mangle or Fixed Mangle, then FNaF World came out and officially named them Funtime Foxy right before SL called another character by that name. Officially some merch still calls them Funtime Foxy iirc.

[@TheREALManBehindTheSlaughter]

…who else didn’t read that-

[@kotori6938]

I thought they were the same character and Scott just had Funtime Foxy in FNAF World as a "teaser" of a new character in Sister Location. Especially because that game also references Baby directly in the Clock ending

[@toastedperfection2488]

@@kotori6938 You can tell FNaF World's is FNaF 2 and not SL because of a few design traits. 1) SL Funtime Foxy is entirely white and pink with yellow eyes. FNaF 2 also adds red to the colour palette with the lipstick, bow tie, and cheeks. FNaF World matches the latter. Also noteworthy that SL Funtime Foxy has a speaker instead of a bowtie and FNaF World has the bow tie. 2) SL Funtime Foxy has a speaker and the typical Funtime plates as notably design traits which World Funtime Foxy lacks. 3) The real giveaway. In the FNaF 2 teasers it's shown Mangle before being Mangled had a hook hand. SL Funtime Foxy doesn't have a hook hand. FNaF World's does. So yeah FNaF World is definitely Mangle Pre-Mangled and not SL's Funtime Foxy. ALTHOUGH it kinda is still a SL teaser as FNaF 2's game files actually does call Mangle Toy Foxy (as well as New Foxy depending on where in the files). So although it is Pre-Mangle, I'd still say the name being the same as Funtime Foxy (SL) is intentional and probably has a lore reason.

[@TheREALManBehindTheSlaughter]

@@kotori6938 how does it mention baby? The clock ending is relevant to the crying child finally being put to rest.

Heh, even then, the Classics' names were just placeholders. And yet, the Adventure Withereds seem based after the Classics, including the incorrect buttons. Was she called Balloon Girl in the Freddy Files? As i think this whole Miketrap thing spawned after SL'S custom, I imagine this being the 'misconception in the September 2017 post, which led to Scraptrap just being William. But to have *that* be William's page for the Encyclopedia? Super glad 'Scraptrap' slipped in on a cabinet. I believe Rockstar Foxy's parrot often got referred to as Pickles, he's green and the jar for happiness. I think 'Moondrop' also seeped into a book...

Something that a lot of people don't know about Markipliers FNAF series is that he changed the name of Episode 2 a day or two after it came out.

[@kalkuttadrop6371]

I do wonder why Purple Man ultimately lost out to Purple Guy. During the FNAF 2 era it was the most popular name(Matpat's FNAF 2 theory calls him Purple Man), and as you showed at 6:19 'man' was in the games code. This is especially since the second most popular name for him during the FNAF 2 era was "The Golden Freddy Killer", with the MCI often being called "The Golden Freddy Murders", both Matpat and Grumpybear did this. This was because people had made the incorrect assumption that that was the suit used, when it was Springbonnie. (This debate got pretty nasty in the FNAF 3 era despite all the evidence pointing to Springbonnie at that point). And due in part to internia and the Purple Man and Purple Guy options nobody ever felt like going with "The Springbonnie Killer" and "The Springbonnie Murders", by the time the GF crowd gave up it was way too late to change the name again. So I get that. I also know that the color coded options were popular because of Pink Guy theory being a big deal in the 2 and 3 era. So specifying you meant Purple Guy/Purple Man was helpful in case the other guy believed in Pink Man / Pink Guy theory. That's also probably why simply calling him "The Killer" or "The Murderer" like was done in the FNAF 1 era died out. A lot of those people were the ones using the Golden Freddy based names and those died out due to being wrong and them fighting it too long to pivot to "The Springbonnie Killer" or something. And if people were two killer believers just saying "The Killer" was useless. So I can explain every other alternative dying out. But I have zero clue why Purple Guy overtook Purple Man around the time of FNAF 3. Zero clue. EDIT: I checked a couple of Google Trends and KZbin Trends sources. Purple Man showed up on Day 1 when the demo came out, Purple Guy was first used on the 15th of November. Purple Man was solidly and fully ahead until the last week of December, around 19-23 depending on the source, when Purple Guy overtook it daily for the first time. After this both would stay relatively neck and neck, Purple Man sometimes ahead, Purple Guy sometimes ahead, but within range of eachother. When FNAF 3 came out both names got a big spike, but Purple Guy took the lead immediately, albeit Purple Man took it back once or twice in March and April tied to uploads by creators using Purple Man(8-Bit specifically). Matpat's FNAF 3 theory using Purple Guy was seemingly the nail in the coffin as after that Purple Guy surged ahead and Purple Man rapidly declined into near non-existence by the time 4 came out.

[@Roycorrs]

One note, the official character encyclopedia refers to William as Purple Man.
