The X-Files | Mulder and Scully calling each other Fox and Dana

[@tictoc134]

Scully only ever called him Fox twice in all that time

[@Spikeslady7]

Because he didn’t like his first name.

[@rachg82]

@@Spikeslady7 I disagree, actually. In part, anyway. Not necessarily that he dislikes his first name, but that it was the main reason for telling Scully not to use it. When his exes show back up, he never so much as makes a face when they call him Fox. Even Diana calls him Fox, and she's a fellow agent just like Scully. So I personally think it was an attempt to keep her at a certain distance early on. I like to think he knew already there was some potential there, and he probably didn't want a repeat of however things ended with Diana. Anyway, sorry for the long answer, lol.

He loved saying her name.

My parents named me after Dana Scully. I really loved this video.

[@danagricken4197]

My parents also named me Dana because of her! ❤😂

[@danacarruthers7586]

Me three lol

[@ProkofNY]

Congrats all three for your wonderful namesake! Do you appreciate your parents’ decision to name you after her?

[@danahugel]

SAME! they were gonna give me the middle name catherine too (for other reasons as well) but didn't in the end.

[@chathuperera906]

wooooooooow

[@maggierolseth2375]

There was a kid named fox at my elementary school. I don’t remember him but my mom met his mom once during Field Day and asked if it was bc of this show and she confirmed that it was.

[@knsnsy]

the fact that he called him dana several times in beyond the sea shows the depth of that episode. masterpiece of an episode

[@dominicansoul1]

“I love this job”=“I love working with you Mulder”=“I love you,Mulder” 😅

[@mcjs8640]

I have watched ALL The X-Files many times, but I never realised that Mulder used Scully's first name so many times. It was especially noticeable in, 'Beyond the Sea.' Great video!

[@knsnsy]

Beyond the Sea was the first Scully centric ep. a very good one at that

[@JohnJones-nq6pi]

Mulder and Scully are ment to be together forever.

[@sarahkeirans2752]

You know that phenomena where if you say a word a bunch of times, it starts to sound strange? I'm having that with the name "Dana" while watching this video. lol

[@faithgaudi6191]

You missed Scully calling him, “You, Fox Mulder…” in Signs and Wonders.

[@martinaskupin9549]

Their chemistry is out of any limits. It´s historical.

[@basementintruder]

Woah I always knew he did it more than her but to this extent? I think he loves saying her name! I've just noticed how he calls her Dana in the Truth. Maybe his way of telling her something was up. Nice video!

[@BigFanOfManyThings]

It seems so weird sometime when the situation calls for intimacy, yet scully still only uses mulder’s surname because he prefers it to fox, it’s become like his first name haha

[@Fleyk1707]

He hates his first name, so he made everyone call him Mulder.

For a long time I've been wanting to do a super cut of every single time Scully said "Mulder", just Mulder after Mulder after Mulder after Mulder but I don't have the time nor the energy to do it, thank you for these compilations that you are doing.

[@notaspeck6104]

We’d be here for a lifetime 😂

[@kaishaman7144]

I know that not all parts of this show aged equally well, but I loved it as a kid. I recently watched the screen adaptation of Good Omens, and the depth and strength of the relationship between the two main characters really reminded me of Mulder and Scully. So, I'm here, watching X-Files edits and remembering. Thank you for creating the video!

[@maggierolseth2375]

YOU GUYS I HAVE AN UPDATE: okay peep my comment down below about this kid named fox who was a bit younger than me so I didn’t know him but I thought we went to like elementary school together . Turns out I was wrong. He was in the same local soccer league but a few years younger. *Anyways* so when I was asking my mom about this bc I couldn’t really remember the situation she goes “Oh, we’ll you know he had an older sister that was your same year… HER NAME WAS DANA”. *Yes* . I can confirm that there was a brother/sister duo in my local community named Fox & Dana. Cheers to them, hope they’re thriving. What a wild ride.

[@ianbrewer4843]

Great show

[@supremeoverlorde2109]

I'm surprised that in the new series, he didn't call her "Dana" more often once they started getting close again. He used her first name quite a bit in the original show during soft or intimate moments. On the other hand, Scully hardly ever called him "Fox," apart from the one time in the revival and the first time she ever tried and he told her not to. Earlier on I always took it as a sign of her respecting his wishes, but later on I have to wonder if maybe calling him "Fox" just didn't feel right, lol.

[@dianewilliams1125]

One of the best tv name evet! Fox Mulder!❤❤❤

I love how she gets jealous of him and ither chicks but yet would shoot him if he tried anything.

Mulher says that even his parents call him Mulder but I remember his mother saying Fox all the time lol

[@bobojenkins5805]

it was a joke

[@amirkhalid5449]

It's a minor quibble, but I don't think Mulder reading Scully's full name from a document, e.g. her vaccination record or her senior thesis, should count the same as him actually calling her Dana.

[@audreyl9679]

Great! 👍
