What is the source of this name? - Cobold (talk · contribs) 16:43, 6 November 2007 (EST)

There is no source, and she certainly doesn't seem to be enough of a major character to have her own page. BTW, is there any actual evidence that she's female? - Kahran042 14:47, 8 March 2011 (EST)

Name?

Is this wiggler actually called Hootenanny? If so, we need a source. Zakor1138 (talk) 01:54, 8 May 2013 (EDT)

"Hootenanny" is the name of an event, but according to the comments above, there seems to be no source for her name (or her gender, apparently, but if it's really her name, I guess we can infer from "nanny" :P)

Rename

Wouldn't it better to rename the article to something like "Milk Shop owner"? After all, just because she says Hootenanny doesn't mean it's her name.
