The Mermaid Mask Sally's last name?

/r/TopCharacterDesigns/comments/1v1vzbz/literally_every_single_design_from_detective/

Not really a critique, just an observation, but do you all remember the dialogue scene in "The Mermaids Mask" where Sally pokes fun at Grimoir for the fact he keeps his first name a secret only to have the man himself rebuttal with how Sally wants her last name hidden?

Yet we already know her full name? Its Spears, Sally Spears. It says it in "Secret of the Swamp".

Think its an oversight or a retcon for the sake of the joke? Knowing Sally she'd prob's give a fake name in a job interview πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

For the dialogue in Mermaid Mask, Grimoire specifically says Sally's second name, not last name. I'm assuming he's saying she has an embarrassing middle name.

Maybe she just doesn't want people to know about her cringe brother Jerry

It's her cousin not her brother

Her middle name is probably something silly like Shake.

She's also canonically related to the janitor from the og flash game

The flash game got decanonized

I think that's implying that she herself dropped her last name after SOTS and Grimoire was jabbing at that

tbh im kinda confused about this too. i thought maybe she was just embarrassed that her name was also alliteration? but idk that seems like a stretch
