Name Repetition

I know I’ve been sticking to fashion mostly, but since the thought crossed my mind, I thought I’d make a “discussion” post today! The topic is name repetition in the Degrassi universe!

We all know there have been two Mayas AND a Mia throughout Degrassi… But I noticed something I found funny within DJH.

Christine Nelson….

and

Mike Nelson….

These two completely unrelated characters have the same last name! Why? Was it intentional? The writers could have easily made Mike named Mike Smith or something else.

And what’s more, SPIKE NELSON and MIKE NELSON rhyme!

What do you think? Anyone else know of any other name repetitions or oddities with the Degrassi universe? I have more I’ll post about later.

You guys, this t-shirt has some sort of scraggly cartoon cat on the front. I’m not sure if it has any significance. But we will be seeing it again.

Shane is all red today. Starting from the bottom (heh…) He got them white tennies, though. I am so inspired by this show that I recently bought my own white tennies. I can’t remember what these red pants are made of – they might be more track pants, or some of those swishy-pants. Well, regardless – they’re RED PANTS! I don’t see any guys wearing red pants these days. He completes the look with an orange and red plaid shirt, and his brown bomber jacket that we will see more of later.

Hello, some random dude. Now I don’t cap every random person I see – I only do if their outfit is noteworthy. I think this horribly 80s sweater definitely fits my requirements. It looks like something an 80s psychiatrist would wear. I guess I’m getting that impression from Neil on The Santa Clause…. anyone?!

Daniel Raditch looks like a real 80s urban professional. Down south we never see people wear scarves with their suits.

Sorry folks, this outfit isn’t the most exciting. But is exciting to see Nancy! So here you go. Some kind of boring t-shirt with what looks like a man’s overshirt. Overall has a very relaxed mood.

Just chillin in the sheep sweater. Pleasing audiences everywhere.

Students.. of Degrassi Junior High… please.. fix your collars! I wish I could reach into this picture and straighten it out. I’m trying to be understanding, because I know it was the style. But it kinda makes everyone look like they just woke up from a nap.

Anyway, Melanie has her red/tie scheme going today. She’s also experimented with something new – the TRIPLE PONYTAIL!!!! Obviously Alex is awestruck.

These girls wear panyhose under their peasant skirts? That kinda takes away the comfort of wearing the skirt in the first place, doesn’t it? Oh well, it’s Canada, I know it’s cold. Melanie looks really cute in this purple and navy color scheme. A nice break from her harsh reds.

Lucy time! Either this grey Aztec-y sweater is very popular, or it has changed hands. We’ve also seen Stephanie wearing this. It looks really with Lucy’s white tights and white tennies.
