Did you know that Minnie Mouse was first introduced as "Minerva Mouse", and later nicknamed as "Minnie Mouse".

This is so funny! I named my dog Minnie, and my mom calls her Minerva (McGonagall) and I call her Minnie mouse! Who knew they were actually both Minervas :) - SteamboatMinnie 310.1 #577 11:06AM

Cool trivia 👍 - JessicaRabbit33 667.9 #163 8:40AM

I like her nickname better 😁 - MozPrincess 577.4 #195 8:45AM

Right? Can you imagine Minerva Mouse merchandise everywhere? 😝 - LBChica 1560.6 #52 8:48AM

I'd start expecting her to have a bun, waving a wand around, trying to transfigure everything into cheese and polka dots. - cesium55 531.2 #220 9:12AM

Oh the Minerva - Butterlina 1313.6 #63 9:14AM

I like this fact! - lesley.belle. 262.4 #912 9:18AM

I feel like I've caught Minerva. - DisneyFanZoe 1099.6 #74 9:22AM

That cracks me up. Mickey & Minerva just doesn't have the same ring to it. - VeloMouseGirl 549.7 #210 9:25AM

I didn't know this until yesterday! - Mrs.mouse 426.0 #305 11:02AM
