The Marx Cousins (A Nonsense ABC)
AARPo,
Biko,
Croucho,
Drummo,
E-e-e-eek!o (christened Echo),
Freako…
Geeko,
Hyde-‘N’-Sikho,
I'mUniqu'o,
J'maicanRummo,
Keeko…
Leeko,
Mozambiq'o,
Numbo,
Ouch!o,
Poucho,
Quixotico…
Reeko,
Sharpo,
TwylaTharpo,
Uomo, Jr.,
V.I.P-po...
(Wait!
Where's Whippo?
Where's
Xanthippo? Here! So's
Yummo -- yes! -- and
Zeeko!*
(Not to mention
siblings Groucho,
Harpo, Gummo,
Zeppo, Chico.)
* 'Zicko' is routinely substituted
for 'Zeeko' here, anticipating a matching
"short-i" pronunciation of the final 'Chico' --
one heard, and apparently preferred,
in many quarters.
