| The following are ]s from the ]. They are all relatives of ] and ]. | |||
| {{R to section}} | |||
| ==Morty and Ferdie Fieldmouse== | |||
| ] | |||
| '''Morty''' and '''Ferdie Fieldmouse''' are Mickey Mouse's nephews. They first appeared in ]'s Mickey Mouse Sunday ] continuity titled ''Mickey's Nephews'' (1932). Since then they have appeared in lots of comic strips and comic book stories starring Mickey Mouse and ]. | |||
| In pre-World War II Mickey children's books (not comics) produced by the Disney studio, the nephews were usually called Morty and Monty rather than Morty and Ferdie. Very early books contain three or more nephews with various names, including Maisie and Marmaduke. Morty's name, short for Mortimer, is possibly in reference to the originally planned name for Mickey, ] and Ferdie (sometimes misspelled "Ferdy") is short for "Ferdinand." | |||
| The twins' first film appearance was the 1934 Mickey Mouse cartoon titled ''Mickey's Steamroller''. Aside from a cameo in 1938's '']'', they didn't appear in animation again until '']'' (1983). Then they made a cameo appearance in a two part '']'' segment titled ''Around the World in Eighty Days'', which was later reused for an episode of '']''. | |||
| Ferdie disappeared from the ''Mickey Mouse'' comic strip in 1943 because Gottfredson thought the nephews were too much alike. He had plans to bring Ferdie back later as a bespectacled, intellectual, bookworm mouse with an Eton hat and coat with the explanation that he had been away at school. However, Gottfredson never got around to bringing Ferdie back and Morty remained in the strip alone. Morty was occasionally depicted with his best friend named Alvin and a sweetheart named Millie. Both were anthropomorphic dogs. Ferdie never vanished from comic book stories, however. In recent years, some of Morty and Ferdie's comic book appearances have portrayed them as ] players on the team Riverside Rovers. Their mother is depicted as a supportive "Soccer Mom." Morty & Ferdie are also occasionally pitted against their antagonists ], ]'s niece and ]'s twin hellion nephews, Pierino & Pieretto. Morty should not be confused with Micky Mouse's originally proposed name "Mortimer Mouse," or Mickey's ofttimes rival of the same name ], or Minnie's wealthy rancher Uncle Mortimer. Morty is a playable character on the ] game '']''. | |||
| ==Amelia Fieldmouse== | |||
| '''Amelia Fieldmouse''' is Mickey Mouse's sister and the mother of Morty and Ferdie Fieldmouse. | |||
| The character first appeared in Morty and Ferdie's 1932 comics debut. In the English version of these comic strips, she is referred to only as "Mrs. Fieldmouse." In the Dutch translation of the strips, her name is given as Amalia. In various English language references, this is typically Anglicized to Amelia Fieldmouse. The original strips do not make clear that Amelia is Mickey's sister; as drawn, she looks more like a maiden aunt. But the relationship has been clarified when she reappeared in more recent comics. | |||
| At ], Amelia's name is given as "'''Felicity Fieldmouse'''". As a side note, Egmont also named Felicity's husband—the twins' father—Frank, though he has yet to be specifically named or depicted in a published comic. Egmont's modern version of Amelia has slimmed down and is designed to look closer to Mickey in age, while remaining significantly taller than him. | |||
| ==Madeline Mouse== | |||
| Mickey's yellow city cousin who appeared in "Love Trouble", a strip from April 14 to July 5, 1941. | |||
| ==Millie and Melody Mouse== | |||
| '''Melinda''' and '''Melody Mouse''' are Minnie Mouse's nieces. Minnie has had an inconsistent list of nieces. In ] and ], most often a single niece is depicted, even consistently named ''Melodia'' (Melody). She is a Disney Studio creation by ] in the mid-sixties whose primary "task" seems to be to drive ] crazy. | |||
| However, in at least one other ] or ]ian tale Minnie did have another niece named Zizi (whether this was the name of Melody's twin or just another name for Melody is unknown). However, in ], Minnie has had a couple sets of twin nieces as portrayed by ], named both Melody & Melinda and Pammy & Tammy (these could very easily be the same twins, but Paul Murry and his writer forgot they had already named them in a previous tale). There is also one more set of twin nieces who appear on occasion named Lily & Tiny, though these two are distinctly much older than Melody (and Melinda), often used as teenage foils for Minnie. These teenage nieces have yet to appear in comics printed in the USA. | |||
| It is reported that another name is attributed in American comics giving Minnie's single niece the name of Molly. Another set of nieces appear in an early ] book from the 1940s as triplets calling themselves "Dolly, Polly & Molly," while a lone niece attributed to Mickey appears in the cartoon "]" (1934) named "Maisie" (listed in "Mickey Mouse: His Life and Times" (1986 - Harper & Row). | |||
| The only known possible film appearance of any niece is in 1983's "]," where Mickey Mouse, as ], has a daughter. In this film Morty & Ferdie are said to have played Cratchit's two sons (including one as ]), and since Melody seems to be the most consistent name used for any niece attributed to Minnie, it is quite probably that it was Melody who played the role of Bob Crachit's daughter. | |||
| However, in USA comics the naming is not nearly consistent enough to form a concrete character profile. The only fact that is really stable is that Minnie definitely has twin nieces. | |||
| Perhaps the first actual appearance of either Melody or any other niece of Minnie's is from "]" #87 where a much younger niece appears. | |||
| ]'s family and friends | |||
| Minnie Mouse has a variety of neices. They are all appearing on and off, presumably ] the most. Their names are: | |||
| Melinda Mouse (aka Millie) | |||
| Melodia Mouse (aka Melody) | |||
| ] Mouse (a ]ian or Italian name for one of ]'s nieces) | |||
| Pammy Mouse (twin to Tammy) | |||
| Tammy Mouse (twin to Pammy) | |||
| Lily Mouse (twin to Tiny) | |||
| Tiny Mouse (twin to Lily) | |||
| Minnie also has a sister called ]. She is a naughty mischeivous lady. | |||
| Minnie's father is called Marcus Mouse, whose first appearance - and final - was in the old episode ''Mr. Slicker and the Egg Robbers''. Her grandfather is called Marshall Mouse. | |||
| ==Marcus Mouse== | |||
| '''Marcus Mouse''' is the son of Marshall Mouse and father of Minnie Mouse. He first appeared as a ] in a story titled ''Mr. Slicker and the Egg Robbers'' first published between September 22 and December 26, 1930. He only appeared in that story, and is one of the more obscure ] characters. | |||
| ==Marshall Mouse== | |||
| '''Marshall Mouse''' is first mentioned in the Mickey Mouse comic strip titled 'Mr. Slicker and the Egg Robbers' (published September 22 - December 26, 1930). Not much is known about him except that he has a wife named Matilda, he is father to ] and paternal grandfather to Minnie Mouse. | |||
