we called it Alex the Kid for so long that by the time we found out that it wasn't, it was too late to say it differently.

and how was i to know? The game was built into my Sega MasterSystem II, so it's not like I had a case to look at or a blurb to read or anything.

to drop the tiger - colloquial, meaning, to achieve sufficient familiarity, notoriety, &c. so as to stop needing full names. cf. "jumping the shark"

The abbreviation GWTW takes about 1/4 the time to write as Gone with the Wind, but twice as long to pronounce.
