Bloom County is an American comic strip by Berkeley Breathed which originally ran from December 8, 1980, until August 6, 1989. It examined events in politics and culture through the viewpoint of a fanciful small town in Middle America, where children often have adult personalities and vocabularies and where animals can talk.

Anyone know why the name changed?

What if one is just a middle name? That is, both are correct.

I speculated a few weeks back that it may have simply been a matter of Berkeley forgetting, or hoping others would forget.

I have looked on the internet and not found an answer. I will keep digging though.

The first time I noted the difference in names

And again the next day
