Is it just me, or was Milhouse based in part on Paul Pfeiffer (played by Josh Saviano) from the Wonder Years?

One unspecified user listed several of his allergens as "dairy" and "non-dairy." This would make him allergic to every substance known to man, and thus killing off the character (unless he dies of an allergic reaction). --Chapas45 9 December 2006 07:34 (UTC)

Maybe it means soya (which he drinks without problems in at least one episode)--MartinUK (talk) 21:48, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Given Matt Groening's tendency to name characters after streets in his hometown (Lovejoy, Flanders), more emphasis should be placed on Milhouse's last name as a street rather than the Charles Manson follower. ~~

Isn't Milhouse actually a boy? *cry* :) 158.64.137.141 21:16, 3 December 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Is it true that Milhouse's first name was derived from Richard Milhous Nixon's middle name? I could swear that I remember that being said during one of the commentaries from The Simpsons Fourth Season. DinoDan926 00:22, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I can look it up for you if you want, I have the fourth season on DVD. IncrediVi —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.176.247.138 (talk) 16:35, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unless I'm mistaken, we only definitively know that Milhouse is Dutch, right? His grandmother living in Italy does not guarantee that he is Italian, and his receiving a gift for a Greek Orthodox holiday is even less convincing; only ethnic Greeks can be Greek Orthodox? I'd propose removing references to his being Italian and Greek as speculation. Thoughts? faithless (^speak) 05:12, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm archiving this discussion to discourage people from adding nonconstructive comments. "Milhouse isn't a meme/Milhouse isn't a meme is a meme" is a 4chan meme. That's all there is to it. There's no way to stop the /b/tards from making these edits, all one can do is revert and ignore. faithless (^speak) 21:44, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

..........eeerrr how do we know that he's really called that, I don't think any should be called that, I'm sure you know why King food (talk) 20:34, 30 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, that's kind of the joke. There is an episode where Lisa needs to learn Italian - it turns out that Milhouse is fluent in Italian from spending summers in Italy with his grandmother. During a flashback, she scolds him for speaking in English, calling him Milhouse Mussolini Van Houten and 'Idiota' and chases him with an olive branch. faithless (^speak) 02:53, 31 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've seen that episode but I don't remember him being called that King food (talk) 09:41, 31 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well...watch it again. :-) faithless (^speak) 09:47, 31 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
