原The original title of the "Where's Waldo" books is "Where's Wally." For some inexplicable reason, the name was changed to "Waldo" for the U.S. and Canadian editions. (Why? The nickname "Wally" is used in the U.S., at least. I would be very surprised if the same was not true in Canada.)
原Ralph Waldo Emerson, essayist, philosopher, and pivotal member of the transcendentalist movement. Middle name of Ralph Ellison, author of "Invisible Man." Yes, his name was Ralph Waldo Ellison.
原Waldo is the main character of the short story "the Gift" by Lou Reed, which was put to music and read by John Cale in a song by the same title. Waldo is worrying that his long distance girlfriend, Marsha, is cheating on him, so he mails himself to her. Things do not end well for Waldo.
原On reading this name, the following scene popped into my head:Frantic mother rushes through grocery store. She finally gets to someone who can use the intercom and shouts, "Where's Waldo? Where's Waldo?" The employee can't help her because he just doubled over, laughing hysterically. Suddenly, a small boy crawls over. "Hi, Mama!"I'm not saying that this would ever happen; however, it's something Waldos would have to deal with.

译“沃尔多的书”的原始标题是“Wally在哪里”。由于某些莫名的原因,美国和加拿大版本的名称更改为“Waldo”。 (为什么?至少在美国使用昵称“Wally”,如果在加拿大不是这样,我会很惊讶。)
