Alphabet O'Malley is the nickname of an Anything Muppet boy in a season two Sesame Street sketch. (First: Episode 0135)
Another boy named Tom Smith encounters Alphabet and wishes to call him by his real name. Alphabet complies: his full name is Arnold Byron Charles David Edward Frederick George Harold Ivan Jerome Kile Lester Melvin Nestor Obidiah Percy Quincy Rasputin Stanislaus Thomas Ulster Virgil Wildamere Xavier Yancy Zebediah O'Malley.
Tom doesn't think he can remember such a long name, so Alphabet instead proposes calling him by his initials - ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ O'Malley. Tom decides to simply call him "Alphabet."
