   In Mexico and Latin America Olive Oyl is "Oliva Olivo". And yeah, sometimes is Olivia.

   Puta means slut, so that was a "witty" joke.

   Speaking of Popeye, the original newspaper comic strips by E.C.Segar are being reprinted again. Highly recommended.

   I'm pretty sure everyone is just confused because Popeye actually has many women in many different ports.
