What's Cap'n Crunch's full name?

What’s Cap’n Crunch’s full name? His full name is Horatio Magellan Crunch.

Cap’n Crunch is the cartoon mascot of the breakfast-cereal brand introduced by Quaker Oats in 1963. The character is portrayed as a cheerful naval captain with a white moustache, prominent eyebrows, a blue uniform and a distinctive bicorne hat marked with a large C.

In the character’s fictional backstory, Horatio Magellan Crunch commands the ship Guppy and comes from Crunch Island, a fantastical place in the Sea of Milk. His crew includes sailor children such as Alfie, Dave, Brunhilde and Carlyle, along with his canine first mate, Seadog. The cereal’s advertising often depicts them protecting the product from Jean LaFoote, the Barefoot Pirate.

A common mix-up is treating “Cap’n Crunch” as the cereal’s ordinary product name only. It is also the mascot’s name, while Horatio Magellan Crunch is the character’s fuller identity. The shortened “Cap’n” spelling is part of the brand’s stylized presentation.
