Wow, never been 1st to comment, cool POOPEYE???really a name, what where his parents thinking. I was thinking you could pronounce some of them POPEYE in different languages..... Oh well, wrong, but I tried
I guessed Pap, but for another reason. Not being up-to-date on my Popeye trivia, I guess pap because the other four prefixes can be a standalone word.
good one! thanks for the cartoon trivia
good one! thanks for the cartoon trivia
Cartoon trivia indeed, as i had no idea. Still fun though, this used to be my favorite cartoon as a kid. Keep them coming.
Nephews??? Popeye has nephews? Sometimes it's scary what other people know. Sometimes it's fun.

I got this pretty quick, but then again, I went into the Navy right after high school and my friends nicknamed me Popeye...so I had to get to know him!
didnt get this one pooh hooh! igues iam not a poeye fan.
A little disturbing how i guesses this one. Let's just say it had some poteye humor.
I should have known ...
I got it wrong.
Althouth I got it right, I got it wrong because it was for the wrong reason that I got it right so I basically got it wrong.
Dang when was the last time I watched Popeye?
Too funny.... Absolutely hilarious!! Thanks and Bravo!
good one.
got the wrong answer though..
got the wrong answer though..
. I'M GLAD I ATE ME SPINACH! WITHOUT IT I WOULDN'T HAVE GOT THIS ONE. CUTE. THANX AXTON.YUK YUK YUK YUK !!
I got it right! Except I got it for the wrong reason though; I didn't realise they were the names of Popeeye's nephews.
Totally clueless on this one. Superb trivia.
i got it correct! but.. i tot dat the others form 2 words coz pap in the papeye is not in my vocabulary.. oowp ..
Had no clue!! Added help knew righ of the bat!! Damn the luck I guess somepeople got it and some don't. Grate Teaser
Have to know huh?...lol
Oh boy, I didn't even have a guess
'cause I've never been a Popey fan.
Good one though, and cute too!

Totally and completely clueless Didn't even have a guess! Good one!
DOWNER, MAN! dOWNER!! Kidding, kinda! Coz you could stare and think about it all day, but if you didn't know the trivia, you wouldn't know the answer! Because I figured pap was a word, at least it's used for a test that females take, then I looked at it "like a grid" (lol, re: other teaser) and all the words made columns with all one letter or two letters, so my guess was , oh heck, I think it was poopeye, but now I can't look back or I'll have to rewrite all this! Show's what can happen when you look at something long enough! But, OK, I grudgingly congratulate you for this teaser! I can't believe anybody knew this! If you knew this, you should know that you're a total cartoon GEEK! Kidding, jk jk jk jk!!!!!!! Happy Thanksgiving everyone, even those outside USA!
Shawneeo, You can look back without loosing your comment by opening a new window and going back in the new window, like I am now looking at your comment while I am typing in mine!
w0w....would of neva guessed dat...ahaha
I got this one right!! But not because I knew some nephews of the spinach eating sailor!! I s'pose I just made a good guess!! But I still got it Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!
I guessed "peepeye" cause it's the only one with a long vowel sound I like the real answer better Did he have any nieces?? (Pupae? Puppy? Poppy?)
DaveC: gee, thanks! aarg. that's hilatious about the neices and the names you made up, LOL!
I SO did not get that one. I guess I should watch Popeye more often- the only Popeye charactors I knew were Popeye & Olive Oil!
I went with the long vowel sound, also. Would've saved a lot of people grief to put this one in the trivia category. Good puzzle, bad category.
I guessed the right answer but for the wrong reason. I've never seen Popeye. But whatever. At least I got it right.
i got it right but for the wrong reason i thought it was because it had an a in it
sorry, don't watch popeye. wouldn't know. but hey, i guess it was okay for all the popeye freaks out there. (JK) anyhow, good one...i guess
ha ha ha ha ha ha
ha ha ha ha ha ha
oh, by the way all you popeye ppl...
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!
That's Olive OYL. The misspelling is part of the fun. It sounds the same but is not spelled oil. Anyway, I used to watch Popeye cartoons all the time when I was a kid but do not remember nephews at all, let alone their names. The only cartoon nephews I remember are Huey, Dewey and Louie! But it was a good teaser, if a bit obscure.
I so got this!! I used to watch Popeye all the time when I was a kid! Good one! Happy Turkey Day Everybody!
That teaser was super easy. But i liked it.
i got it right.............. i liked it much fun.
HAHA Got it right BUT for the wrong reason Did not know the old sailor had nephews?????? It was a cute one.
Looks like this one sparked a lot of brain convolutions!! LOL
My guess was that it had to do with stand-alone words too. Didn't know Pop-eyes' nephews!!
Good one though!!

i got it wrong but it was fun.
Didn't even know that Popeye had nephews. O Well, definite lack of info. Good One!!!
that's a good one 'cause who would know popeye would have nephews!!!!!
I've eatentoo much spinach to get this one!!!! Those nephews came along after I quit watching cartoons.
Nice, I liked it.
well, it would have helped if i had known about these nephew peeps but oh well, nice job anyway!
happy thanksgiving, everybody!
happy thanksgiving, everybody!
OK, if Popeye had nephews, who were his brother(s) and/or sister(s)? Anybody? Also, nice tip DaveC. I just used it to check your name.
I had no idea Popeye has nephews. I always figured it was his and Olive Oyls illegitimate child. Spinich from a can phooey. After watching it for a few days I decided to try spinich from the can and proved to mhself that not even popeye can eat spinich from a can.
haha...guess i'm too young, i never knew anything about popeye, except for the song
Spinach is the only veggie that's really good from a can!!! How can you say it's not good? I abso. love it! Also, black beans are good from a can, but that's it, just those two.
That waz cool!!!!!!! I have 1 of the movie so i knew right off the bat!!!!!!!!!
who would name their kid poopeye
lol - so many responces - i love popeye - typical Australian
