Rodney Trotter Rodney tells Trigger that if Del and Raquel's baby is a boy, they will name it Rodney after him. Trigger then tells Mike, the landlord of The Nags Head pub, who is holding a "Guess the baby name" competition, that "If it's a boy, they're naming him Rodney, after Dave". Another instance was portrayed in "Modern Men", when Mike announced a toast to future Mum and Dad "Cassandra and Rodney"; everyone said "Cassandra and Rodney", but Trigger could be heard shouting "Dave" after everyone else stops talking. In "Homesick", Rodney did tell Trigger to his face that his name was
Healthy Competition partnership with his friend Mickey Pearce. Del and Grandad warn Rodney that Mickey Pearce is not to be trusted and has no business sense, but Rodney dismisses their claims. Del warns Rodney that going it alone means he has to pay for everything himself from now, but Rodney goes ahead with it, insisting that he can prove he is just as good as Del. Rodney raises his revenue by informing Del that he owns one half of "Trotters" to which Del, after slight hesitation, gives Rodney money from the pile (though clearly less than half, in keeping with his character).
