The problem with Bones?

[cactuswatcher]

Nobody remembers the names of the characters!!!

How are we supposed to remember one of the assistants is Zack and the other Jack? Who in the world named Dr. Brennan "Temperance?" "Seely" Booth is even harder to remember. Dr. Goodman isn't so tough, but quick, give the last names of Bones' assistants. Zack Addy, Jack Hodgins (Not the more familiar Hodges, Hodgkins, or Hodgson) and Angela ... Oh shoot, I forgot again!!

I assumed that Temperance was named by Kathy Reichs, whose novels the show is based on. I may be wrong, since I haven't read any of them. She doesn't seem to use her first name much, though! Can't say I blame her.

I knew someone named Prudence and I keep calling Bones, "Prudence Brennan."
