i don’t see this talked about very often bc it is largely unimportant to the scheme of things but there is like. a debate to be had, right. until sonic 2 stone was our One named government agent. and he is always addressed as agent stone or stone which gives it a very Last Name Gravitas. however the name ‘stone’ being both a feasible last name and just a random object name means that like. stone could be his last name. or it could be a code name.
and the thing is i don’t know if movie 2 ever answered that which really makes me laugh because we do now have a second named agent, but when he’s actively known to be on duty he’s only addressed as ‘agent’, and ‘agent handel (? no official spelling yet)’. which also falls into this theme of ‘name that could be both a real name or a code name’ ie handel sounds exactly like Handle
i guess you can say commander walters kinda bursts this bubble unless you count him as separate from Agents or try to kinda stretch to make it work (like Waters or Altars or something) but i feel like since he’s a commander he doesn’t disrupt my Agent Theory. so here are my conclusions about Dumb Agent Theory
1. the agents do indeed use code names, which means we are missing a first AND last name for stone
2. the agents don’t use code names, and these two’s naming isn’t actually a convention and no other agents would go along with this
3. the agents don’t use code names, BUT they all coincidentally all have names that sound like random object names. by accident.
