Chumlee’s Quirky Namesake

Chumlee is undoubtedly one of the ultimate fan favorites, with his unique charm and antics. But have you ever paused to wonder how he got his distinctive nickname?

It comes from the classic animated series “Tennessee Tuxedo and His Tales,” which featured a penguin and his less-than-brilliant walrus friend named Chumley.

While our real-life Chumlee might share a name with the cartoon walrus, he defies the character’s dim-witted reputation with his knack for dealing in the pawn business. This fun bit of trivia adds another layer to the personality we see on screen!
