What’s In a Name
Chumlee is undoubtedly one of the most popular members of the Pawn Stars cast, but have you ever wondered where he got his unusual nickname from?
Well, the truth is it came from the classic animated TV series Tennessee Tuxedo and His Tales, featuring a penguin in the title role. And the penguin’s sidekick was a dim-witted walrus called, you guessed it, Chumley! Chumlee is certainly no dimwit, but that’s the truth of the inspiration behind the name.
