About Carmelita Spats, I was looking in the dictionary and it said that "spats" are something to cover someone ankles. Interesting...

I can't decide if Carmelita's last name comes from the past tense of spit, sometimes used to describe the way a character says something nasty, or if it's from a term for "small arguments". Either way, it's unpleasant in a way that mere footwear isn't.

Itsn't mere footwear, it's to cover your ANKLES! What would want to cover in your ankles? A tattoo...
