What is Cookie Monster’s REAL Name?

I haven't been this shocked since Kramer's real first name was revealed on Seinfeld.

Honestly, I didn't even know Cookie Monster HAD another name. First name: Cookie.  Last name: Monster.

Apparently, I've been living a Sesame Street lie.

At around the :30 mark in this video, Mr. Monster reveals his real first name.  And now you know.

And knowing is half the battle.
