In the original Night Court, what is Bull's actual first name?

As I got older and stopped to consider the actual premise of Night Court, I found it to be absurd. That is, until I found it it’s a real thing with real cases.
I wish the characters from the original Night Court, running from 1984 to 1992, were real too. Especially Bull, the affable Bailiff whose larger-than-life presence made him lovable and cherished. He always seemed like a gentle giant. Bull is a safe place.
Portrayed by the recently departed Richard Moll, this is one of the most beloved characters from any ‘80s sitcom. But “Bull” isn’t his real name. What’s his actual first name?

Correct Answer: Aristotle
The answer is: Aristotle. Bull’s full name is Aristotle Nostradamus Shannon. While it’s never actually made clear where his nickname comes from, I’m guessing it was due to his large stature. His real first name (and middle name) might be pretty apt, as it was revealed in season 5 that he’s technically a genius, with an IQ of 181.Source
