Trivia: Which character in “A Christmas Story” is never given a name?
Ralphie’s dad
The bully
Ralphie’s brother
The neighbors
The correct answer is Ralphie’s dad
So why is this answer correct? : Though Ralphie’s dad is featured heavily in 1983’s “A Christmas Story,” we never find out his name, only knowing him as “The Old Man.” To be fair, we don’t find out his mother’s name either, in keeping with a true child’s perspective.
