Talk:Basil Hawkins

BaSil or BaGil?
Umm, I can't see the letter in his first name. Is it a S or a G? Does the japanese pronunciation of his name help clarify things?Mugiwara Franky 17:17, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Treasure Island reference?
I know that Oda loves making references to pirates both real and fictional, but somehow I think that "Basil Hawkins" might be a reference to Jim Hawkins, the boy chasing after pirate treasure in Robert Louis Stevenson's "Treasure Island". (just like how Crocodile is somewhat a Captain Hook reference) I'd put it up on this page but I guess its just speculation so not at this time. -StrangerAtaru 23:21, 25 April 2008 (UTC)


 * There's also a John Hawkins who maybe the inspiration but it's also unclear like Jim Hawkins if it's the person Oda based on.Mugiwara Franky 05:25, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
