IIRC they pronounced it correctly on Leave It To Beaver. Cuyler was one of the players who had signed Ward's baseball that Eddie Haskell, et al. took out and played with.

The story that I have always heard was that Cuyler was a stutterer. When someone asked his name he replied, "Cuy...Cuy..." Hence, he became Ky Ky.
Nicknames back in the day weren't concerned about feelings or political correctness. Right, Dummy? Last edited by Jerry G; 12-06-2022 at 12:26 PM.
