I've never done a comprehensive accounting, but two more that leap to mind:

Holmes

Fred C. Dobbs (Humphrey Bogart's character in the movie "Treasure of the Sierra Madre"). This is sometimes abbreviated to "Fred C.," or, as Kelly calls Scotty once, "Dobbsy".

Ah, thanks Dorinda - now you wrote it I remember "Fred C.", but didn't understand it back then. What a nice way to broaden my education in movies ;-)

And, Watson. And, was there a 'Captain Marvel', or was that fanfic?

Whoah, now that you mention it, I think I misremembered the line from "Lisa"! I do believe that he actually calls Kelly "Captain Marvel" in that scene, not Captain America. You are so right.

Now, I'm wondering if "Captain America" shows up someplace else, or if my mind just did a substitution. I think I can hear it in my head, uncontextualized, but memories can be funny things. Hmmmm.
