The references to Critchley in ''Time and Relative'' both call him Little Titch, without quotation marks. His real name is not given. I considered naming the article '''Critchley''', but decided (perhaps wrongly) that it was better to use the full name, even though it's obviously a nickname (after [[Little Tich]]). It could go either way, really. —[[User:Josiah Rowe|Josiah Rowe]] [[User talk:Josiah Rowe|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 07:22, February 2, 2013 (UTC)

: I'm not entirely sure here either. Going without the nickname would mean future-proofing by dabbing with [[Critchley (Time and Relative)]], while using the nickname wouldn't require that, but it doesn't quite work for me, especially since we have no evidence as to the character's level of appreciation of the nickname.
