From: Ed <Blanchett@RU-GREEN.ARPA> Yes, Kirk's middle name WAS revealed, but not in the series. It was given in one of the ST cartoons (which one exactly, I can't remember). Looking for better things to do with Saturday mornings, -Ed. -------

What about the episode where Kirk is court martialed for ejecting the guy in the pod on yellow alert, I think you know the episode I am relating to, when Kirk takes the stand and puts his palm on the computer lie detector, doesn't it read out his entire record starting with his FULL name ? -- -- Chuck - - - D I S C L A I M E R - - - {ihnp4,fortune}!Dual\ All opinions expressed herein are my {proper,idi}-> !intelca!cem own and not those of my employer, my {ucbvax,hao}!hplabs/ friends, or my avacado plant. :-} ARPAnet : "hplabs!intelca!cem"@Berkeley

Nope! The computer says only 'James T. Kirk'... The only reference to Kirk's middle name that I have seen was in the novelization of STTMP, by Kirk himself in the forward. The cited episode (Court Martial) does provide material for a real hummer of a trivia question: What is James T. Kirk's serial number? Unfortunately, I can't remember. Anyone?

I don't believe Kirk's full name is used until the TV cartoon releases were done. His name is spoken by a sloth/jello alien creature who is telepathic, I don't recall the episode or the aliens names but each of the aliens refer to Kirk as James Tiberius Kirk.
