A viral map of the nephews' names around the world

Created in 1937, Donald Duck's three nephews were called Huey (Huebert), Dewey (Dewford) and Louie (Llewellyn) in the United States. Their makers presented them as the sons of a lesser known character, Della Duck. What Disney might never have imagined is that, nearly a century later, the three brothers would have different names in each country where they were read and broadcast. A map with all their different, funny names went viral on social media.
