What's in a Name?

So there was Ronald McDonald ... the Hamburglar ... Mayor McCheese ... Officer Big Mac (who was really a Mick) ... the Fry Guys -- these names all make some vague kind of sense.

What's the story on Grimace?

Does he make faces? What? Wikipedia's no help. He's described as a "well-meaning doofus" but not much on the name, except that it's a hold-over from when he was a bad character ("Evil Grimace"). Can't he get his name changed to Doofus and be done with it? Who's up for the petition?
