"The Flintstones" came first.
Yogi Bear, Quickdraw McGraw, and others soon followed.
Several of our classmates assumed Hanna-Barbera identities...
TopCat and Snaggletooth are two that come to mind, (although Snaggletooth didn't much care for his moniker).
Were there others?

Just realized, "Snag" was a schoolmate, not a classmate.
I just wrote a post and it got erased . . . . so much for my post . . . . . . . it had to do with Deputy dog and Crazy Guginheim (spl) from Jackie Gleason's show when Jackie did the character Joe the Bartender . . . later

Oooh, I hate when that happens.
Muskrat!
I don't know of any other classmates named in honor of the Flintstones. But when I worked at CGHS one of the teachers could never remember my name. When I would say "hi" to her she got that "deer in the headlights look" and say "uh, oh Hi Wilma" HAH!! CRACKED ME UP! That always reminded me of Wilma Flintstone.

Now if I can just remember the next time I see you . . . . . . . Wilma . . . . .
GB You're right, "That dad-burn Muskie, get out of the dad-burn hen house" said with tongue hanging out side of mouth . . those were the days, but I'm still not sure just what lasting negative effect those cartoons had on me. Some might say that's obvious but I don't notice anything too strange or different (said with tongue hanging out side of mouth)

A few years back I bought hubby the complete set of Pinky and the Brain and we have spent hours get our laughs.
Right now TC is the only one I can think of, but then again, there is only one TC. And you got that covered.
