I watched National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation tonight and I noticed that Ellen refers to Clark by the nickname Sparky and I have never figured it out? Is Sparky a nickname she often called Clark when they first met or is it Ellen's term for sweetheart honey or dear?
shareShe’s called him that in all of them I think it’s just a cute nickname she has for him
shareMaybe because it rhymes with Clarky ?
shareBecause of his volatile temper?
shareI read someplace that ---That --- was a nickname she gave Chevy, and still calls him that away from the movies
shareIT WAS BEVERLY D'ANGELO'S INVENTION...SHE CALLS HIM SPARKY ON AND OFF CAMERA.
shareMaybe because he gets electrocuted often?
