The many names and voices of Cookie Monster across the globe. Although occasionally Cookie will be given an actual name or nickname, like "Lucas" in Mexico and "Triki" in Spain, his localized name is usually fairly literal translation of "Cookie" (or the local equivalent) and "Monster." His personality is generally consistent, although Germany's "Krümelmonster" and the Dutch "Koekiemonster" speak in a grammatically correct manner.
