Mr Olin from the Hotel Dolphin

[Thewritersapprentice]

Hello everyone - it's great to be here! I am just new to the website
so please bear with me while I get used to things!
A quick question -
Does anyone know if Mr. King changed the name Ostermeyer to Olin
not only for the reason of economy of text but also in order to rhyme with
the Hotel Dolphin?

Regards,

Steve didn't change it. The screenplay wasn't written by him.

...and besides, Flipper had the right of refusal....
