That's the way I took it.

Kinda, a first name basis, folksy, friendly, etc,.. thing

Also, I remember as a little kid the following....

Television?[edit]

Kent Taylor (Boston Blackie), Lois Collier (Mary Wesley) and Frank Orth (Inspector Farraday) pose with Whitie in TV's Boston Blackie (1951–53)

Kent Taylor starred in the Ziv-produced half-hour TV series The Adventures of Boston Blackie. Syndicated in September 1951, it ran for 58 episodes, lasting until 1953,[48] continuing in repeats over the following decade. Lois Collier appeared as Mary Wesley and Frank Orth was Inspector Farraday.[49] The series was set in Los Angeles; Mary and Blackie had a dog named Whitie, and comedy sometimes took precedence over crime.[50]

Wow, take the Panama Canal next time lol.

You shortened Blackhawk's alias to Blackie, and then thought better of it, just in case he was Black.

I think that sums it up, yes?
