Run Little Penguin, run!!!!
Lowly

SquidBert
I vote for Kowalski

Hope his/her conjunctivitis is better now.
(One of my students was recently given a compulsory leave of absence until he got it fixed, so that stuff must be infectious.)
The name is going to be something cute, right, like "Edowa-do Shiza-maus"

Steve McQueen

To all of the above, forget it. They are most likely to name this penguin like they did with the seals they spotted in the rivers. Edo-chan or something.
nandakandamanda
Bambi?

Lupin!!! He must be named after the greatest master of escape to ever grace Anime.

How about 'unlucky' , as he got caught.
Or Monty as the sea around Japan may cause him to mutate into a twenty foot electric penguin with stinging tentacles !
Franchesca Miyara Yang
How about....."Kawaiiso''
par avion
Call him Michael Scofield, or whoever fits his character.

What about double 3 7, license to escape.

I was going to a boring "Humphrey", but Squidbert's suggestion just cracked me up!
Iowan
"The Penguin Formerly Known as '337'" ?
Then dye the black to purple.
jessebaybay
probably the best 82 days of his life
Jaybee Moriyama
Double Oh Seven! haha, unfortunately he got captured again!
Sioux Chef
Lupin CCCXXXVII

Is his current name san san nana? sounds good to me
Greapper1
"Goldflipper"
Like "goldfinger" from 007 movie.
REMzzz
You're thinking of Papillion, right?
Steve was good in it, as always and so was Dustin Hoffman in those coke bottle glasses. Good movie about an escape off a prison island. Relevant. Good catch :)

REMzzz I think he was meaning "The Great Escape"... Hilts, was the character's name, I think.. Yes, just Googled it, Hilts.

"Fido"

I am not a number. I am a free penguin.
FightingViking
Tuxedo Jo (since he's still wearing his tux...)

Probably end up being called Pengi-chan.
Fadamor
Steve McQueen was a good choice (for "The Great Escape"), but it's unlikely they'll go with a first and last name, and "Steve" would be too obscure. So I guess "Lupin the 337th" might be a better choice.

Give that penguin a baseball and a glove!
Guza!
Bruce Wayne xD
REMzzz
Oh, i remember that one. Never seen it though. My favorites are pretty generic though, Bullitt and The Getaway (with Ali MacGraw). But he is good in everything. Great guy, gone too soon :(
How about just the last name? Although Lupin would work as well...
Tom Webb
337 survived for 82 days in Tokyo bay. only fitting name is Edoko.
