Yup, that's His *actual* name. I couldn't give a rat's ass less what the episode namer's called Him. In the show they always called Him 'Mongo', not 'Mungo'.

And for the record, I clearly remember hearing Riff-Raff's voice-actor calling the big tom "Mungo" on many occasions, but I thought it was just the VA's own speech accent. One of the things that makes English such a hard language is that there are many, many ways to say each letter. I can think of three inflections for the first vowel in this character's name off the top of my head.

Well, through my decades of show facts, I found out that Mongo was actually based off the Char *Mongo* (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28khv-BydeY) from Blazing Saddles. For the most part, RiffRaff's (and Wordsworth's) VA (Stanley Jones) called Him Mongo. But... no-biggie.
