I think it's interesting that the list has a "Brain" and a "Brian."

Yeah I actually almost thought Brain was actually Brian when in fact his real name is Alan.

Brian is one of the school kids way back from episode 2 when he was a fourth grader not to be confused with Brain.
Again I doubt his name was ever used in the show but as a model or storyboards here is the kid known as Brian on the attachement.

I don't remember the situation with that list of names but I believe there is a reason that it would not be Brain on that list.

Nope Brian's name isn't on the list. His name however did appear on a list in the episode Arthur's Number Nightmare. That was pretty interesting to see other names like Patrick, Jennifer, John, and Helen to name a few in that episode. In the episode Grandma Thora Appreciation Day names like Willy, Carol, and Richard (I assume it's Richard that I could make out) appeared on a list as well.



I saw the name Brian at the bottom of the list on the image you had posted.  Willy, Carol, and Richard are incidental kids but I forget which class they were in. Maybe I will come across them someday. Here is a line up size comparison model of kids from grade 4 at least they were back in season one. It might have changed along the way though. It shows some of the guys on your  list of names and some others I've been commenting on like Helen and Brian.

You know it's interesting many of these names were seen during that Season 13 episode Arthur's Number Nightmare. I know Frankie is now known as Otis as of the episode Dancing Fools.
