19 July 1941 - A CARTOON CAT AND MOUSE GET THEIR NAMES: William Hanna
and Joseph Barbera release a new cartoon, 'The Midnight Snack,'
featuring a cat named Tom and a mouse named Jerry. The characters had
appeared in a previous cartoon as Jasper and Jinx. The new names will
stick, and the feuding animals will appear in more than 150 shorts and
several spinoffs.

It is the second of the Tom and Jerry films, returning to the basic
premise of the previous film, Puss Gets the Boot, following that
cartoon's Academy Awards nomination.

This cartoon featured the second appearance of Tom and Jerry, and was
the first in which the characters were given their familiar names; the
first cartoon, Puss Gets the Boot had the cat named Jasper and the mouse
without a name, though animation model sheets referred to the latter as
"Jinx"
