The 1961 story ends with the boy's death by drowning, which was ironic because the parents had believed that giving children long names would cause them to live long lives.

It is possible that a recorded 1960 version of the story called "Long-Name-No-Can-Say" with a fat elder brother named "Nicki Nicki Tembo No So Rembo Oo Ma Moochi Gamma Gamma Goochi" was the first to change it to a Chinese setting.Ī similar story is told in the American folksong "(Eddie Kucha Kacha Kama Tosa Nara Tosa Noma) Sama Kama Wacky Brown" recorded in 1960 by the Brothers Four on their eponymous first album the title character "fell into the deep, dark well" and drowned.Ī story published in 1961 by Golden Press, called "The Little Boy With the Long Name", featured an older brother named "Sticky Sticky Stumbo Nos E Rumbo E Pro Pennyo Hara Bara Brisko Nicky Prom Po Nish No Mennyo Dumbricko". In 1924, the National Association of Junior Chautauquas published a book that contained a story by an anonymous author entitled "Tiki-Tiki-Tembo" the story concerned a boy "in old Japan" named "Tiki-tiki-tembo-no sa rembo-Hari bari broohski-Peri pen do-Hiki pon pom-Nichi no miano-Dom bori ko." Toward the end of the 1924 story, it is stated that after falling into the well, the title character "never grew up to be a fine Japanese man." A book published in 1968 (the same year as Tikki Tikki Tembo) reprinted the 1924 version of the story. Specifically, it has been suggested that the story originated from the very similar Japanese rakugo about Jugemu Jugemu Gokō-no surikire Kaijarisuigyo-no Suigyōmatsu Unraimatsu Fūraimatsu Kūnerutokoro-ni Sumutokoro Yaburakōji-no burakōji Paipopaipo Paipo-no-shūringan Shūringan-no Gūrindai Gūrindai-no Ponpokopī-no Ponpokonā-no Chōkyūmei-no Chōsuke.

However, the story is thought to have come from Japan rather than from China. as a child" and that the book is "her own retelling" of it. (I don’t know the spelling, and searching on this variation may not help).The publisher states that the author "first heard the story. The final version I heard is the one my mother and grandfather use: rikki tikki tembo no sa rembo hari bari buski pip pi perido hi tee pom pom ichio mee ono dom bianko and his brother Tom. The second version I have heard is tikki tikki tembo no sarimbo hari kari bushki perry pembo do hai kai pom pom nikki no meeno bom barako and his brother Sam. There was: tikki tikki tembo-no sa rembo-chari bari ruchi-pip peri pembo said to mean "the most wonderful think in the world, and his brother Chang said to mean “little or nothing”. The first one I heard was in a picture book I had as a child. The story is about two brothers who each fall down the well, and because rikki tikki has such a long name, he drowns because it takes his brother so long to say his name and raise the alarm. Just do a google search on the variations of the names.

I can provide links if requested, but I hesitate to do so because the links include the full text of the story, and it could be copyrighted. Two of them online, and one of them in the story that my grandfather and mother told me. I have heard at least three versions of rikki tikki’s name.

I’m not sure that this counts as “literature” in the forum description, but it’s a story, and a book I remember… Mods please move if I got this one wrong.
