        The name change to Brutus didn't appear until 1957, that would be Bluto. Brutus was later retconned to be Bluto's brother.

        Check out the wartime propaganda animes "Momotaro's Sea Eagles" and "Momotaro's Divine Sea Warriors", both of which feature Bluto as a cowardly American sailor.
