Why does the talking zebra always address Candace as Kevin?
In Phineas and Ferb, we meet the talking zebra a lot and it's a character of Candace's imagination. But, why did it call Candace "Kevin"? That's a male name and has no relation to Candace. Is this some reference to any other show, etc.?
Best Answer
From the Phineas and Ferb wikia:
It is currently unknown why the Talking Zebra calls Candace "Kevin". Although, as revealed in the Phineas and Ferb The Movie: Across the 2nd Dimension, Kevin may actually be the Candace of the Zebra's dimension. However, how, or even why the zebra seems to cross dimensions is unknown.
Notice the silhouette of the image where it bears striking resemblance to Candace...
There is also a passing reference where the Zebra says "I voted for you Kevin!" with Candace's face...
