...but I'll mention a couple minor things.
1. Contrary to the explanation given in the article, the name Jack Napier comes from the word "jackanapes", which is another word for a mischievous person.
2. The first time Joker's name was hinted to be anything resembling Jack Napier was in Legends of the Dark Knight #50 (July 1993).
3. It's important to note, I think, that the only times his actual name is Jack Napier is in alternate realities. The few times it's used in the main DC Universe, it's as an alias.
