In the first episode, the passengers and crew of the Minnow are listening to a news report about their accident on the radio and all their names are read out by the news announcer. The Skipper is Captain Jonas Grumby, and the Professor's name was Roy Hinkley. There actual names were never spoken on the show again.
Gilligan's first name, according to Sherwood Schwartz, was 'Willy'. Willy Gilligan - there's a name to conjure with!
