** It is worth noting that at first, Lil'E's shirt still has an uppercase E on it and she is basically Evan as a hyperactive 6-year-old girl. As Lil'E turns into Lilly, developing a separate personality who occasionally shows up in Evan's thought bubbles, her dress starts showing the lowercase e. And "Missy" (Miss E) is teenage Lilly, ''not'' simply female Evan, hence the "l" instead of an "e"
