Biography

Nicky and Alex were the identical twin sons of Jesse Katsopolis and Rebecca "Becky" Donaldson, portrayed by Blake and Dylan Tuomy-Wilhoit. They are blond, generally well-behaved toddlers throughout the series with no distinctions between them, though Nicky mostly dresses in blue or green and Alex is usually seen in red. They often repeat each other. Alexander was named after Becky's high school teacher who inspired her to do journalism, while Nicky was named after Pam and Jesse's dad. Jesse stated the reason Nicky received his name was because he gave him a great head of hair and he wants Nicky to also have great hair. Their characters were invented with the idea that they would take off in popularity like Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, but that never happened. In the "Full House" books, it is revealed that Nicky is a little more adventurous, while Alex is the slightly more insecure one who usually wants to be near his brother. In one episode of the TV series, when one of the twins has a cold, it evolves into a disagreement between Jesse and Becky about how to handle them. Becky worries that Jesse will turn Nicky into a rebel, while Jesse worries Becky will turn Alex into a wimp. However, this situation is quickly resolved and is never further pursued. Therefore, it is safe to say that, in the TV series, there is never a time when the characters truly have separate identities. Some of their catchphrases included the other twin repeating the phrase one said with "double" at the front of the sentence. Sometimes one would call something "bad", and the other would call it "yucky."

Blake and Dylan played Nicky and Alex from season six through the show's finale in 1995. The twins were about one when they started to play the part of Nicky and Alex. Prior to that the Renteria twins played the "baby versions" of Nicky and Alex from "Happy Birthday Babies, Part 2" to the end of season five. They were born on Michelle Tanner's birthday.

It is never stated which twin is the oldest. Although most consider it is Alex.
