Dr. No's first name was not mentioned in the film, was it?
Come to think of it, Honeychile Ryder was known only as Honey (no last
name), if I'm not mistaken.
Haven't seen the film since the early 1970s, so forgive my faulty
memory.

She tells Bond that her name is "Ryder."
He replies, "Ryder what?"
She says, "Honey Ryder."

Thanks for the correction/clarification.

Oh, it was clarification, not correction. This isn't school :)
To be honest, I had to double check it before I replied because I was
convinced that she said, "Ryder. Honey Ryder."

I've always thought it was interesting that he left such a mark as
Bond Villain's roles go considering that he only had about 20 minutes
of screen time. A very memorable performance. Great underrated
actor.

He throws better dinner parties than I do, despite being an arch villain.
Low key reserved performances as villains work better than screen-chewing
performances do. He didn't come off like a Hollywood WWII German officer,
so perhaps that was a nice contrast for movie audiences.
