Montgomery Ward was often colloquially referred to as "Monkey Ward" due to a combination of its name being somewhat awkward to say and the playful nature of the nickname. The term was also used in a somewhat derogatory manner, suggesting a lack of sophistication or implying that the company's products were of lower quality. Additionally, the nickname gained traction during the mid-20th century, becoming a part of popular culture.

Rudolph was originally created for the Montgomery Ward group in department stores. In 1939, Robert L. May, a copywriter for Montgomery Ward was asked to develop a Christmas story for a promotional gimmick. Looking for an alliterative name, May considered and rejected Rollo (which he concluded was too cheerful for the story of a misfit) and Reginald (which was "too British") before deciding on Rudolph. Montgomery Ward distributed 2.5 million copies of the Rudolph booklet in 1939.
