Tarzan didn't "own" a monkey in the novels, but often had a monkey companion: Either N'kima or Manu...one of those two, or maybe both.
The above is pretty much correct. The chimpanzee named Cheeta was an invention of the film producers/directors/writers/whatevers, and did not appear in the novel.
The line "Me Tarzan, you Jane" while thumping first on his chest and then on hers (Jane had a very pretty chest, so it would have been a bit exciting if it did happen) also did not happen either in the book or in the movie...it is just a bit of enduring folklore.
The name of Tarzan's Chimpanzee in the movies of the 1930's and 40's was Cheeta.
In the old movies, I believe the name was Cheeta.
Tarzan's chimp was named "Cheetah".
Of course, he never prospered...
just because
Tarzan's monkey was a chimp named Cheeta.
