In John Steinbeck's novel "Of Mice and Men," George and Lennie's last names are not given. They are simply referred to as George Milton and Lennie Small.

The boss in "Of Mice and Men" is generally impatient and frustrated by Lennie's mental slowness. He sees Lennie as a hindrance to George and suspects that Lennie might be taking advantage of George. The boss ultimately questions the legitimacy of George and Lennie's relationship.
Steinbeck uses Lennie and George to compare with other workers, many who think them travelling together is strange & are lonely men. The lone workers don't get close to the other workers and don't understand Lennie & George's relationship.
Steinbeck presents Lennie's and George's at the start, as George been the leader, and Lennie been the one that follows George, and is always dependant on him. Also later on in the novella it prove's that George is very protective over Lennie and always has to remind him what to do in a dangerous circumtance. They are both dependant on eachother really, as The Great Depression was going on, and not many people had anyone, they where normally lonley, and working on ranches on there own, Steinbeck is trying to show that what Lennie and George have or shall i say "had" wasn't very common in those days.
George Milton and Lennie SmallMilton is a reference to John Milton, author of Paradise Lost.Small is an ironic reference to Lennie's size.
Steinbeck uses physical descriptions to establish the characters' personalities and dynamics. The contrast between George's small stature and Lennie's huge size sets up their relationship dynamic, with George as the caregiver and protector for Lennie. This initial description foreshadows the power dynamics and themes of friendship and loneliness that will be explored throughout the book.
Steinbeck's decision to end the novel where it began with Lennie and George by the Salinas River reinforces the cyclical nature of their relationship and the inevitability of their fate. By coming full circle, Steinbeck emphasizes the idea that despite their dreams and aspirations, certain circumstances and societal forces will always lead them back to where they started.
Crook's opinion of George and Lennie's desire to get land is that they are crazy. Crook believes they will never achieve that dream because no one ever achieves that dream.
The only drink George mentions in "Of Mice and Men" by John Steinbeck is whiskey.
