She's Linda Gibson in one story (1)
Jon Madison. That’s terrible. Might as well name him George Washington or Ronald Reagan if you’re going to name him Jon Madison. I don’t think I like any of them tbh.
I think since then, Gibson seems to be the preferred last name for Jon. Madison is still used only in continuations of branches/stories where it was previously established to be his surname. In most branches these days, it's Gibson.
In one branch, I had it stated that 'Madison' was Jon's mother's maiden name, while the father's last name was Gibson. Meanwhile, Jon's grandfather, due to his interest in magical artifacts, got the nickname 'Merlin' in the community of people with similar interests.
Madison as Linda's maiden name is somewhat common, though I've also seen Webster used at least twice. My split of the On the Set Branch had Jon Gibson's actress's name be Madison "Maddie" Merlin as a nod to the other common names.
