dc - Is it 'Batmen' or 'Batmans'?



If Batman met a clone of himself or a Batman from an alternate dimension, would we say:



There are two Batmen



or



There are two Batmans



You'd assume Batmen but Batman is his name, not his title.


Have we ever seen any examples in canon?




Answer



This issue of Superman/Batman is called:



Supermen/Batmen



So I'd have to assume that's the correct way to say it.


Grammatically, Batmans might actually be correct since it's his name and not his title, like you say. But Batmans just sounds wrong.
