Character background

Like all of the ''Scooby-Doo'' kids, later ret-conned as Mystery Incorporated members, Velma has a differing personal backstory and origin in different series. In the original flagship ''

'' series, Velma is shown to attend the same high school as the rest of the gang (as stated in the inaugural episode " What a Night for a Knight"). However, by ''The New Scooby-Doo Movies'', Velma is said to have graduated from a different high school (as stated in the episode "Spirited Spooked Sports Show"). In the film '' Scooby-Doo! Curse of the Lake Monster'', it is revealed that her middle name is Daisy. According to '' Scooby-Doo: Behind the Scenes'', before she said "Jinkies!" she used to say "Oh, my!" but it wasn't as catchy. Her parents are depicted to have pushed her from an early age to excel in her studies, resulting in hundreds of awards for outstanding achievement. Because of this, she is more vocal than her comrades would like. Of course, she also does her share of sweet-talking too. During the first season of the 2010–2013 series '' Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated'', Velma is in a
