I have a question

... which I will crosspost for obvious reasons.

What - assuming Starsky and Hutch are working with them on a case and become at least semi-friendly - would Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin call them? Hutch works, but surely not "Starsky"? For those of you familiar with both worlds, what do you think?

Well, Hutch never uses David, but other people do (Hutch of course being a special case anyway). I'm thinking of NS and IK. They call each other, and friends, by their first names, so it makes sense that they'd say "Ken" and "David" once they got to know S&H. While I can see them using "Hutch" I can't see them saying "Starsky." It just seems out of character for NS and IK.
