What a coincidence, I was watching Family Matters last night and Carl tells the same joke. It's in season 1, episode 19 "In a Jam", starting at around 11m10s. Terrible joke, lol.

Now you know.

I'd argue that the "The" is actually part of the last name.

Similar to medieval last names like with "Henry of Skalitz", "Sigismund of Luxembourg" where the "of" is afaik part of the last name. Other languages may have translations like "Heinrich von Skalitz"(german) or "Zikmund Lucemburský"(czech).
