What's so wrong about the phrase "Roger the Captain Boy"?

I read that it was a popular myth that the characters of Captain Pugwash have double entendre names. Some examples given were Master Bates, Seaman Staines, and Roger the Cabin Boy, when the real names were Master Mates, there was no Seaman Staines, and Tom the Cabin Boy.

I don't get what's so bad about "Roger the Cabin Boy"-I know it has to do with the name Roger, if "Tom the Cabin Boy" is okay...

"Roger" is British slang for the sexual act. So "roger the cabin boy" is a double entendre.
