The names for stuffed animals and stuffed animal toys are surprisingly diverse, which makes my job of choosing the perfect name for my stuffed animals that much harder.
One great online tool for finding names for stuffed animals is called the Zodiac Generator (see link below). I had a friend send me a list of names for my dog’s stuffed animals and when I tried to use the Zodiac Generator to find the final name, I ran into all sorts of problems.
After a bit of digging, I discovered that the Zodiac Generator is more like a name generator for my stuffed animals than a bunch of names. This means I can use it to look up the names for my puppy (who is a blue collar Italian greyhound named “Pepo”), my cat (a black and white spotted cat named “Cuddles”), and my dog (a chocolate lab named “Lamb”).
I have a little list of name generators for the stuffed animals you can get here.
I’m not sure if you’re familiar with my stuffed animals. I have a dog, a cat, and a cat-on-dog, which is an alien cat. But I also have an alien dog. Anyway, I’m not sure if you want to see a list of my stuffed animal names. But I have a list here of the names of my cats and my dog.
For the cat-on-dog, I just used my favorite name generator called “Tinkerbell”. For the alien dog, you can use my favorite name generator called “The Beast.” For the cat, I used a name generator called “The Cat.” And if you want to see a list of my dog names, just go here.
There are some strange exceptions to the rules of stuffed animal names. For example, my cat is called “Pussycat”, but I happen to have a “Pussycat” cat. And my dog’s name is “BaggyPiggyDog”, but I don’t have a “BaggyPiggyDog” dog.
The truth is you can’t escape from your stuffed animal self. You are a stuffed animal with a heart. So keep your heart in check. And your stuffed animal self is, well, stuffed.
The other day I was playing with a stuffed dog named Rumpelstiltskin. I was playing with him for a while, and then I put him in a drawer, and he took me by surprise.
Like with Rumpelstiltskin, I was surprised because I didn’t really know what Rumpelstiltskin was. I’ve seen it a few different ways over the last few years, and for some reason I had never really thought about it before. Not just because I’m a huge fan of the Super Nintendo series, and it’s a staple of my life, but because of the way it is.
