Wondering what to call your teddy bear? Here are the best names for stuffed animals broken down by animal type and color!
Kids accumulate a lot of stuffed animals. However, each one – especially when it is new – is special in it’s own way.
My kids love naming their stuffed animals. My daughter in particular is obsessed with saying “what’s her name” and wants everything and everyone to have their own name.
How do you pick a name for a stuffed animal?
The most important thing to me is to let my kids name their own stuffed animals. They come up with some WACKY names and I really love it.
If they need help, here are a few things to consider:
- What are the features of the stuffie – the animal type, color, material, size, etc
- Does it remind you of anyone?
- Did you get it somewhere special?
However, if you are totally stumped, here are some stuffed animal name ideas to get your juices flowing.
