Naming a Mascot...

Check out the handsome fella below.

Nameless handsome mascot


Quite distinguished and noble, isn't he?

He is my Blog Mascot, but before I introduce him properly, he really needs a name.

There's Jumbo, Dumbo, Pachy, and Airavata...there's Elmer, Babar, Horton, and Queenie...but, whatever he is called, he's no White Elephant!

I'd be ever so grateful if you'd help me out and leave your mightiest moniker for my mascot in the Comments section. Don't forget to check back and see what we came up with!

Oh, and incidentally, I'm having a wonderful time in India...more details to follow soon.

Thanks for stopping by!

xoxo

    1. Very clever! He actually has a little elephant inside...but, you did make me giggle on and off all day!

  2. My first thought was Oliphant, as in Tolkien's LOTR! He could be Olly for short.
    However I find this elephant really pretty, maybe a delicate name would suit?
    I love your blog!

    1. I love it! But, I have a wonderful cousin named Ollie! Perhaps you are right...he should be a she?

  3. Miss you Wild Rose! So special - thanks for sharing the wonderful photo of you standing beside your dear Mum. :) Holophant and Oliphant are terrific choices. Maybe Dottie or Dottiphant helping to connect the dots of your amazing travel adventure. Or Trunkie, Classiphant, Holly-phant, Audrey-phant, Hepburn, Indie, or Rishi. Thinking of you. Wishing you and Prof a spectacular time!

  4. How about some Indian names.
    Raahi means traveller
    Ramana means pleasing, enchanting, delightful

    1. Welcome Tabitha! I think you might be right! So much of where we are right now reminds me of tales of the Raj!
