I need help naming this chap. He's called "street bear" something so inpersonal it hurts. I would call him blackie but that has a racist ring to it, plus it shows a lack of imagination on my part. It seems to me, the bear deserves a nice name.

What about Swartz? (Svart means black in Swedish so then you get his colour in without it sounding racist.)
Hey Edina. Just stopping in to say hi and hope you have a great week!
How about Zelmo?
Licorice. I want to bite him.
anna: Sounds like a mighty good idea. I need to practice so it rolls off my tongue first. BTW Does "swatch" of the watch variety mean black in some way too?? Curious.
Fred: Zebra+elmo=zelmo??
gnightgirl: hahah I admit, he looks rather black and juicy in the picture.
I will mull over all suggestions...and give the answer by the end of the week:)
I'm with gnightgirl. Liquorice. Absolutely.
I like Licorice too actually. Maybe because it is one of my favourite types of candy! But Swartz has still stuck with me. And no, I don't think Swatch has anything to do with black. Isn't it from Swiss watches --> Swatch?!
He looks like a Horace to me.
aunty marianne: Great minds think alike:) It's an acquired taste liquorice....isn't it??
Anna: Swatz ....swatch its close:) Btw my flik flak swatch proved to be non water resistant.
Thesaurus rex: *nod head* yes It can be a Horace. Amazing how some names just leap out of the blue.
I suppose the name Horace is feeling very little-used these days. Seems a perfectly good name. And a plastic bear won't get beat up on the way to school if you call it Horace, unlike, say, your daughter.
Well Mr plastic Horace has a new role on the desk...his left hand when bent slightly serves as a rubber band holder.
