How to choose a name for your plush
- Look at the face. A sleepy expression suits a slow name, and a bright, alert face suits a short one.
- Say it out loud. Names that are easy for kids to pronounce are used more often.
- Match the color. Honey for gold, Cocoa for brown, Snowball for white.
- Think of a story. If it is a gift, the name can say something about the person who gave it.
- Let the child choose. A kid's name is usually the one that sticks.
