I need a name for a teddy bear...

My mum has just bought DS a beautiful teddy bear, one of these and it needs a name.

I think it's a boy (are teddy bears always boys?) and that it should have a french name because it is a french bear.

This is a chance for all those who like naming their children something sensible but secretly yearn for something a bit more unusual!

So far I thought of Alphonse.

Do your worst best!

PS am aware this isn't teddy bear names topic, but bear with me. boom boom.

Actually, I'd let DS name the bear, it is his after all isn't it?
