Okay so yesterday, my PTSD got so bad, that while I was shopping with Sharon and Sam, I bought a plush toy to act as my emergency support helper.

She is a beholder (From D&D), and yes, she is in fact pink.(was there a question about that?_

Anyway she did a good job, but now, she needs a name.

Any suggestions?

What type of plushie

If it is a dragon you could give a shout out to Amersyt and name it Peaches

Dorothy's plushie's name

I'm lousy at naming things; I'd be likely to call the plushy "plushy." That, or wait a bit until a good name surfaces.

Blob?

I had to do a google search to find our what a 'beholder' is. Now that I know...

How about 'Blob', or 'Bob' for short? Or maybe 'Killer Tomato' which could be shortened to 'Tom'.

Or you could call it 'Sam' in honour of the three times winner of "The world's ugliest dog" contest.

Going in a different direction, you could also call it 'Huggles'.

The name of the female

The name of the female archangel is Jophiel. A guardian of all and an angel of kindness and mercy.

After Easter when Plushy bunnies went on sale I bought six of them. So far have passed out two. One each to a doctor at the VA when they made a comment about the bunny peeking up out of my purse. Double statement as I am a female and have a soft spot. Brings smiles to people's faces when they see the bunny peeking out of my purse even when they don't say anything.

Waiting rooms are for naps. "Barbie?" It took a second time to come out of the dream and realize someone was calling my name. When I opened my eyes, the nurse was at the door and everyone in that room was pointing at me. I never told anyone what my name was. I bet the bunny squealed on me when I didn't respond. Be careful with your plushy, they don't keep secrets

Hugs Dorothy, may your plushy give you all the loving comfort you desire.

Canonically, the pink beholder's name is "Fluffy."

At least if you're going by Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms :)

As for a name for yours? Well, Xanathar is the name of the beholder that lives under Waterdeep, so... how about Xinny? (Pronounced "Zen-Nee")

Cute, fun, lore friendly :)

Plushie beholder names

Pinky or Rosie (due to hue)
Blinky, Winky or Gazer (due to eyes) or
Mr More Eyes Than the Average Potato (because... because.)

I like Irony in my naming of things.

When I was a teenager my family had a Chihuahua I named Goliath.

My wife gave me a plush sloth pillow for our latest anniversary that promptly received the name Speedy.

Yaaaay, Dorothy!

A D&D 'Beholder' ?!??!

I had a look at D & D Beholders in Wikipedia. Lady, you don't mess around, do you?

Never mind >your< P-T-S-D - A Beholder can cause others a lot of T-S: Traumatic Stress - Some of which may need a Trauma Center. Or maybe even T-S-D: Traumatic-Stress-Death.

(And if such a place employed a person who was human above the front legs, and horse for all the legs back to the tail... Would they be the Trauma Center's Centaur?)

Bouncing ...

"I only have eyes for you" to:

"I'z only gots I'z for you" to:

"Izzy", Pronounced "EYE-zee". Or "IZ-ee" (rhymes with "is he").
-
Super Hero support creatures, especially Healers, need Code Names and Secret, Civilian Identities.

So Izzy maybe can use Yazzie for both names.

To which, I can only say Yazzie!

Now, having inflicted (more than?) enough damage, I will stop channeling the Trickster, and return you Mundane Reality.
...
No! Wait!!

I >like< you. Dumping you into Reality is just too mean. Anyhow, happy landings somewhere.
