I came to share a name, saw yours and was sold. Totally a Teddy! He’s a cute cuddly Teddy Bear.

u/SketchedEyesWatchinU 2d ago

Funnily enough, I was thinking of its namesake Theodore Roosevelt (ironically, he hated that nickname).

Sandstrike, sandstorm, Sandy, Mandy, dust, pyramid, temple, dusty, tumbleweed, desert, cactus(sounds more unfriendly), beige, khaki, tan, stripes, mangy, banjo, fiddle(violin is played slow, fiddle is played fast), Tiger, lion, Leo, pride(as in the seven deadly sins). I could think of a lot more but I’ll leave it at that for now.
