Ok, that is also v. cool Dragon,
having resolved the original question ('Puff' is good) via the power of PH, any other cool dragons/mythical beasts for tots lurking around?

Mrs Sportidge and I found this at a charity shop the other day.

Apparently, it's "Monstrous Nightmare" from How To Train Your Dragon 2.

We bought it. We have no kids, it's for me.....

Why are you even asking this question?

If it offends the PC Brigade, you're on a winner.

Holy haemorrhoids...who did you kill to get those teeth?

If you're worried, which you shouldn't be, call it Idris.

WTF? That's a child snatchers toy!

The OP's Mrs is obviously an evil woman. That "thing" would scare the bejaysus out of me.

Speaking of "Puff the Magic Dragon", this is my favourite connotation of the name -

Nothing wrong with Puff OP. It's not the most offensive drug reference.

That said if you get a second one, calling it Crackwh*re may be a little unnecessary.

If you think Puff is unsafe, call it Diane Abbott.

[TwigtheWonderkid]

Call it Enta.

Enta the dragon.

Puff is fine, poof on the other hand, well that's the word you're thinking of with the bad connotations.

I think you may have slightly wrong

Tell him to put his feet up and stop worrying...

The red one needs to be called Idris as he's the right colour.

My daughter got a unicorn recently she calls Horney (and she like to ride him).

I wouldn't mind but she's 26.

She wouldnt happen to be single would she?

My oldest has a stuffed furby (without the electronic gubbins thankfully) which went by "whackjob" (mafkees actually, for you dutchies) for quite a while.

Ruff...?

Does that dragon have a partial developed conjoined twin on its back?

So- SWMBO's aunt has made the most awesome cuddly dragon for our 6 month old little boy.

Here's the little fella here.. (dragon - not our boy!)



Looking at it, the first name that came into both our heads for him was 'Puff'.

However, given the connotations of Puff and Magic Dragons etc, is it wrong to call him Puff?
Clearly our little one will have no idea of these for a long time, however

Part of me thinks we should any way

Answers on a postcard...(or alternative name suggestions)

Looks more like a Gary to me....

You could sprinkle it with glitter?
