I have a great many stuffed animals, but Mr whales is one of the larges and most useful (as a firm pillow, or for hitting people over the head with, etc.) so he is the only one currently outside my closet.
As a rule, I've noticed that all my stuffed animals either have very unusual names, usually pertaining to food, (ie: French toast, who is a white rabbit in a ping Easter jumper), or they're a bit blatantly obvious (ie. Mr Bats, Big Dolphin, Brown Bunny). The latest additions to my collection lately though, have received somewhat more interesting, and complete names. Like Jeffery Sheldon Turtlefoot (who if you couldn't guess is a stuffed turtle.)
It used to just be big whale, and then Mr. Whale. But a year or two ago, my brother and his friend decided to spend a day referring to everything as "Steven". I eventually had to break up a fight between them by hitting them with the whale, so he was introduced into the situation.
I decided I liked the name and it's stuck.
Thankfully, he is one of only two stuffed animals that still retain the name Steven from that day. The other is a large stuffed Squirtle plushie. XD

Good to know that I'm not the only one with named stuffed animals. My collection's been declining very rapidly over the last few years though and I'm down to the stuffed rabbit (very creatively named "Bunny II") and the three large dogs: Mopsy, Yomiko, and Wrinkles.

Lovely scarf, nice job! I especially like the whale picture... actually reminds me a bit of a picture I took of my cat with my Doctor Who scarf, though in that case it was a real animal and wasn't quite as willing to pose for the picture ;D

My cat just died last week, but I wish I would have thought of that before.
