Please name us, kind sirs and madams!

So I realized that, while our esteemed main logo/mascot has had the name Sophia since time immemorial, our buddies in the top-left corner of Forum pages don't have names at all. Obviously there is only one person to blame, namely MoneySign. This is a problem, so make suggestions and vote on two new names (go ahead and vote on all the ones you like), and mahna-mahna (do doo do do do). —rc (t) 02:29, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Spuddy Buddy on the right

• I have a better idea now. I live in NORTH Idaho. We hate being associated with potatoes. We don’t grow potatoes. They grow them in southern Idaho. We live in the Pacific Time zone. They live in Mountain Time, both the time zone and the mental state of thinking like mountain men and other white people of that era. Southern Idaho is northern Utah. North Idaho has more in common with Seattle and western Canada. The official state motto is “The Gem State” but due to the lobbying of the richest man in Idaho, Mr. Simplot (not that being the richest man in Idaho is any real accomplishment) the license plates say “Famous Potatoes”. Bad Idaho potato symbolism saps my will to live. As you can see, the official Idaho Potato Commission mascot is giving the Nazi salute and has no pants, so Spuddy Buddy would be the perfect name for the potato on the far right.
