It recently came to our attention there’s a Name of the Year Award, with the 2020 winner going to the brilliance of Mathdaniel Squirrel. Now that is a name!
But there are plenty of other names in the world. So, let’s consider them today as we celebrate the very best of them.
Name of the Year 2020
Mr. Squirrel won out over many other competitors in 2020. But there was seriously stiff competition! Check out some of these corkers:
- Kermit Quisenberry
- Hannah Moody-Goo
- Kokain Mothershed
- Courvoisier Dingle
- Beanbag Amerika
- Adonis Expose
- Bluebell Eikonoklastes
- Fatjon Cake
- Zebulon Vermillion
- Rod McQuality
Mr. Squirrel blitzed through the competition to make it to the final against Courvoisier Dingle. Sadly for the latter, the power of the squirrel won out. There’s always next year!
It was a public vote over Twitter, with Mr. Squirrel claiming 56.8% of the 6,102 votes on May 3rd, 2020.
Who is the 2020 Name of the Year?
1 Mathdaniel Squirrel or 14 Courvoisier Dingle

Mr. Dingle can take serious consolation in the knowledge it was a close fought contest.
Anyway, we soon discovered there are also previous winners of this glorious event. Behold:
- Shamus Beaglehole
- Vanilla Dong
- Taco B.M. Monster
And this got us thinking… why don’t we invent some great names for the people of the world to take advantage of? Here we go!

Mathdaniel Squirrel sounds like the name of a squirrel mascot of a math-teaching game, sort of like Number Munchers. Now that was a game. Loaded on all the Apple IIe machines at my grade school along with Oregon Trail. Kids today deserve a classic like Mathdaniel Squirrel.
However, if I’d known about this contest, I would have gone for Courvoisier Dingle no question.

Mr. Dingle will no doubt be delighted with your preference!
I kept spelling Mathdaniel as Methdaniel and had to update the post. All those years of watching Breaking Bad caught up with me.
