Cast Your Vote Finals: Name for Mendel's Wombat

[Mendel]

Thank you everyone for your name submittals for my Wombat. The judges have selected the following names for the finals. Please cast your vote:

1. Gregor (as in Gregor Mendel, the father of genetics)
2. Jenneke (as in the lovely Australian hurdler, Michelle Jenneke)
3. Wendell (rhymes nicely with Mendel)
4. Sydney (as in Australia)
5. Womble (loved the whimsical you tube video)
6. Wilford (as in actor, Wilford Brimley)

I have been waiting paitiently all week for the finals

I hope its Wendell!

[Intrigued]

I hope it's Wendell too. But Mendel, are you sure you don't need some more wombats?

[SalvadorMontenegro]

Vote Wendell 2012: The right name for a wombat, the right choice for America (and/or the country you live in if it's not America).

[Legion]

I vote for Womble, but only because I liked watching the Wombles on TV as a kid.

[commanderkeen]

Should be Wendel with only one L.

Still voted Wilford cause he is hilarious.

[maxman]

well I voted for Sydney because I would call him Sid.

I thought the Gregor was for Gregor Samsa as in "Gregor Samsa awoke one morning from restless dreams to find he had transformed into a Wombat."

But enough of this foolishness Mendel. Once your wombat is named, then he is no longer hors de combat and can be called out to defend himself. Tell him that Sabine awaits and she is not pleased with the wombat-centric nature of B&B the last few days:

"Ask not what your Wombat can do for you, ask what you can do for your Wombat."

Between guitars and shaving stuff, I have enough AD issues...I will not succumb to WAD...Wombat Acquisition Disorder.

[SalvadorMontenegro]

This just in from Reuters:

Wendell promises to eliminate sales tax and shipping fees on all shaving related online purchases!

Response from Gregor: "I've always thought shaving was a pretty stupid activity, anyway. Removing hair from your face! Wow! Big @#$% deal!"

Wendell 2012!

2. Jenneke (as in the lovely Australian hurdler, Michelle Jenneke)

Forget gender and please cast your vote for the name that is most fitting. The wombat is Australian and so is Michelle Jenneke. Wilford Brimley sort of looks like a walrus , perhaps a wombat. And strong cases can be built for the other names as well.

[Mendel]

Thank you everyone for voting. The poll is now closed. The official name for Mendel's wombat is:

Wendell

[joshua1970]

this doesn't mean we won't be seeing more of the lovely Ms Jenneke does it??

[Doc4]

Every other hurdler's boyfriend ...

"Of course I'll come and cheer you on at your race this weekend, babe. ... um, the Australian team is competing too, right?"
