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

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:

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!

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.
