Winnie The Pooh

Do not ask how Hailey and I got on this topic because I have no idea. (:

Why is the show Winnie the Pooh called Winnie the Pooh?!
I mean seriously, think about it.
You will find that it makes ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE!
I mean Winnie the Pooh..
So his name is Winnie.. and he is a Pooh? What is a Pooh?!
And if his name is Winnie.. then why is he called Pooh in the show?
And where the heck did Winnie come from?!
These are the questions that haunt me..
Hailey and I are going to go to our debate teacher and request that this be added as a debate topic as it can be very controversial.
And no one knows the real answer to why the title is Winnie the Pooh.
So, if you have an opinion then please comment.
We would love to hear how you feel about this.
Thanks!
