Hm, I wanted to check your profile for your age because you don't mention it but when I was a kid in the mid-90s there was this children's program called
Allegra's Window about a puppet named
Allegra - so I'm used to it and wouldn't be surprised to see it used personally, and I wouldn't think other people who've seen the show would be either... so, yes, I think it's definitely usable and not too weird at all :-)

I first heard of rutabegas from this show (had no idea what they were till then)! lol
