HelpRe: Bess (eta)
in reply to a message by Bear
I have never heard of an Elsa cow!
Though, Bessie the cow is a staple of my childhood.
I do like the name though, I and I love the combination of Eleanor Bess you poffered.
Rex is a dinosaur name to me... never even paused to think "dog". Must be a regional association.

Elsa the cow was a mascot for the Borden Dairy company. Not sure if they still use it. Growing up I associated Else with the lioness in "Born Free." Plus, nn Elsie is so cute. I used to watch a log of Old Hollywood movies and if there was a female Cockney in one they always called her Elsie. It used to make this little name-nerd so irritated that everyone else (here in the U.S. at least) thought of it *only* as a cow's name. I love cows so even that reference didn't deter me in my campaign to bring back the name. Then with one stroke of a computer Disney brought the name back. Yay, Disney!
Glad you still like Bessie, even with the cow reference. And thanks for loving Eleanor Bess. I get the dinosaur connection to Rex. Hey, if I get one out of two on Elsa / Rex I'm above par. Thanks for the feedback! :0)
