I like Bear! It's a common name ("Bjørn") in Norwegian so I'm used to the connotation.
Can I tell my Fruit Stand name joke again? Oh please, lots of new readers here now... can I? Can I?

He was quite shy, and didn't react much when talked to, but lots of kids are shy in the beginning.
The day over, he was ready to take the school bus home, and the driver asked where he was going. Little Fruit Stand just looked at him and pointed at the card round his neck. The driver turned it over, and there on the other side, printed in neat letters, was the name "Anthony".Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin

I knew a kid in high school named Bear. He was a real sweetie and a hugger.
It's a good legacy to give to a boy.I can do five more miles.
