Toronto Zoo Asking You To Help Name Baby Polar Bear

We share a lot of random cuteness with you on RiverGrandRapids.com.  Dogs, cats, ducks ... if it's an animal, we love it (mostly).

That carries to polar bears, too!

The Toronto Zoo is home to a baby polar bear. He's finally old enough for the public to seem him on a regular basis and he needs a name!  Zoo staff picked their top six names, and now YOU get to vote for your favorite!

• Humphrey: It means Peaceful Warrior. The name was derived from the Germanic elements hun, which means bear cub, and frid, which means peace.
• Orson: Latin for bear.
• James: In honor of James Bay. Another cub was named Hudson after Hudson’s Bay and is this cub’s brother.
• Lorek: Comes from the movie Golden Compass. Lorek comes from the word laurel, which is a symbol of victory.
• Searik: Inuit for beautiful.
• Stirling: Means genuine, high quality, and pure.
