Has anyone thought about what makes #teddy a #bear?

Seriously it is just repetition and conditioning that makes us jump to "#teddybear"? Why are there no #teddyCats and #teddyDogs? Can we not have cute lil #TeddyBoars, and #TeddyRoos?

We have never heard anyone name a bear Theodore. Are we being taken for absolute fools here?

Why does the bear have this monopoly'?
