Why Teddy is called teddy?

History of Teddy Bear

Here is the story about Teddys name :

Michtom owned a small gift & candy store in New York, and made toy bears for sale.

Michtom sent President Theodore Roosevelt a bear and asked permission to name the bear after him. Roosevelt said yes. President Theodore Roosevelt

Who is Roosevelt?Why was the bear named after him?President Theodore Roosevelts nickname was "Teddy".

He is the 26th President of USA.

Once during a bear hunting trip, Teddy has not catch any bear yet. His helpers helped him by tying a Black Bear to a tree. They called Teddy and suggested that he shoot it. He wont kill it.

The journalist drew the cartoon and published it in the newspaper. 15Teddy Roosevelt on a bear hunting trip

So I think the story about the Bear Hunting made the toymaker ask the President.

AND TEDDY is a very cute name.

I think hunting animals for fun is mean but it is something that people do (even today).
