Baby Yoda or not Baby Yoda?
The craze for Baby Yoda, with his huge eyes and green shade, started as soon as Disney+ dropped the web series in November. It became one of the most popular and lovable characters of 2019 within days. However, the original name of the character has not been revealed yet and Disney CEO Bob Iger said that he does not want people calling the character, referred as ‘The Child’ in the series, as Baby Yoda. According to Iger, initially, he tried to call the character Baby Yoda but was yelled at by producer Jon Favreau.
