Once there was an elephant, Who tried to use the telephant- No! no! I mean an elephone Who tried to use the telephone- (Dear me! I am not certain quite That even now I’ve got it right.)
Howe’er it was, he got his trunk Entangled in the telephunk: The more he tried to get it free, The louder buzzed the telephee- (I fear I’d better drop the song Of elephop and telephong!)
Oh, thank you for the comments, especially the poetry! I hadn't seen that poem in a long time. :) Ellie, Knitty, Herman... I'll have to run the suggestions by Phillip.

knitty?
My favourite stuffie growing up was an elephant also. He went by the very creative name of "Ellie." I still have him!
My vote is for "Herman".

Once there was an elephant,
Who tried to use the telephant-
No! no! I mean an elephone
Who tried to use the telephone-
(Dear me! I am not certain quite
That even now I’ve got it right.)
Howe’er it was, he got his trunk
Entangled in the telephunk:
The more he tried to get it free,
The louder buzzed the telephee-
(I fear I’d better drop the song
Of elephop and telephong!)
