We are doing secret santa at work and the person I got loves ballet. I am close to this person so I know kinda what they like. Basicly I am going to get a Build-A-Bear and dress it up in the pink ballet outfit. but I have no clue what to name the bear. I don't really know much about ballet (I'm a musical girl) so I need help comming up with a name for a ballerina bear.
Any suggestions?

You're seriously going to buy a balletomane a stuffed animal? Hrrm. I strongly advise you to change your mind and consider some of the following instead:
- one (or two) tickets to a local ballet company performance
- a DVD of a ballet performance (these are from just $11 for Balanchine's _Nutcracker_ on Amazon.com and range to about $28; others I recommend are Balanchine's _Jewels_, The Royal Ballet's _The Firebird_, American Ballet Theatre's _Swan Lake_, _Esmeralda_, _Sleeping Beauty_, ABT's _The Dream_, _La Sylphide_)
- a ballet movie (_The Company_ starring Neve Campbell; _The Red Shoes_ starring Moira Shearer; _The Dancer_; _Tony Palmer's Film About Margot Fonteyn_; _Balles Russes_)
- a ballet appreciator's book (_The Ballet Companion_ by Eliza Gaynor Minden; _The Ballet Book_ from ABT; _Round About the Ballet_ by William Cubberley)
- a ballet photo book (_The Royal Ballet in House_, _Ballet: An Illustrated History_ by Mary Clarke)
- a 2007 Lois Greenfield _Breaking Bounds_ calendar of dance photography
- a ballet poster from the New York City Ballet website or AllPosters.com or Art.com
- a $12 year's subscription to _Dance Spirit_ or _Pointe_ magazine
