Eeyore

Eeyore is a fictional character from the book series Winnie-the-Pooh. Eeyore spells his name “eoR”. He is a pessimistic, gloomy, old donkey who is a friend of Winnie the Pooh. Eeyore’s name is a phonetic representation of the donkey’s bray: an (onomatopoeia), possibly derived from the baby talk name for the animal.

Last night, my dinner companion held forth a combination of Eeyore, Prince of Darkness, and Man of Mystery. Hmmm.
