    I proffer SMURK which combines an element of the somewhat-likeness to those popular marketing/cartoonish creatures of yore (70s?) and the sound of that similar word describing the knowing grin of satisfaction derived from thoroughly rewarding experience at TONIK.

    I think the Tonik guy should be named ‘ Surferworld’ because it kinda sounds like surfs the world because he can be seen everywhere he surfs the nation like he goes everywhere. I’ve even see tonik guy in Northen Teritory!

    He reminds me of a drop of water (like one from the wake of a board -fast moving!), plus he’s a ‘one-eyed’ fan of Tonik ;-) , like me!
    I shall name him ‘Eyedrop’…(he likes to ‘drop in’ from time to time too!)

    I think its name should be called Blue Drop be coz his original colour is blue. And it looks like he loves spending time in drops of water.
