It’s all Grek to me?
I vote for Blurk.
Gurg?
Glurg?
Nurn?
Nurl?
If you’re making this for commercial release, don’t call it “Claymation”. That’s a registered trademark owned by Will Vinton Productions. The generic term is “clay animation”.
Well don’t keep us in suspense, what name did you choose?
Ranchoth’s offer was impossible to refuse. Blup it is.
I would like to use some of the others for subsequent episodes - in fact, the format pretty much makes new character names essential.
Thanks for this - I think I had already been told that once before, but had forgotten it. That will be why so many people call their efforts ‘klaymation’
Well… (wow - this is going to be an anticlimax for some, possibly all parties)
Here it is:

It’s flawed in many ways, but that’s just room for future improvement, eh?
Very cute!
(I can’t believe you succumbed to Ranchoth’s threats, though.)
The next one might very well be called Blurk.
If you get something rounder, call it Ugg. In memory.
Hehehehe. That was funny! 
That was very funny. I loved the music. How did you make the fire?
The candle flame is real - the flame on the match was added by hand to each frame in a photo editing program - easier than it sounds - I used Ulead PhotoImpact, which has presets for effects like lens flare and fireworks - so I just created one for flame and repeated it, with a few changes on each frame.
The animation is only about 10 frames per second, so it’s not too onerous a task.
I don’t care what anyone says, your “after the kiwi fruit” video effin’ tore me up.
Thanks everyone!
Just a suggestion, but I think you might do better with a different color of clay. 
It’s walking! …poo!
Hehe, yes. The original character concept was my daughter’s - she wanted to call it ‘mud man’, but I believe this could be mistaken as a racist epithet. So we kept the mud and changed the name. Next one will be a different colour, and will come to harm in a different way.
Cute. It’s amazing what some people can do when they put their minds to it.
I know I said the next one might be called Blurk, but that was too similar to Blup (I’ll use it in future, though). So the next one is called Grek (Thanks Kat)
Awesome! I named a little clay guy!
Am I famous now?
