I have a couple from Le Creuset like this guy:
Apparently they call it a Spatula Spoon (boooring).
However, shopping.msn.com calls it a Spoon-Spat! That sounds…exciting.
ETA I go with Spoontula.
Wow. That’s a toughie. I can’t pick, at all. They’re both fabulous.
And this thread has me giggling like a loon. It’s truly the first I’ve ever shared with SpouseO.
However it’s spelled, I’ve read that it was invented by someone named Crandall.

I hear there’s a huge selection at Spoonula City

And good value too, owing to the price war with the store across the street - Spatuloon Barn.
I vote for ‘spatuloon’, for the simple reason that Rachel Ray has started using ‘spoonula’, presumably to stir her ‘stoop’ with.
Bah.
Spatuloon! It has a ring to it.
Husperson +1.
I vote for spatuloon.
One more vote for spatuloon. The “oontyoula” sound is too difficult to pronounce.
Sorry. I wanted to vote for a Doper but my heart just wouldn’t let me.

So, Dopers, which word do you prefer? Spoontula, or Spatuloon?
What other random items have you given crazy hybrid names to?
[/QUOTE]
Im not happy with either term, but I kind of like Spatuloop… a spatula/scoop.
As for hybrid names, in university I first bought a cheap set of dishes with soup plates in them, instead of the deeper bowls I was accustomed to. I started calling the soup plates plah-bowls. Still, to this day, I mentally call them that.
