what are elf on the shelf names

The Elf on the Shelf is a toy given as a gift, often during the Christmas season, that comes with a book that tells a story about how the elf works for Santa. The elf is supposed to report back to Santa every night to tell him what the children have been doing. Some parents give their elf a name, such as Buddy, Elfie, or Snowflake, but it's not required. Some parents also choose to give their elf a different name each year.
