Droopy is the name of a cartoon dog created in 1943 by Tex Avery and featured in a number of animated short movies produced by the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer cartoon studio. Originally he did not have a name and was then called Happy Hound before being named Droopy in 1949.
Droopy's meek, deadpan voice and personality were modeled after the character Wallace Wimple on the radio comedy Fibber McGee and Molly; actor Bill Thompson, who played Wimple, was the original voice of Droopy.

Onesie comes from the word "one" and means a one-piece suit, usually in the form you use for lazy days at home. It is also used for one-piece snowsuits and one-piece motorcycle suits. The word is sometimes spelled onesy.
The name may be derived from the registered trademark Onesies®, which is a range of clothes for infant children. The word onesie (in singular) does however, in modern usage, more often mean a suit in adult size.
