Origin of Winnie the Pooh
Winnie-the-Pooh is one character as popular as any on the Disney platform, but most don’t know that he has a long history. He was named after World War 1 veteran Harry Cole Bennett, who wrote stories about the noble old bear he befriended in Canada’s Yukon Territory during his recovery from shellshock. Winnie made his literary debut as an unnamed character in a Canadian magazine in early 1915.
The bear soon became known as Pooh. The name comes from a swan named Pooh, which was owned by Cole’s friend Helen Carroll Moore, who had previously owned the swan that inspired AA Milne’s creation of Christopher Robin and his mother Margaret. Cole and Christopher Robin Milne served in the same regiment during World War 1. During their time in the trenches, Cole shared his collection of Pooh stories with Milne’s son, Christopher Robin. Inspired by these stories, Milne based his subsequent tales on his son and a bear named Pooh who was stuffed with fluff. Pooh first appeared as a character in Milne’s book Winnie-the-Pooh (1926).
