"Corpse Bride" is another movie that includes skeletons with fun names, such as Bonejangles and Elder Gutknecht. Furthermore, the TV show "SpongeBob SquarePants" has an episode featuring a skeleton with an interesting name: Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen.
Since the Medieval era, people have used animated skeletons as personifications of death. Although most of the animated skeletons depicted in art, literature and film have human forms, some have the forms of animals or creatures from other worlds.
