Hubbard

Elongated orange gourd

Hubbard appears most often as a surname.

A Hubbard squash is a large winter squash with a hard, bumpy shell—blue-gray, green, or orange—and sweet orange flesh: We roasted a Hubbard squash for Thanksgiving.

Old Mother Hubbard is a nursery rhyme character whose cupboard was bare; the name sometimes describes someone with an empty pantry or, as a noun, a loose-fitting women's cloak or housedress.
