wuzzy

Indistinct and fluffy

Wuzzy appears almost exclusively in the nursery rhyme "Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear," where it exists purely for rhyme and playful repetition rather than independent meaning.

Outside this context, wuzzy occasionally surfaces as baby talk or affectionate nonsense, suggesting something soft or fuzzy: Who's my little wuzzy?
