Article claims that Beanaby is a portmanteau of Beanie Baby, and on Feb 13 was tagged need-to-verify. Google turns up no hits for beanaby other than WP mirrors, and eBay has none for sale.
I think that redirect is inappropriate because the name is not in usage and could eventually be trademarked by somebody else. Sympleko 10:56, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)

- Delete It's pretty easy to make a shorter form of a common word (try a Google for "sgetti" for example). But that hardly qualifies it as a new word and certainly wouldn't be article-worthy even if widespread, which this isn't. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 20:22, May 2, 2005 (UTC)
