Does anybody know what a person who brings rubber chickens to life would be called?

I'm going to have a guy in my story (I'm still working on Niggly Bop and the Quest for Toilet Paper) who is a sorceror who brings rubber chickens to life (and possibly moonlights by running a hot dog stand). What would be the appropriate word for a person who does that? Somehow I don't think I'll find a term for it in the dictionary. I was thinking about using the term gallurubmancer, but I'm not so sure about how that sounds. Anybody else have ideas?

If all else fails, just do what J. K. Rowling does: Make up a pun name for it that sounds like it could be Latin.

Hmm that might work. I often use anagram names for my characters maybe I could make an anagram name for the guy;s occupation.

I like the sound of that, Poon. Hmmm well that's what the guy who brings chicken's to life's occupation will be called, now to come up with a name. I think I'll name him Chuck, after the type of meat.

Mr Bumblesnicker!

MUAHAHAHA

poon.

that was my generic remark to everything that neal says... hehe

usually the conversation went something like this...

Neal: how are you?

Me: poony.

Neal: what's poony?

Me: like a poon.

Neal: what's a poon?

Me: poon.

Neal: what?

Me: poon?

Neal: what color is it?

Me: green.

Neal: what does it taste like?

Me: poon.

Neal: poo?

Me: no poon.

Neal: whatever.

Either that or I'd answer only in asking questions

only vaguely

That reminds me of a little piece of wisdom. Any question can be answered by the words yes, no, or duct tape.

Technically, a person who brings rubber chickens to life is a Synthetic Fowl Re-Animator.

No, that's not right, because the rubber chicken wasn't alive in the first place.

That's it, an Artificial Poultry Animator!

Hmmmm so he'd be an APA? Artificial Poultry Animator has the same initials as the American Psychological Association.
