What does Muffin mean?

Muffin is the everyday word for a small, bread-like cake, usually baked in individual portions and often sweetened. The word's own history is murky, with possible roots in French or German bakery terms, but no single origin is confirmed.

Muffin is soft and cozy, a name that sounds like a hug. It suits a small, round, huggable pet, the kind you want to scoop up the second you see them.
