Bob Iger knows the name of “Baby Yoda” and he’s not telling!

So immature. He's being a big poopy-head. A GALAXY FAR, FAR AWAY -- In a recent appearance on The Star Wars Show, Disney Chairman/CEO/Weekend Custodian Bob Iger teased that he knows the name of "The Child," aka "Baby Yoda", from the failed Disney+ series, The Mandalorian. When pressed to share the name, Iger simply stuck out his tongue and then chanted over and over, "I'm not going to tell you. I'm not going to tell you, nanny nanny boo boo, stick your ...

"Space Hill" just doesn't have the same ring to it. ORLANDO, FL -- What's in a name? Well, for Space Mountain, and perhaps the other "Disney Mountains," quite a bit!
