“Gobble” and “Waddle” Win White House Naming Poll for Thanksgiving Turkeys

Americans have chosen “Gobble” and “Waddle” as the official names of this year’s Thanksgiving turkeys in the first lady’s online poll ahead of President Donald Trump’s annual White House turkey pardon ceremony.

The popular turkey naming poll involved thousands of Americans casting votes to select the pair that will receive the ceremonial pardon, sparing them from the Thanksgiving table.

President Trump will conduct the tradition in a public ceremony, joined by the first lady and key officials, celebrating the spirit of gratitude and mercy that marks the holiday.

The playful poll, hosted by the first lady on social media, sparked lively engagement from families nationwide.

“Gobble” and “Waddle” won by a landslide, reflecting both the classic association of turkeys with Thanksgiving and a lighthearted approach to the celebration.

At the upcoming White House event, President Trump will officially pardon both birds, ensuring their place in history alongside past famously named turkeys.

The occasion draws attention each year as a symbol of abundance and American tradition.
