One camel, three names in the running, and a hearing error that won. Here is how the mascot of Drome got his name - and how his portrait kept changing along the way.
The obvious candidate - every cartoon camel is a Humphrey, the pun writes itself (hump). It came in second.
Short for dromedary, the one-humped camel. It named the app, and the camel almost took it too - one name for both.
Sarah misheard "Drome" as "Jerome" and loved it. The rhyme keeps the brand link, and the primary user naming the mascot beat one-name purity. Decided July 5, 2026. Filling Jerome is using Drome.
Four takes on Jerome's portrait, at the same water level for a fair comparison.
