He named it the Doughboy because his father had been a much-decorated and underage soldier in WWI, and U.S. soldiers in WWI were known as as "Doughboys." http://www.worldwar1.com/dbc/origindb.htm Leo Burnett copywriter Rudy Perz has been credited with the Pillsbury Doughboy idea, but in fact it was my father-in-law Norman Kosarin's baby. Among other things, my wife, then age 9, clearly recalls her dad -- also a Leo Burnett employee and still with us thanks be -- creating the Doughboy figure in their kitchen. He never made a big thing of it, regarding it as part of his job. Quote
