A Correct answer
Explanation

The teddy bear was named after President Theodore Roosevelt in 1902 following a famous hunting trip where he refused to shoot a bear cub. The incident inspired a toy maker to create 'Teddy's Bear', which became wildly popular. Michelangelo and P.G. Wodehouse have no connection to teddy bears. The name directly honors Roosevelt's compassion in that hunting incident.
