There's a tweet on the official RuneScape profile saying that on September 14th we'll get a refreshment of the Penguin D&D, including the adorable new pet.

However, we already have a pet named Sheldon (That annoying imp carrying a box of eggs that got released shortly after archaeology).

Which begs the question, should this name be changed?

In my opinion, this was a wasted opportunity to name it Pingu.

Hey, it has been named Sheldon after the penguin in Some Like it Cold. There's also some additional dialogue with Chuck once you've unlocked it to tie it together a bit more.

We spotted there were 2 Sheldon pets already so tweaked the names in the interface to make it clearer by stating if it's the imp or penguin.
