Pumbaas

Pumbaas is a term that may appear in various informal contexts, but it does not denote a single widely recognized subject under its exact spelling. In popular culture discussions, it is most often encountered as a variant or misspelling related to the fictional character Pumbaa from Disney’s The Lion King. The canonical name of the character in the film and related media is Pumbaa, spelled with a double a at the end.

Because Pumbaas is not an established standalone entity, its uses outside this association are limited and informal. Some writers or fans may employ the spelling as a playful or stylistic variation, or it may appear as a surname or place name in unrelated, non-canon contexts. However, these uses are not widely documented in standard reference works and do not correspond to a distinct, recognized subject in their own right.

In official material from The Lion King franchise, the character remains Pumbaa, a jovial warthog who partners with Timon the meerkat. The name Pumbaa has therefore become the dominant reference, while Pumbaas serves primarily as a derivative or informal variant in discourse surrounding the character.
