[Winnie The Pooh] Why do they refer to him by his species instead of his name?

Is "Pooh" some sort of title, or military rank?

Much like Finn the Human from Adventure Time, there is only one known Pooh. Thus, it's used as a title as well as identifying what he is. He is a bear, but he's of the subspecies Pooh, of which he is the only known example. Hence why Christopher Robin calls him Pooh Bear. If Winnie were a black bear or a polar bear, he'd call him that. Winnie is, however, a Pooh Bear.
