Why confuse the kids?

My 2 year old daughter loves Dora the Explorer. It was Diego, Diego, Diego and now it is Dora, Dora, Dora. Dora has a monkey friend named Boots. Why would the makers of a kids cartoon name an animal Boots? We've just taught her that boots are the items she wears to the beach or to the park when the grass is wet.

How do you explain to a 2 year old that Boots is also a cartoon monkey?! Could he not have been called Monzo? Monzo the monkey has a good ring to it!
