Other naming suggestions:

     ~-         inchworm
                or cotton candy (on a stick)
     ~~         caterpillar
     "@{[]}"    cyclops (one eye with eyebrows,
mustache, and square mouth)
     -+-        cross-hair (or half cross-hair)
                or vanishing point (horizon line)
                or reticule
     ]->[       Frowning Sam (resembles the Muppet
named Sam the Eagle)
                Beaker (the nerdish Muppet with the
perpetual surprised look)
