Surface Forms

Snuggie main

Morphology

Snuggie = snug (semi-transparent) = snug + ie

The brand name is clearly built from 'snug' with the brandable/diminutive suffix '-ie', so the connection to coziness is clear even though the specific product form is a marketed invention.

Etymology

Snuggie as a brand name was made from the same idea: snug 'comfortable and warm' with the friendly -ie ending. So the brand name promises a cozy blanket with sleeves.
