Izzy
Izzy was the official mascot of the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. The character was originally named Whatizit, which means "What is it?", and was introduced at the close of the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona. Izzy was a departure from the Olympic tradition in that it did not represent a nationally significant animal or human figure. Instead, Izzy was an animated character with the ability to morph into different forms. This made Izzy a fun and exciting mascot that appealed to people of all ages.
