It looks like it has 4 legs spread out and a tail, like it's gliding. So I think it should be called... "Rocky"

The cross is reminiscent of a starfish, but one with a cloud on top.

Cloud starfish? Cloudfish?

This looks like a sheep's fleece. So how about:- The Fleece Nebula

Mount Rushmore Nebula, that's what I'd call it. It looks like three silhouettes of faces looking left.

Yes, the nebula DOES look like a pillow but since that has been suggested a number of times I'll go with my second choice: Sleeping Bag Nebula.

The brain is a pattern-making organ so I also see a scowling man's face on the right side of the nebula. He has deep set eyes, prominent brow ridges, a highlighted nose, is mostly bald, and has a full beard and mustache. He's wrapped up in a fluffy double sleeping bag and only his head is showing. (chuckle)
