My first thought was toasted marshmallow, but I also thought pillow. Seeing the different filter versions, it looks like it has a pillow inside the outer parts.

So I vote for Pillowcase Nebula.

It looks like something Davy Crockett or Daniel Boone would nail to the side of their cabins, a 'PELT'.

looks like a 3D pillow, or perhaps a clump of sheep wool.

I'd definitely go with Iceberg nebula too (that's what it looks like to me as well) ... although "Fluffy Cotton Candy Captcha Nebula" isn't bad either : D
