I like iceberg because all the candy ones most likely won't go

Call it the starfish nebula. Or perhaps the kite nebula. Or maybe the box kite nebula.

NG7027 should be called the Pillowcase

To me the Nebula could be named the Cloud Nebula or the Cumulus Nebula and going a bit farther in imagination the Cauliflower Nebula

[tonygold]

when I first looked I thought of a wolf's head, but now it looks like a dumpling or a Pieróg.

[KMG]

First thing I thought is PILLOW. I'm glad I'm not alone!

[De0den]

Casper the Ghost

[LindaC]

Marshmallow Nebulae. It looks like a toasted marshmallow to me.

With this particular image, definitely Cotton Candy Nebula was the only thing that came to mind.

I would call it, the "Pillow Nebula", on account of the fact that is has four corners and looks to be very fluffy.
