I didn’t know what to call the owl thing in Monster Hunter: Rise and was like “Fuck I dunno uhhhhhhhh Soup sounds good”. So that’s that haha

Soup was the name of the secondary main character in a series written by Robert Newton Peck. The first book shared the name of the deuteragonist. I haven't read them since I was in 1st or 2nd grade, but they were amusing at the time. Kind of a more modern (this would have been at the tail end of the '80s when I was reading them) Tom Sawyer.
