Wenlock - London 2012

Wenlock was created from the last drop of British steel used for the London 2012 Olympic Stadium. That‟s why he is so shiny. His name is inspired by Much Wenlock in Shropshire, a town where "Much Wenlock Games" were held. The light on his head is inspired by the lights on London‟s iconic black taxis. The shape of the front of his head is identical to the shape of the Olympic Stadium roof. His eye is a camera lens, capturing everything he sees. The three points on his head represent the places on the podium where successful athletes stand to receive their medals.

2012年伦敦奥运会的吉祥物文洛克，使用名字来源于马齐·文洛克的施罗普希尔村。在那里，曾经举办过文洛克奥林匹克运动会。而这项古老的赛事正是现代奥运之父顾拜旦创造现代奥林匹克运动会的灵感来源地之一。为了纪念文洛克奥林匹克运动会，伦敦奥运会决定将吉祥物命名为“文洛克”。

文洛克头上的黄灯代表了具有标志性意义的伦敦出租车，而手上则戴着代表友谊的奥林匹克手链。
