Moomintroll (Swedish: Mumintrollet) is the main character in the Moomin books by Tove Jansson. He lives in the Moominhouse together with his father Moominpappa and his mother Moominmamma and has a keen spirit of adventure. Moomintroll is a 'moomin' - a little white troll with a hippopotamus-like big round nose.
His best friend is Snufkin, though he has other friends, including Sniff and Little My. It is hinted many times that he is in love with the Snork Maiden.
The asteroid 58345 Moomintroll was named in his honour.
