What Wikipedia says

A roly-poly toy (also called a roly-poly doll, round-bottomed doll, tilting doll, tumbler, wobbly man, wobble doll, or Kelly) is a round-bottomed toy, usually egg-shaped, that tends to right itself when pushed at an angle, and does this in seeming contradiction to how it should fall.
