Mine is Earth. I list Pluto as an option because it has been a planet longer than the new classification scheme has been around.

Why Earth? Earth is my hometown, I dare you to find cockatiels anywhere else; they are my favorite birds and I have a whole flock of them on my shoulders right now.

Eris could be considered a planet if you like, but so could my can of Dr Pepper if I were to define it properly to fit.

It may be larger than pluto, but pluto is closer and has less angular difference from the ecliptic. Eris is a Kuiper belt object, not really a planet.

Awesome.

You included Pluto.

My favourite planet is Pluto. 134340 Pluto.

Why it is my favourite planet:

There is no definite reason as to why it's my favourite planet, it's just the first planet I read about as a child.
