Grinch was the scientist, but the character commonly called “The Grinch” is really Grinch’s monster, created by Grinch.

Not many realize that Grinch the scientist is the actual monster of the story

Or maybe he's like the Hulk and turns back into a regular Who when he's in a better mood?

Is that why he’s naked? His regular clothes are too small when he grinches out?

Too large by three sizes. His transformations start with the heart.

This theory is making more and more sense. Which also implies there's no Who Tony Stark to make him the uber-stretchy pants.

He doesn't like Christmas because that's when he turns into the monster.
