A lot of people are going to go "he is green and gold, so name him ozzie" or some variation. Yes, he is green and gold, but to me, it is more of the green and gold we saw in the 70' and 80's, so I would go with a name that kind of comes from that era. As a little boy, you can name him after one of those great cricketers of that era, like DK Lillee, AB( Alan Border) or Boonie (David Boone), or even something like Retro. I actually like the name Retro. He has the whole hypercolour t-shirt thing going on, with him being blue but since he is a YF2, looking green. After thinking about it, I say Retro. Link to comment

Everytime I go to the shops I expect to see them on sale again... I hate 80's fashion!!!! Back on topic though, I'm not really good with names but I like Dave's idea of going with an 80's theme... maybe Boy George would be good :rofl: I really have no idea... Link to comment

Guest whit3tig3y Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I had a tough time naming my new feathered friends too! We decided we'd have a naming system for our future animals though! We have naming systems for computers, we use planets. But for the naming systems for our animals we've decided on the Phonetic alphabet. So I named the budgie I got yesterday Alpha Just some suggestions to try and find groups of things you can take names from. Link to comment
