Find A Name For Hen Or Cock

Hello,

 

What name did you give to your firends ?

I thought to give a name with some sounds that budgies love... I've heard they love words with : k, tch, h, ch, c

thank you

I currently have 11 adult budgies (one unnamed as yet) and 5 babies (two unnamed still) and three weeros (cockatiels). None of mine talk, but they are called:

Girls: Speedo, Gilbert (not my idea!), Nutty, Banana, Bubble

Boys: Barty, Olly, Tufty, Gimp (he has a broken/deformed leg) and Obelix

Weeros (all boys): Carrot, Peaches, Rosie (thought he was a girl :/ )

 

In the past I have had budgies with these names (these are the ones I can remember off the top of my head):

Sunshine, Blanc, Spots, Whiteny, Goldie, Mountain, Pippin, Wonka, Sharpie, Blueboy, Fred, Patches, Smudge, Houdini, Skye, Tex, Grey, Alfalfa, Bluebell, Snowbell, Princess, Sunset, Boof, Bobo, Hansel, Gretel, Merry, Scruff, Columbus, Violet, Hedwig, Squeak, Lily, Lionel, Star, Perry, Mango

 

Just a few!

Such a lovely list SunshineE. Mine are Charlie, Noah, Allie, Emerald, Loki, and Sunny. But there are so many good names in SunshineE's post.

We try and wait to name them until they show a personality trait that prompts an idea. It can give some fun ones!

 

For instance:

Barty is short for Bartlett which was the name of the lead escape planner in The Great Escape because he was so small as a baby he kept escaping by slipping through the bars of the cage we were using!

Pippin was named after a character in The Lord of the Rings because he never stopped eating like that character

Wonka was a twin who was deformed in the egg from lack of space and his hips and tail literally faced 90 degrees to the rest of his body

Sharpie was scalped as a baby and rejected by her mum so she is named after the bald rugby player Nathan Sharpe

 

Have some fun with them, it is the best part bout getting a new bird, getting to know them and choosing a name that reflects them :)
