We have many chickens that are names but one to point out I have a blue silkie (the picture for my profile pic) and her name is Sweety which totally fits her: she's very, very sweet not only to me but the other chickens too.

I name my pets after my ancestors. I don't know why, I just do.

I have Grace (Gracie) Zerilda and Elizabeth (Liza) Bellinda - my newly adopted chickens
I also have two cats: Sister Margaret (Sister) and Tonk, her brother.
One oscar fish - who was formerly known as Hank. After my grandfather Henry until he laid eggs (the fish - not grandpa!) so I changed her name to my grandma's. Gretchen a.ka. Dammit. We refer to her as dammit more often than Gretchen because she's always destroying things! Her favorite hobby is ripping the intake off the canister filter ... Dammit!
I also have a bunch of crows, jays and squirrels that hang around begging for more peanuts. I can't tell them apart besides species, so I named them all Pest

And yes, I do talk to them A very bad habit I sometimes forget to stifle when we have human company lol
