Chicken Names?

Haven't named them all, just the ones we raised ourselves. So far:

Cinnamon
Sugar
Sweetie
Honey
Ginger
Nutmeg
Licorice
Spice

I can't name anymore until I'm sure which ones are roos and which aren't. So far we have about 3 roos that we'd like to keep but won't be possible.
 
Layla - After the Derek and the Dominos song, a Buff Orpington chick that I hope gives me nice eggs! I had another chick that I wanted to name Lola after the Kinks song, but since Lola was a transvestite in the song I was afraid that she would turn out to be a rooster!!

I don't name all my chickens, just the ones that earn one. I had recently sold 23 of my chickens. Out of those 23 only3 had names. I have 11 still and only 4 have names. I'm working on naming my EE roo. He has yet to aquire one. I kep calling him pretty boy and he answers to it but I'd prefer a better name. I'm sure he'll earn his. Out of the 4 I have a young EE hen that I named Spike becaue of the feathers sticking out the side of her head, I have Lucky another young hen that recently got injured very badly and she pulled through with flying colors. Then there are my Silver Phoenix (american onagadori) Sir Charles and Fiona which I bought from Tommy's Pet Paradise. I felt they deserved names of royalty because they just look like a bird that royalty would have. I have another young one that is in between chick and young hen, she is a lavender orphington and she wants to be friendly but she's not sure yet and she is watcher over the smaller chicks in the pen. There is a lavender splash cochin bantam, a black New England bantam and a silkie/aracuna mix. Then I have 2 younger chicks still in the house that are silkie/aracuna. All no name.
 
Most of ours are young and I can't yet tell them apart. They are changing so fast! I hope I'll be able to recognize them as they get older.

We do have Bob, the buff plymouth rock hopefully pullet named by my 5 year old:

And Epstein, our cross beak buff silkie:

Then we have our game hen and rooster, Super Rooster and Henrietta, named by our 7 year old:

We have one Buff Orpington we call Lucille. She always wants to hop onto our shoulders. And our white easter egger is called "Sister" by our boys. I dunno why.

No - it is the drawer from an old refrigerator. It is enameled tin and says "FRUIT" on the front. We think it is kind of funny.
