I never actually tried to give names to my chickens. They just kinda adopted into the names.

Skeeter - The first actual named chicken, and my Alpha roo. I make a noise like "sksss sksss" when I want them to move out of my way. Unfortunately, Skeeter learned that it REALLY meant I was about to flip something or move something that might have bugs underneath! So when I made that sound, he get IN the way! So eventually I just extended the "sk" out to "skeeter". Now he gets all kinds of added names to it when I'm being silly like "Skeeter weeder" or "skeeter feeder". He's my proud Ameraucana.

Brownie - Quite literally a dark brown hen. She didn't really get her name until I moved in with my sister for a bit, and it stuck with the nieces and nephews. She's an Ameraucana.

Cookie - She looks like cookies and cream ice cream. Mostly white, with lots of black flecks. Also an Ameraucana.

Buddy - When buddy was growing up, all of her hatch mates were scared to death of interaction. They were free range right at about 6 weeks old. I actually thought Buddy was going to be a roo. And everytime I got near them, Buddy would come say hello and check out whatever I was doing. So I began to say "that's my little buddy there" and it stuck. Then Buddy turned out to be a hen! But we kept it anyway, since she had already gotten used to it. She's a very energetic easter egger

Karmel - A beautiful bright white easter egger with gold lacing! And she's in molt right now, so she looks NOTHING like her beautiful self, and I miss it! The gold lacing makes it look like Caramel drizzled over vanilla ice cream, so the nieces named her Karmel.

Leggy - A white leghorn who got her name simply from the name of her breed.

Coo - A white leghorn who likes to coo a lot! She's always the one making tiny noises when I'm around.

Trey, Sumi, Matra, Su-su, and Mimi - all Sumatras that got their names from their breed name. "Trey" comes from the end "tra" and he's the roo of the bunch. The other four are hens.

Phoenix - Currently my only phoenix breed, and he's a roo. He'll be getting some girls of his own kind in April, though.

Buffy/Pauly - Two buff polish hens. Unfortunately, Buffy was put down last night after a severe injury that she would likely never recover from, and Pauly was killed either last night or early this morning from an unknown predator in her pen. Pauly is a verysion of "polly" which comes from them both being Buff Polish. They were my favorites, because their crest made them partially blind, but they knew me, would always come when I called, and I could tell they felt safe around me. I miss them both....

Gopo - A lone gold polish roo. He was the McMurray Hatchery freebie, and Gopo just stuck (pronounced Goe-Poe).

Marshmallow - A white silkie bantam hen. The nieces and nephews said she looked like a fluffy marshmallow.

Cotton - A white silkie bantam roo. My sister actually walked inside one day (she doesn't pay much attention to the chickens) and said "what the hell are those cottonballs that are actually MOVING around the yard?!?" And it stuck for him.

Henny - A mixed-breed brown bantam hen that isn't as broody as....

Momma - A mixed-breed brown bantam hen that is ALWAYS broody!

Horsie - Another one of my sister's exclamations. Horsie is a non-conforming "porcelain d'uccle" that stayed inside for the longest time. He arrived with three of his hatchmates who were all carrying a horrible respiratory infection, and died. Horsie got lucky. But he always made a cooing sound that was very soft and carried more than one note. My sister asked one day if I had been watching TV or playing a game that involved horses. She said she kept hearing the sound of a horse. After a while, she pointed the sound out, and I heard it too - realizing it was actually this 12-week-old chick sitting in a cage in the den! For some reason, his coo actually sounded like a distance horse neighing! So he got the name Horsie.

Harry - My first feather-legged bantam, and a PROPER conforming Porcelain D'Uccle. Not related to Horsie at all. The nieces and nephews always made comments about his Hairy legs, so he got the name Harry.

Frizz - A bantam frizzle cochin rooster that I got earlier this year. He was our first Frizzle, he was by himself for the longest time, and we ran out of names, so we called him Frizz.

That's all that we have named for now. We have 6 large fowl mixed breed chicks, and 6 frizzle chicks, along with four un-named bantam mixed breeds. Most likely all of those will be sold soon, so I haven't bothered to name them yet.

Although this coming April, I have a total of 43 chicks arriving from McMurray, and who knows what I'll be naming all of those!

I am about to have my first hatch but I have been thinking of names and I am thinking of naming them: "Stinky, Ms.Wing(my last name is Wing), Lady, Fat mama, Puff daddy, Sir, or Mister"
 
We have chickens, of them my favorite name has been Lady Friend, then for our ducks, my favorite names have been Lightly and Tiny One :)
 
Everyone has a name in our coop, from Picasso the Olive egger rooster, to Big Bertha the "hefty" lavender orpinton, but my favorite name that I didn't see on here (but stopped reading after a few pages!) is

Peanut the buff orpington. It came from when she was a chick and one day had a full crop giving her that round bottom and second big bump as well. She looked like a peanut with a head
