I NEED CHICKEN NAMES FAST!!

Hi, we are getting 14 chicks next month...working on names as well. So far we have Sylvia and Buttercup. Maybe Lola and Lulu....I'm liking the Spanish name suggestions...great thread!
 
Here are a few names that were more common in the 19th Century. Some were most common even earlier. The Calvinist inspired ones are great for Dominiques, Javas, Plymouth Rocks, Rhode Island Reds, and other breeds that have either Colonial or New England origins.

Abigail, Adeline, Amelia,Charity, Clemetine, Daisy, Damaris, Dorothy, Edith, Experience, Faith, Fredonia, Grace, Henrietta, Hope, Kesiah, Isabella, Lavinia, Letitia, Lucretia, Madeleine, Martha, Mindwell, Myrtle, Obedience, Olive, Patience, Phidelia, Philadelphia, Priscilla, Prudence, Relief, Submit, Tabitha, Temperance, Tennessee, Waitstill, Winifred.

One of the nicknames for Obedience - and also for Bridget and Brigid - is Biddie.
Mindwell is a perfect name for a stubborn hen.
