I need some name suggestions please..

Our youngest chicks are getting to the point that I can pretty much tell pullet from roo.. and their colors are getting to be so pretty. these are not going to the freezer so I want to name them (not naming the ones that may go to freezer camp)

Lancelot---this is most likely a roo (ee/araucana whatever you want to call it) he is by no means social with me, but all six of the newest little ones stay close together with each other like their own sub-flock

Gwenevere---I am pretty sure this on is pullet, because her tail feathers and temperment are completely opposite to the boys. she is calm, very private and doesn't mind being picked up (she doesn't love it but she doesn't mind it either)

Arthur---this roo is doing his best to be dominant over the others in this "sub-flock"

Romeo---this is my barnivelder roo....he is going to be beautiful when he matures...I was thinking Romeo for him

Juliette---this is my barnevelder pullet (i am pretty sure), and she will be equally gorgeious when mature. I can already make out some of the lacing.

Amelia---and this one for now we are calling Little Brown (my 7 year old came up with that) she is a Barnevelder as well, but I believe she will be double laced. we got her at the same time as the other 5 and she didn't grow as fast I guess. so we have her in the cage with her own food and access to water. just in case she wasn't getting as much as the others were

here is what I was thinking ( hope others will chime in with their thoughts):
#1 ---clyde (not sure why, but that is what came to mind) or some sore of name that means eagle or hawk because that is what he looks like in head area

#2 --- maybe petunia

#3 ---- buster, or something like that

#4 ---romeo

#5 --- no clue, but something prissy girly sounding

#6 ---speckles maybe (saw this on another thread) but not sure how she will feather out later though

anyone else?

if you are going with Romeo you should have a Juliette.

you have a point, so the barnevelder girl could be Juliette... I think I'm getting somewhere here

 

[bethandjoeync]

okay I have it, and changed the first post and added the names

I was thinking Rodger for #1 and Tank or Tonka for #3

I think you should give them all the same name. That way when you call it they all come.
I vote for "Roy Rogers".
