Odd’s thread of names! (I can suggest names for individual birds, too!)

[TheOddOneOut]

Okay! For anyone who is looking to name birds, there is now a thread! Some people know that I am good at giving pretty, fitting names to birds. My own bird’s names:
Everest, Melody, Pepper, June Bug, Nutmeg, Amber, Vanilla, Firefly, Salt, and Blue.
I really love naming things, and believe I am good at it.
So if you want to ask me to give you name suggestions, or just get ideas from the lists I’ll make, please do!
I’ll post some lists for bird specific colorations, but I’ll also post some themed names and more!
Thank you for visiting!

Did you know that Emma has a hen named Moony? LOL

I did not know everyone didn't.
I mean why wouldn't all of you? I'm kind of a big deal.

My names aren't creative but rather utilitarian. We name the birds after things they can't eat that way the kids can remember what not to feed them.

We have : Pickles, Olive, Peanut, Coffee, Chocolate Chip, Butter (aka "The Butter Bird"), French Fry, etc.

Here are some chicken names I like. I posted a similar list on another thread a few days ago. They may not suit everyone's taste, but here they are!

My favorite vintage-sounding names for pullets/hens: Arabella, Araminta, Betty, Elowen, Esther, Frances, Gladys, Lena, Leola, Lottie, Mabel, Rosalind, Tessie, Tilly.

Vintage-sounding names for cockerels/roosters: Alistair, Ambrose, Bertril, Benedict, Cecil, Cedric, Leonor, Leland, Lionel, Maurice, Percival, Reuben, Vernon.

A few flower/herb/spice name ideas for pullets/hens: Violet, Primrose, Cicely, Nutmeg, Lavender, Rosemary, Juniper, Bluebell, Cinnamon/Canela...most flower names are suitable.

Autumn and Maple are a couple name ideas that would be suitable for brown or multicolored brown/red/orange hens. And Noir and Lillith (meaning "belonging to the night," according to name websites,) could be added to the list of names for black birds.
