I usually don't name mine til I know they are pullets or cockerels, and even then I wait until I can ID a personality trait that helps me choose a suitable name. When they get older and they don't have a distinguishable personality, I go for physical features. I'm lame. In my flock currently we have: Poppy, Spunk, Indy (for Independent), Burrito (I've had to wrap her in a blanket), Klaus, Buffy, Red, Blue, Gertie, Penelope, Bellatrix, Narcissa, Squash (shell was squashed a day before her hatch!), Peaches (EE with puffy cheeks), Betty Boop (RIP), No Name, Scratch (scratched an open wound making it worse), and I have 6 cockerels that are named Stew Pot, four pullets unnamed, two leghorns and two barred rocks also unnamed.
All of mine are Margo(RIP), Sunny, Mushy, Lemon, Birdie, Booboo, and Gertie- polishes. Then Patchy, Bobby, Banty, Pumpkin, Twinkie, Nilla, Cookie, Hazel, Blue, Tuna, Camilla, Winona, Jacqueline, Henri (short for Henrietta), Buckbeak, Plucky, Dominique, Scarlet, Cinnamon, Paprika (RIP), Babs (RIP), Ginger, Potato, Squatty/Fatty, Corny, Wolfie, Jerk Jerk/used to be Pearl, Piggy/Peggy, Jazzy, Jewel, Onion, and Pookie! Our chicks are Bubbles and Crisco who are polish, Kiara, Maple, Shelly, Mossy, Gus, Logan, Wesley, Percy, Remi, Quinn, Plum, Peaches, Midge, Candy, Coco, Lady Cluck, Salt, Pepper, Patty and Patty, Bean, Penny, and I’m probably forgetting some...🤣 Our newest chicks are Minty, Squatch, Kyle, Kevin, Carlisle, Tiddlywinks, Duckie, and one pullet unnamed!😉😊

It's peeping and I can see it's beak, I think I might have to assist because it doesn't seem like it can move to zip.
It’s been a long time since first pip. It wouldn’t hurt to peel away a bit of shell, although my experience level is not high on assisted hatches. I’ve only had to do full assist twice.
