What are everyone's chickens names and why?

[4H kids and mom]

Ok, after I let the kids name our "favorites" of the bunch, I had to name the rest. So here's our complete list! (Yes, we named EVERYONE! Even the non-keepers...lol)

The ones the kids named and are all "keepers":

ChickenDuck (of course)
HennyPenny (Who might just be a HENRY...lol.)

Thumbalina

And now, MY names lol. First our "keepers":

Atila the hen (lol)
Tyson (after Tyson chicken lol)
Pooper Cooper (the one that always poops on us...lol)
Hormel
Half Baked (she always looks stoned lol)
Teriyaki (nice carmel color lol)
Deep Fried
Whopper (like BK's chicken whopper lol)
Nugget
Jerky
Popcorn (popcorn chicken! lol)

And then the boys we can't keep, but felt they should have fitting names lol:

Young & Tender (two boys that are always together, and named after that cute commercial years back with the people making the babies dance singing "Do the chicken, young and tender chicken..." lol I love that commercial!)

I have way too many to name them all....so just my favorites. OK, my one and only WHITE hen...is Pancake. Her story...My best friend lives in WV..she has a 6 yr old daughter that had a white duck named pancake. Well...had...a turtle bit its poor head off...they found it by the pond..shoulders in the pond, no head! UGH! Poor little Trinity was devastated. So I sent her a pic of my hen, and we named it Pancake after her poor duck.
My 2 Roos....Mr C. Our last name begins with C...and he has 2 white tail feathers...shaped like a C.
My other Roo....RIR....Ruby...he just shines in the sunlight.
One of my hen Muscovys...Ms Thang...currently setting 21 eggs. My 3 drake muscovy...(black head) Elvis....(white head) Salty....(black and white mix head) Pepper. 2 other hen muscovy..(white head) Frick..(black head) Frack....they hang together. I know...not too original...but they know thier names!

Ok, first is Lucky, because I had something(probably a coon) come and kill one of my chickens and wounded Lucky. Jack is named after Jack Baur (from 24) Because I think he is th coolest man alive. Buffy is a buff orphington. (not original I know) And Sydney is a black australorp. (Because I think they originated from Australia, and Sydney is a city there) No one else has names. Mainly because I can not tell the bantams apart. I just call them the bantams. And the new chicks don't have names yet. I did have a bantam rooster, his name was Angus. After Angus Young. the hard rockin guitar player from ACDC. (he is very short)

I have 4 buff orpingtons named Hyacinth, Daisy, Rose and Violet, from Keeping Up Appearances, 2 americaunas named Flossie and Ezell and a RIR named Lula, after my grandmother and her sisters. I had a turkey poult named Entree, but it died. I got two more turkey poults and named them Wishbone and Drumstick. I'm getting a breeding pair of Toulouse Geese from a friend and am going to name them Agatha and Gus. I like to name them by their personality and appearance. Hyacinth is pushy and has the reddest comb, Daisy is the fattest and blondest, Violet is the smallest and her legs are blueish, Rose has the reddest plumage.

I had two game hens, Lucy (because that was the best female version of Lucky), and Polly, and the late Bridget. We added 5 Black Australorps; Ethel, Zelda, Hilda, Sabrina, and Poppy. Their silkie Rooster, Sparky (my son chose his name). Then we added 2 RIR's, Desi and Fred (short for Fred-fred-burger -- that's the boy again); 2 Americaunas, Tootsie because she hurt her foot when we got her, and Frenchie for her frenchman's moustache; a barred rock, Donna. We adopted a new mom and her 9 babes. Mom is Marilyn because she's a platinum blonde. Babes are yet to be named.

I'm sure most of us know how Ethel, Desi, and for me, Fred got their names. They came after Lucy. And my daughter came up with Zelda, Hilda and Sabrina from Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Couldn't tell ya what the deal was with Fred-fred-burger. That boy of mine is a nut!

We named one of your Chibi after a video game (Chibi Robo).

I haven't named all of mine yet, so far one of my black sex-links is "Chopstix" and my RIR roo is "Goober". As some of you know, I have dyed easter chicks so they have been named according to color. The blue roo is, "Mr. Bloo". The yellow is "Lee-low", and the Purple is "The Perp". Not terribly imaginative for those three.

 

[djwingo]

too funny i named my pink one "pinky" and my blue one that got killed by dog was named "blue" real original huh?

 

[SleekDominique]

My best names were "Lola Falana the Araucana" (nicknamed Lola, of course) and a rather aggressive Rhode Island Red named "Jezebel the Hen from Hell" (aka Jezzy). My daughter named our Barred Rock "Macabre" because as a chick, it looked Goth. ;^P
