What did you name your chickens and why?

[Iheartmyhens]

This time I named my hens-all are pets:

In pecking order(as far as I can determine it):

Isabella-she has taken over the job of trying to be the rooster & crows pathetically once in a while.
Blackie-first one I named-original-huh? She has 2 spurs-I LOVE black stars-so full of personality
Giselle-her neck is darker than her body-reminded me of a graceful ballerina(yes-a hen reminded me of ballerina-you can see where we're going here...
Phyllis-she has one spur & is partially bald-not very ladylike, so I named her after Phyllis Diller.
Daisy-the prettiest of the bunch, & most tame (they are now getting better...Daisy and Isabella both took a little scratch out of my hand for the first time yesterday).
Mabel-also very pretty, but kinda plain (her comb is still growing in-I would say they are all probably between 6 to 8 months). Mabel LOVES picking on the newcomers:

Henrietta-because it's pretty to say & downhome with personality-like hens are.
Maureen-production red, & I'm reading a biography of Maureen O'Hara right now...

Paige-while not a red head (& not related) Paige O'Hara voiced my favorite Disney heroine, Belle, & now I have a pair of O'Haras, so that was kinda cute.

Took me a while to decide on these...as you can probably tell, I really enjoy my pet hens. They are really undestimated/misunderstood by people when it comes to their value as pets

So, how/what did you name YOUR pet chickens & how did you decide? (I am assuming all food chickens are either unnamed or called Breakfast, Lunch, or Dinner...)

Oh boy! Here goes:

I named my first three little day old pullets after flowers...Lily (the boss lady), Daisy (she's all about the food and the friendliest), and Violet....clearly the low gal on the pecking order, who sadly was taken by a hawk.

Then, to make myself feel better, I bough FOUR more chicks!

Isabow is my husband's favorite, an RIR. He named her after the female character in a movie called "Lady Hawk".
Then there are three EEs....Laverne and Shirley because they look pretty similar, and then Farrah, named after Farrah Fawcett.

THEN I've got six new chicks:

A speckled sussex that I call Freckles, but I always goof and call her speckles....
Two buff orps that I call "The Goldie Sisters" because I can't tell them apart yet
Wobbles--he's a little GLW rooster. He had a shaky start--wobbled around alot, hence the name
And then I have two un-named GLW pullets.....just not sure what to name them yet.

I've also got four cream brabanter chicks that I hatched, and I don't know if they're boys or gals so I'm waiting to name them. And one little white chick who's egg came with the brabanter eggs--was supposed to be a brabanter egg--oops! Oh well....I call that chick Whitey!

Those are it!
