What have you named your chickens?

[ralleia]

Buff orp rooster: King Henry (became "King Henry soup" when he turned aggressive)
Buff orp roo #2 with wry neck: Quasimodo

Polish roo: Amadeus

Consistently broody and matronly Black Australorp hen: Big Mama

Black Australorp roo: Lucifer

Barred Rock roo: Bruce Leroy

White Rock hen, inquisitive, friendly: Molly

Grey silky roo that wouldn't stop crowing and would even crow while fleeing from you (eaten): Little Sh**

Most of my chickens aren't named--just the more unique personalities

We haven't named all of ours yet... But we have named a few!
We hatched 2 out 5-6 weeks ago. Buff Orpington/Light Brahma cross. One is Star (it hatched first) the second is Sally.

We hatched another 5 on tues/wed - all silkies. We have Molly, Polly (for polly pocket), and Nicky so far.

We also just got a shipment today... 15 total in the shipment.
One of the Easter Eggers was all feisty when I put them in the brooder, so that one will be Peppy, feisty, or spunky
One has broken toes on both feet, and my boyfriend said she is a warrior for surviving

So, her name is Xena (warrior princess)
One Easter Egger looks a lot like a welsummer, so I am naming that one Carbon, ditto, or echo

I love reading all the names! I got some good ideas!

Lt. Worf - BR roo, in charge of security
Aunt Bea - silvery gray EE, cuddly, round
Marilyn - platinum blonde EE with orange highlights
Ophelia - EE, cuz my neighbor picked it
Hawk - EE, cuz she looks just like one and is wild
Bambi - BR, name of the Rural King gal who picked her out
Oceana - BR, somebody else's chicken name I saw on here and liked!

Some of mine still don't have names. I find it hard to name them when I don't know if they're male or female yet. Do you all just assume female until proven otherwise or...? My track record for naming isn't that great anyway. Our dog took two weeks to rename, and our kitten was originally Cricket, but as he grew into himself didn't fit that and was Kitten for about 3 months before we finally settled on Casper.

My daughter named two of ours, Bonnie and Kallie. Not sure where she came up with the names. Bonnie is an EE, and we now strongly suspect the other EE is a male, so my husband dubbed him Clyde. We have a Gandalf (Lavender Orpington) and an Einstein (Dorking cross with a crazy "hairdo", and these latter are both female, as far as we know

). We have one named Raven. The last two are a sweet little runty Wyandotte who we just haven't found anything to suit, and an Austrolorp who we've sort of dubbed Oreo, but I know she won't stay white and black forever so I don't know if that will stick. I'm going to do a better read through this thread for inspiration.

We're getting some more chicks today, and two are Mille Fleur Belgian D'Uccles. I think I'm going to name those two Popcorn and either Peanut or Cookie. For some reason Popcorn seems to really suit a Belgian D'Uccle to me.
