We are still deciding the name for our coop, our ideas so far include:

NRA Cluck-house (NRA= No Roos Allowed)
Feather Doors (my 7yr old's idea)
Rose Park Roost (named after our neighborhood)

and my favorite:

The Money Pit

lol, too funny! gave me a laugh as ours are definitely been the money pits each time we have built them.
Most of our are an "A" Frame design of sorts. Some large and some med sized and some small. We have:
"Purple Coop" that houses the Paul Smith Ameraucana ladies and 2 Araucana ladies;
"Yellow Coop" that houses the Wayne Meredith Ameraucana ladies and 2 cockerels;
"Golden Coop" that houses 2 Wayne Meredith Black Ameraucana Cockerels;
"Double Coop" that houses 3 d'Anver pullets on one end and 3 d'Anver cockerels on other end;
"Barn" that has 3 sections and houses 6 Sumatras, 2 Buckeyes, 2 Andalusians, and 8 Cochins;
"Rooster Coops" are single coops for our cockerels and roosters (1 Ameraucana, 1 Chanecelor, 1 Araucana, 2 Ameraucana, 1 Houdan and 1 Araucana;
2 "White Coops" one houses 5 d'Anvers and other houses Silkie, 2 Ancona, Bantam Brahma, and Hamburg;
"Small Condo" which houses one Ameraucana cockerel;
"Barrel Coop" house 1 Black Sumatra Cockerel;
"White Rooster coop" for our Prize Winning Ameraucana Rooster

Some of them are called the color of the Oops Paint my husband found on clearance. The purple was to him gray. Well, it is not gray. It is purple. We laughed as we painted it. The yellow coop turned out to a very dark but bright yellow color. We said we are going to really stand out from the neighbors with this color. It was for sure OOPS Paint! One coop has a peach colored paint and one has a light yellow paint. Some of them have siding and insulation which is where the "Money Pit" came in and where White came from. The rest need siding and insulation for the winter but not sure if we can go down the "Money Pit" path again.
We have since decided to build a different style of coop for the roosters. 7 Chicken Condos built in one coop. They are tall enough for us to walk in. Will have good sized raised boxes for overnight in the back of each section. Have an angled roof. They will be separated by wire inside. The roofing is OSB currently but may have insulation and tin at a later date. So there may be a new color of OOPS Paint joining the other coops very soon to preserve the OSB. During the winter will most likely attach plastic to keep out the cold air. If this style works out some of the other coops will be sold and another 7 Chicken Condo will be built for the Hens.

Our coop and run are built on a hill, and we have less than perfect craftsman skills. Therefore, ours is called, "The Crooked Hen Pen"

We have Rhode Island Reds, so we named ours "The Red House Over Yonder"

PURDY
Named after our first chicken PURDY or PURDY CHICKEN
