What's Your Chickens names and Why are they named that?

[Mervin]

Biscuit - Welsummer roo
Gravy - Welsummer roo

I wanted to name them Campbell and Sanders, but the wife took to calling one Biscuit. If they step out of line, that's how I'll serve them.

Jane - EE hen. The day I brought her group home from the feed store she wouldn't let anyone else in the brooder alone. So, she became Calamity Jane. Incidentally, she's become everybody's favorite. She's the closest we have to a lap chicken
Runty - Welsummer X ?? hen. Self explanatory
Sunny - RSL hen. 3-year-old daughter named her and everyone liked it.
Easter Egg - EE Hen. 3-year-old again. After I told her, she might lay a blue/green egg.
Pinky - BR Hen. 5-year-old son thought it was funny to name a black chick Pinky.
Jelly Bean - BR Hen. 5-year-old. Right one the heals of Easter Egg.
Gurty - RSL Hen. My wife just liked it.
Gretchen - Welsummer hen. My little girl took offense to me calling her Dum Dum (for obvious reasons) and I like the name Gretchen.
Unamed Welsummer Hen #1

I have not named all of my chickens yet but here are the ones I have named:

Flo--barred rock named after the fish in the fishtank from the movie Finding Nemo. She was the littlest chick and would often be off by herself while the rest of the flock were eating. Now she is my favorite and often seeks out my company when I am with them.

Trouble--she is the guardhen (wyandotte). She is the lead chick and maintains law and order. She is also very adept at trying to escape the brood box and will challenge me from time to time as well as start things with the others.

Elanor--wyandotte, second in comand to Trouble and will back her up or challenge her. She is going to be a big bird!

Nervous Nellie--barred rock, she is constantly making noise about something. If she gets something good to eat, she runs up and down squawking like crazy! Everything makes her nervous! Very adept at catching flying insects though!!!

I have yet to name the other four. Just havent found a name for their personalities yet.

Butters (nicknamed Butter-Roo) - BO roo, named cuz he's butter collored and my BF likes South Park

Carmella - BO pullet cuz she's carmel colored
Rocky the Rock - BR pullet cuz we're not very creative

And my little favorite...

Eggie - BR pullet, cuz she was the smallest and you pronounce baby "a-eh-gee" in Korean. Eggie is our chicken version of that. She has lived up to her name, still the smallest of the four and while the others are making their adult noises, she still peeps like a baby at 3 months old

Giant Buff Cochin Roo named "Dot"

We have three Cinnamon Queens, Jenny, Zeva, and Colonel Mann. We had four, but Kate died (somehow that almost seems appropriate) . And we have one Roo, Leroy Jethro Giblets, Jethro for short. My daughter named them.
