Yesterday we got a new baby Quaker Parrot. He (she?) is 4 months old. He is still kind of shy, and is going through his first molt (that is why he doesn't look so pretty yet). Below are two pictures that we took yesterday. However, we are having difficulties coming up with a name. Our current bird (cockatiel) is named Phiber (after Fiber-optics, don't ask). Therefore we want our new bird to have a technical name too. Anyone have any suggestions?

 

Cooper! Not technical but.....

 

Mega"bites"?

 

 

I once had a pair of Parrots named "Joystick" and "Trackball"

Candace, call your new parrot "pentoses" or "pento" for short. Very cute.


To see what Pentoses is technical for see: http://www.physlink.com/Education/AskExperts/ae5.cfm

Lots of good names, Kevin and I just have to agree on one. I like the pentoses name Dom, but pento sounds a little to close to pinto. :smile:

George Fox

The founder of the Quaker religion.

They're gonna kill me (Quakers are pacifists by the way) at the next meeting after making this suggestion.

 

How about greenie or greeny

Of maybe lucky.

 

What about Beeker?

Years ago Debbie had a Quaker name "Oatie" (like Quaker oats) LOL

I know it isn't a techie name, but I thought I would share...

 

How about NAM or nammie?

 

We had a long argument about this last night and we ended up with two names: Google or Gig.

After many hours of discussion we decided that his name will be Gig. :smile:

 

Ohhh...I like that name!!! Well worth a little arguing-over for sure!

My MINI still has no name so I guess I'm pretty bad at that stuff! :???:

 

Hi Gig,

Oh, what a cute little birdie, he doesn't bi....Ouch, Gig a bites!

 

I would have voted for Google myself

"Google Wanta Cracker?"

"Gig Wanta Cracker?"

Nope: I like Google

Bill

 

How about googie or googy?
