It has been a week since I got my two budgies. Trying to think of names for them. Both are males and one yellow and one blue. I posted pictures already under another post.
What are some of the names some of you like?

I am hopeless with naming animals.......they get a registered name with the vet clinic and microchip place then I proceed to give them a heap of random nick names. :lol: I often wonder if my pets have been confused but they all seem to be happy answering to numerous names:roflmao:

Have you found yourself referring to them by any name at all yet? Maybe you just need some extra time to find what feels right for them?

Yes, I have been calling the blue one "Perky Bird". He is so perky! Thanks for making me think of that.

Packer is Green and Gold (okay, yellow) and I live in WI, so my husband picked the obvious name. If you live in WI and don’t care about football or the Green Bay Packers, you keep mum about it. Ha! We lost a little blue girl that looked like the sky, so called Breeze. Our little mostly white guy is Frost, named by our granddaughter. I hadn’t thought of it, but I guess I go for names that are descriptions rather than proper names. Which do you tend to do with pets you have had?

Are there any characters from books or movies that you like? Comic books? Singers or other performers? Pick a name that means something to you for each of them.

I have done both. The dog we have now is, Miss Daisy and our cat is Tinkerbell, and our tortoise is Merlina. Our sweet dog who passed away, was named Bungee. Before that we had Pepsi. We had other cats that were named, Tabatha, Nugget, Tybo, and Heidi all lived very long lives. Birds I have had were named, Shasta, Poppy, Ginger, Nutmeg, Petunia, Cinnamon, and Sweetpea.

Budgies are from Australia so how about aboriginal names?
Blue one Konol (sky) and yellow one Mandu (the sun).

Thank you one and all for all the name suggestions. You have given me some wonderful ideas. We grow butternut squash in our garden and I was making some butternut soup from one of them. I starting thinking about the word, "butter nut". Butter is yellow and I LOVE nuts........so I have named the yellow budgie, "Butternut".
I have named the blue one, "Willow", from the movie, Willow. The character Willow was a little guy who had a big heat. Budgies are a small bird with big hearts.
Again thank you for your help. You made me really think. The names seem to fit my two cutie pies.
