Hi everyone! I am pretty positive that I want a blue mutation parrotlet. Although, there is one more thing I must do before purchasing one. NAMING IT. I am really stumped. I have looked at many names and have felt good about some, but i hope to see one that will just click the second I see it. Thank you guys sooooo very much. I really appreciate it.
P.S. Im looking along the lines of something exotic, yet cute and loveable. Also, something that would make sense. (Ex. NOT something like Greeny or Lava)
Im pretty sure Im getting a boy. So far I like Scooter, but I kinda want a bit more exotic. I also like Tico or Peaco or something along those lines. Oh and I am absolutely in love with the name Ash, but I just don't think that's a very appropriate name for a blue bird like this.
Why not bring home your little one first? Sometimes we can have the perfect name picked out, but when that little bundle of fluff is actually sitting on our hand it just doesn't suit, and we end up going with something completely different.
Those are cute names I like Tico.. (I orginally was going to get a boy and name him Oscar but I fell in love with Roxy lol)
Find a few names first then decide which one fits best once you have you little guy home.
My green p-let is named Sprout cause he's such a little bean Sprout and Buddy came to me named that. But I should have named them Oscar and Felix from the old TV show "The Odd Couple" Oscar would be Sprout he makes such a mess when he eats and Buddy would be Felix cause he is so neat when he eats. LOL
I had so much trouble trying to come up with a name for Jack. We had him 3 days before he had a name. And even then, my husband jokingly suggested Jack the Ripper and I scoffed at it. But the next day while watching him tear and rip at the newspaper i decided the name fit
So have some ideas in mind, but let the name come to you once you meet him
Mine was named by the clerk at the pet store where i got him...he is such a nosey thing and always stretches out thin and arches his neck to see what is going on... so she was calling him Archie.... I kept the name cuz it suited him... now he is my little Archibird! BUT ... if I was going to get another blue male I think Grover the little blue monster is who he would be.... but I do not see a new p'let in my future...lol 2 budgies and 1 Archibird is enough for me!
we had Pickles name right from the begining and luckily it suited him quite well
but with Blue and Luca it was a nightmare!
first off we werent sure if she was a she or not lol
so they were marco and polo first..and then it was just polo because we couldnt think of a suitable mint sounding girl name..then she was nameless for a while, and so was he..then blue just stuck, and my mum really liked the name luca, and it seems to suit them
id say have a list of favorites then just see what sticks when you bring them homeyou never know it could be something you never even thought of before
We named Bart (Bartholomew) after we got him home when he was a baby. The first thing he did was go over to the cockatiel we had and ripped her head feathers out, he didn't even take the time to look around first. So, he was named after Bart Simpson on the "Simpsons". We knew we had one with attitude right from the start. LOL.
Hmmm blue boy names??? How about Boomer? I had a blue parakeet named that, and he was a little angel. He would fly on peoples shoulders if you crinkled a chip bag. XD
Since you're going with a boy, the name Katara will be no use to you. Lol. That's for a blue girl (Katara, the water-bender from Avatar: the last Air Bender) XD.
Hmm.
Leviathan? Or Carbuncle. (I really don't like Carbuncle, but if you decide it fits.....)
Or you could go with something like....Elazul (For Lapiz Luzuli). XD It's how I came up with Esmerelda's name (Emerald).
Aquamarine is a blue stone. You could try to tweak that word around to find a name fitting for your bird. Also, Zircon in a blue stone. You can tweak that around, too.
You can always go with Eriol. (I pronounce it Eroil. XD) I think that was the guy....off the Card Captors (LOL!!!) The one with blue hair. Umm...Clow Reed's reincarnation. That kid. It might fit!!!
It's totally up to you. You might wanna get your bird FIRST before you name it. Keep it for a few days, and the bird will eventually name itself. XD
Congrats on whatever new birdie you get!
If you get stuck between two good names, just let the bird pick! Put 2 things that are different (e.i., paper towels, one has a corner cut off, two different types of fruit) and come back 1-2 hours later, the one he's shredded the most wins!
But if it's food, what if they're both gone??? And for the paper towel, what if they're both shredded to bits and you can't tell which pieces belonged to which???
XD sorry, I always have to find flaws in people's ideas.
