Tycos_mom Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 I now understand why everybody asks for help when it come to giving there baby a name. I've been trying since I got it yesterday to think of a name that would be suitible for either a boy or a girl I googled names on the Internet and there are so many its impossible to choose. I want something that means something special like love or blessing or joyful but there aren't many that are for a boy and a girl. Mabie you guys now some nice unisex name with nice meaning. I would love to look at them if you know any Thanks in advance.
BaxtersMom Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 Does this mean you are taking the little baby grey? I don't have a suggestion for a name but what I did with Cooper was look up names from the region he came from on the internet. Can't remember right off hand but I think Cooper my amazon is originally from South America or Mexico. How about looking up African names and find one that means love or blessing, etc? I picked my top names, asked others for name suggestions and I didn't go with an ethnic name in the end. Someone suggested Cooper and I liked it. It means barrel maker:laugh: I ended up having a contest and Cooper it turned out to be. How about a contest? It was fun.
she Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 I love the name Malaika for a grey, It is swahili and means angel.
BaxtersMom Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 I have some names now:laugh: Here are a few african names and meanings. If nothing else it's fun looking them up;) Omari~God of the highest Dakarai~Happiness LuLu~Pearl Ami~Saturday Child Mandisa~Sweetness Abeeku~Born on Wednesday Deka~Pleasing Bello~Assistant.

Eckobird Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 I know what you are going through because I need the same help! I have been thinking of a name for months and still don't know what to name him/her! I wanted a unisex name too because I still don't know the sex but I think I might have to get him/her DNA'd before I name it. I wanted an African name that had meaning too it but I don't know how to pronounce half of the names lol! Soo I am still thinking... ahh it's soo hard!
chimaysmommy Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 This doesn't really translate into any particular meaning/phrase (but it's a pretty embarassing story), but my mom had named my high-school TAG Shady...after the imaginary friend I had when I was about three. Shady apparantly went everywhere with me, and I talked to her all of the time. I promise I'm totally sane now (I think...lol), but when I saw your post for a name-search, Shady was the first that came to mind.
Tycos_mom Posted March 17, 2009 Author Posted March 17, 2009 I like the name Shady thanks I'll put in onmy list. I also like the name Zuri I just choose 10 names I like and pick my favorite out of them. I would like the get baby Dna checked.Baxsters mom I decide that it was just to much reponsibility to take on someone elses birds. I would not be able to live with myself if something went wrong. So he said if I still wanted a baby he would give it to me for half price if I wanted to finish hand feeding it myself. So yes this is definatly a keeper bought and paid for.
Julie Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 I just got a new Eclectus yesterday (he comes home mid-May). We named him Picasso . . . goes well with Dante. My Eclectus Gomez passed away several weeks ago after surgery to fix a broken leg. I don't know if it helps or not, but here's the rest of the list I had: Pepsi Dusty Schroeder (from Peanuts) Odie Iago Rover Dorian (Dorian Gray) Spike Jazzy Jasper Spike Woodstock Fang Zalman Astro Slash Donatello Comedy Grayson
judygram Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 Fang and Slash are some interesting names, lets hope if you by chance pick one of them that it is not because it is appropriate.:blush: :laugh:
SweetFX Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 The name of the cockatoo my daughter fell in love was named "Kula" . If we ever get a cockatoo we will be naming it that.
Tycos_mom Posted March 21, 2009 Author Posted March 21, 2009 Well everyone I have decided that the baby really needs a name so since I really liked the name Shady and I haven't come up with anything I like better and when I asked baby if s/he liked it s/he responded by getting excited and kissing my nose so I took that as a yes I like it. So the baby's name is officaly Shady Grey Thank-you Chimaymomma for suggesting it.:woohoo: <br><br>Post edited by: Tycos_mom, at: 2009/03/21 15:44
