Original foreign names

The original appearance of the parrot in its own way imposes the need for a unique name. Fortunately, among foreign names there are plenty of nicknames that sound exotic to the Russian ear. You are unlikely to find such a name on anyone else.

Example names

First you need to decide what name you would like to give your pet: funny, in appearance, in character, gentle, or a well-known popular name. And know that you may have to hear this name for many years.

It will be useful for you to know what to do if a parrot is afraid of you, how to teach a parrot to speak, and also what you can and cannot feed parrots.

Cool

Most often they want to give these birds a cool nickname, which, flying out of the bird’s beak, will sound even funnier and will make you and your guests laugh.

Such nicknames include:

• names or surnames of famous personalities. You should not give the names of politicians or actors who are well-known now, but will be forgotten after a while. Parrots can live a long time. It is best to give the name of a famous historical figure. For example, call him Churchill and teach him this politician’s famous quote: “When eagles are silent, parrots chatter.” Or call him Cicero and teach him aphorisms and Latin proverbs. Many entertaining sayings can be found among historical figures, famous writers and poets, and philosophers. Therefore, cool and original names for boy parrots may include: Caesar or Julius, Mark Twain, Suvorov, Gandhi, Socrates, Confucius, Krylov, Kozma Prutkov, Shakespeare, Pushkin and others;
• famous characters. For example, the famous detective Sherlock with his phrase: “It’s elementary, Watson.” Or Bender from “The Twelve Chairs” and his “abroad will help us” and other statements;
• movie or cartoon characters. Shtirlitz, Borman, Terminator, Chapaev, Zorro, Freddy Krueger, Shrek, Mickey, Uncle Fedor, Karych, etc.

Of course, complex and loud names are best given to well-spoken species of parrots (Grey, Corella, etc.).

Important! You should be careful when dealing with large breed parrots. The cockatoo parrot, with its powerful beak of about 10 cm, can break a person’s finger.

By external distinctive features

You don’t have to guess too much and give the boys parrots nicknames based on color: Motley, Chernysh, Snowball, Lemon, Handsome, Citrine, Cornflower, Sailor, Red, Ruby, Pearl, Gray, Gray and others.

It is also necessary to take into account the size of the bird. For small birds, you need to choose a shorter name, which has pleasant diminutive forms (Chizhik, Kesha, Funtik, etc.). It is advisable to give large specimens reputable names: Napoleon, Aristarchus, Ricardo, Ronaldo, Fernando, Phoenix, Archibald, etc.

You will probably be interested in reading about the features of keeping kakapo, rosella, kakariki, kea, lovebirds, monk and drum parrots.

The cockatoo, which we know from films with pirates, can be called by a sea or pirate name: Captain, Cap, Cook, Bosun, Silver, Morgan, Flint.

The nature

If you haven't chosen a name for your parrot yet. But you have already noticed any character traits, then you can choose a nickname for him that will define them: Bully, Pest, Shy, Silent, Nanny, Whirlwind, Hero, Greedy, Glutton, etc.

If he has an explosive temperament - Vulcan, a Nordic character - Nord. But keep in mind that the character of a young individual may change, and Buran may grow up to be a complete phlegmatic person.

Tender

Sometimes you want to call a parrot chick tenderly and sweetly: Baby, Sunny, Birdie, Chizhik, Milok, Kapitoshka. Or human diminutive forms: Karlusha, Kiryusha, Pavlusha, Petrusha, Grishanya, Mishanya.

Did you know? Not only do people give names to their pets, but parrots also give names to their chicks. This can be heard by the intonation - it is different when addressing each chick. And the chicks themselves clearly know who their parents are turning to—him personally or to their sister or brother.

Fairytale nicknames

The chic, dazzling bright colors of parrots evoke thoughts of fairy-tale creatures. Just like the heroes of fairy tales stand out against the backdrop of ordinary people, the fantastic images of parrots stand out strikingly against the backdrop of familiar birds. Therefore, it seems to us that a “fairytale” name will favorably emphasize the image of your pet.

What to do to make the bird start responding

After purchasing a parrot, you should not immediately start loading it with any activities. Initially, there is a period of adaptation when the wavy gets used to the new environment. At this time, you need to accustom him to the presence of a person.

It is recommended to frequently communicate with the bird in a calm voice. For hand taming, it is recommended to feed only from the palm of your hand.

You need to say the bird's name as often as possible. This will allow her to get used to the human voice, and will also gradually learn to pronounce this word. You need to speak in a gentle tone, and also slowly, so that the parrot hears each letter and remembers the correct pronunciation.

You need to speak softly, because if a person does not put emotions into words or even communicates in an angry or loud voice, then the wavy will not want to repeat the name.

The nickname must always be pronounced the same way, so it is forbidden to add new sounds, stress or intonation. This is especially true for children who may have difficulty pronouncing any letters or intentionally change the sound. Therefore, you need to warn kids that they pronounce the word correctly at first.

Sometimes, even when choosing a suitable nickname, the bird refuses to repeat it or does not react to it at all.

This is due to several reasons:

• Poor nutrition. Sometimes a bird refuses to learn due to an illiterate diet. It should be varied and useful. Therefore, it is imperative to give the bird proven food, vegetables, fruits, herbs, sprouted grains, and even cottage cheese with boiled eggs.
• Poor living conditions. Some owners have a negative attitude towards caring for their birds, so they clean the cage only once a week. Such conditions lead to the bird feeling uncomfortable and therefore unable to engage in training. The same applies to the situation when a cage is purchased that is too small, in which the bird is cramped. Therefore, the wavy cannot concentrate on the words that the person says.
• Disease. If the bird suffers from any disease or has other health problems, then it will not respond to the nickname. Therefore, you need to make sure that the bird does not require treatment or support in the form of minerals or vitamins.
• Wrong choice of name . If the nickname is similar to the name of a cat or family member, then the bird gets confused and does not respond to this word. Therefore, it is advisable to come up with an original name for your new pet.
• Presence of extraneous noise. It is recommended to work with birds in a quiet environment. If music is turned on or other noise is present, this will have a bad effect on learning results.
• The bird lacks attention. It is impossible to teach a bird to do any tricks or talk if the training is done too infrequently. Therefore, if a person wants to achieve any results, then it is necessary to regularly communicate with the bird.

If you take these nuances into account, you can quickly teach the bird to speak or respond.

Nicknames by character

All parrots are different, and the difference is not only about color and size. The behavior of each individual varies dramatically. Some parrots are quiet and calm, while others are noisy and love to get into mischief. So the nickname of the bird may be based on some special character trait.

What sounds do parrots pronounce more easily?

The simplest sounds for a parrot are hissing sounds, as well as some sonorant and vowel sounds. This is determined by the structural features of the vocal apparatus. The name for the bird should be selected in such a way that it contains the following sounds:

• hissing: “zh”, “sh”, “sch”, “h”;
• vowels: “e”, “a”, “i”, “u”, “e”;
• sonorant "r";
• voiced and voiceless consonants: “g”, “d”, “k”, “t”, “p”, “f”.

In order for a budgerigar to quickly remember a nickname, it must have a ringing “r” in it: Richie, Shura, Arkasha, Ron. Birds pick up those words in which “growling” sounds are heard. Words with hissing consonants are also easy to remember: Kesha, Jean, Sherry.

And if your pet likes to grab something shiny without asking, then a pirate name will definitely suit him.

What to look for when choosing a nickname

To choose the right name for the wavy, it is recommended to consider simple tips:

• there is no need to rush, since you can initially observe your new pet to evaluate its behavior and character;
• it is necessary to take into account the wishes of all family members, and especially you need to listen to children, who usually pay the most attention to parrots;
• the name should be easy to pronounce not only for the wavy, but also for the person;
• Short nicknames are considered the most optimal;
• It is allowed that the name can be declined in an affectionate form.

The nickname is chosen for the bird’s entire life, so its choice must be approached responsibly and seriously.
