Who doesn't like to have a mythical hero as a pet? There are so many names that you can borrow from history and the most famous legends.
It's true that, in general, the most common nicknames are those for dogs and cats. But there are many other pets that come into people's homes every day.
Each of these terms has its own meaning that can identify the personality of your friend.
The most popular names for birds are usually derived from the physical characteristics of the animal, such as Bianchetta or Nerino. There are also many tributes to famous birds, such as Tweety (by Sylvester Cat), Woodstock (by Snoopy) or even Lake Iago (from Disney's film "Aladdin").
However, there are many other possibilities for names for domestic birds. Some very original and curious, others of mythological root. But the great variety often, instead of guiding the choice, ends up making it even more difficult.
There are two tricks to successfully choose the names for your birds. The first is not to run, take the time to think which of the many you really like. The second is to know the meanings of the names to be able to associate one more appropriate to the appearance or character of the bird in question.
Are you ready then? Take paper and pen to mark the ideas of names for birds that you will like the most among these that we propose:
Names for your very popular birds
Apollo, Ulysses, Penelope, Cupid, Thor, Tristan
Who doesn't like to have a mythical hero as a pet? There are so many names that you can borrow from history and the most famous legends. Let's talk about gods, heroes and very famous people of antiquity.
Let yourself be guided by your imagination but also by the color of the plumage of your canary, nightingale, parrot or parakeet.
For example, if you let the bird free and see that she loves to wander far and wide, Ulysses might be suitable.
If it is red, you may prefer Cupid. In short, the 'mythological' options offer a lot of ideas.
It can also be fun to refer to philosophy or the arts. Imagine how nice it is to call your domestic owl Socrates, especially if it looks serious and thoughtful.
What if you have several birds in the same cage? Well, if there are two, we advise you to recover the classics of literature, such as Romeo and Juliet, Tristan and Isolde, Lancelot and Geneva.
If they are all males, we cannot avoid mentioning the Three Musketeers of Dumas: Athos, Porthos, Aramis and, if there was a fourth, also D'Artagnan. After all, they use their beaks as swords!
Bluebird on the master's hand
Calimero, Arnold, Scooby
As you have seen before, many owners take the name of their bird from the cinema or television, especially from TV series and cartoons. This is the case, for example, also of names such as Calimero, Scooby or Arnold, with the fantasy that can take you to other popular characters such as those of the foosball and comics American.
Another idea could be Anacleto, the famous neighbor of Donald Duck.
Chopin
It's very likely that your bird friend is a very good singer.
What could be better than to call him the most famous classical music artist? If your bird is small, sweet and singing, we suggest Chopin.
But the list of pianists and composers is so long that you can really choose.
Bianchina, Nerino, Yellow Beak
If you don't have too much time and you like simple things, you can quickly name your animal based on its color. Of course, it will not be too original but it will surely make your friends and relatives smile, every time you talk about it.
Charlie
It has become a very popular male name for large birds, with a virile appearance and a strong character. It sounds fun but is an ideal choice for gray or Amazonian parrots.
Fly
It means "flying" in English, it's short, easy to learn and sounds good. For this reason, it is also a very chosen name for birds of all species.
Piki
This name is associated with the noise produced by birds when they bite. A very popular option to name small birds.
Moon
It's a beautiful female name, often chosen for other pets. Although it is very common, it has not lost the beauty of its meaning.
