Bird Name Inspiration

It might seem hard to choose a name for your pet bird, especially if this is your very first bird. But the fact is, choosing a bird name is extremely easy. All you need to do is get a little creative and think outside the box.

Inspiration is all around us and all we need to do is look for it. So, where can you get your bird name inspiration from? Here are a few things you can dip into:

1. TV Shows, Movies And Celebrities

Whether you love watching cable TV or Netflix, we’re sure you’ll have your favorite shows, movies and fictional characters.

It can be a really fun thing to name your pet bird as “Chandler” or “Marty Byrde” or Daenerys. Plus, such a name will be a great conversation starter when guests come over. If you’d like to name your colorful bird after a real celebrity, go right ahead.

2. Books

Books and magazines are another really great place to find inspiration for unusual bird names. Look through your favorite read and find your most-loved character.

You can also name your pet bird after literary legends such as “Mr. Darcy” or “Hamlet” or “Hermione”. You can also name your pet bird after authors, such as “Virginia”, “Sylvia”, “Dickens” or “Twain”.

3. Music

How does a bird by the name “Beyonce” sound? That’s really powerful, don’t you think? Or maybe you have a song that you resonate with deeply and you want to name your bird after it?

Such music-inspired names can be really wonderful. They depict the uniqueness of your pet journey and make your bird stand out from the crowd.

4. Artwork And Artists

Artists like “Van Gogh”, “Frida”, “Picasso” and “Dali” have really strong and unique names that can double as a great bird name too. Or if you have a particular artwork that you love, you can name your bird after the work too. For example, how about a name like Madonna, after the painting of Madonna and the Child?

5. Scientists, Politicians, Social Justice Warriors And Sportspeople

If you’re inspired by powerful people in society, global politics, sports and science, you can always name your little feathery friend after them.

How about a name like “Greta”, “Churchill”, “Ronaldo” or “Einstein”?

6. Animals, Plants And Flowers

If you want to keep it completely natural, then a great way to name your pet bird is to name him after another creature. Imagine calling our “Tiger” and having your Canary fly out to you.

Help Choosing The Right Name

We’re sure that you’ll find a list of names from the above inspirations. But how do you narrow down on the best name for your pet bird?

Here are a few tips you could follow:

1. Understand Your Bird’s Personality

Every bird has a unique personality. Some are spunky, while others are shy. The best way to name your bird is to observe your pet’s personality and name him accordingly.

2. Look At His Plumage

Although birds of the same species have the same plumage, some markings may be unique to each individual bird. For example, if your bird has a spot on his plumage, you can call him “Spot”.

3. Let His Song (Or The Lack Thereof) Be Your Muse

If your bird sings, then use the tone of his singing, the tenor, the voice modulation and the sweetness/harshness as an inspiration to name him. If he is a non-singing bird, then there are plenty of names that suit a silent personality too.

4. Use Your Bird’s Geography To Guide You To The Name

If your bird is exotic, use its geographical heritage to guide you in your choice. Naming your bird after the land he was brought from, can be a great way to infuse some culture into your home.

Wrapping Up

So, now that you know what unusual pet bird names are available today and how to choose a great name for your new bird, go ahead and have fun with it.
