Many people gladly give birth to wavy parrots as pets. And it is no coincidence, because these birds are very funny and often enough even learn to talk, which becomes an additional reason for the pride of the owners.
Especially often birds spell their name, so you should be as responsible as possible to decide which nickname to choose for your little friend.
What to proceed when choosing?
When choosing a name, many owners long enough to puzzle. Indeed, one should not rush into it. The best option is to wait for a while. This will provide an opportunity to observe the feathered friend, to study his preferences, to see his habits.
The name you need to pick a light and beautiful, which is also quite simply pronounced. In addition, you need to focus on the floor of the bird. However, the basic rules according to which this difficult stage can be reduced still exist. First you should discuss this topic with all family members. Nickname should please everyone. In addition, if it is decided to call the pet a human name, it should not be similar to the names of those who live with the bird or often come to visit.
The next item is convenience in pronunciation. It is better to avoid long names, it will be very difficult for a parrot, and sometimes it is impossible to learn them. You also need to take into account that the owners often turn to the pet in a diminutive form, so the nickname should be decent. And, of course, you should choose a name, which, when pronounced, will not cause problems for the bird itself.
Some people believe that there is nothing terrible about renaming wavy parrots, if the nickname was initially chosen not too successfully. This opinion is wrong the name must be given once to the end of life. Even if an adult individual is acquired or taken from another home, the family should not change its nickname - it can be a great stress for the pet. In a pinch, you can think of the most consonant options.
Summing up the observations, one should pay attention to the color of the bird and its character. Is the parrot fun jumping in the cage, trying to fly and behaving very actively? Can call it Shustrik, Whack, Cucaracha. And it sounds quite fun, and most reflects the behavior of the new pet.
The color of the feathers will also tell you a lot of interesting options. Do green feathers predominate? Name can be: Green, Shrek, Lavrusha, Christmas Tree, Gena (by association with the crocodile), Zelenousha - derivatives a huge amount. Is your pet yellow? By themselves, such nicknames as Sunny (in English Sunny), Zlata, Gold.
The owners of the parrot blue color, too, is where to apply the fantasy. Forget-me-not and Aqua - great nicknames for girls, and boys like something Indigo or Golub. White bird can be called Snezha or Snezhik. The main thing - to include your own imagination and discuss this issue in the circle of their loved ones.
For lovers of budgies, it is no secret that sex has a great influence on the behavior and talkativeness of the bird. If girls are calmer, then boys are mostly exceptionally talkative.
When there are doubts about the sex of the pet, you can use the neutral version of the name.
