Sadly Rocky and Camilla have disappeared. They may have run away. Garry is licking his lips suspiciously but I think that is just to cheer me up.
Thinking of names, we’ll need at least one.
Bob?
Bobby?
Robert?
Rob?
Robby?
Roberta?
Bobberty?
Bob-hibberty?
Bobbins?
Or another name?
Please leave a comment.
Giuseppe Barbagelata – Why go for the simple names?
One should most definitely be named SADIE (say-dee). Every Hen Party has a SADIE.
Sanders
Bobkins isn’t bad either
Fritz.
But I am probably only saying that because my cat just died.
I enjoy the name Slaa. It may not be a… proper name, but it is my nickname and I am biased. Plus, you can add however many A’s to the end of it that you want (Example: Slaaaaaaaa) and make it unnecessarily long! AND it can work for a boy OR a girl! See! Everyone wins!
How about Roger Smythe-Gordon? It sounds quite dignified.
Clucky McCluckerson.
Chuckles
Rupert. Or Omelet.
How about Trout?
Garry.
Mr Scott-Irvine definitely deserves more recognition.
If the magnificent of you still hasn’t conceived it (rarely enough), I would surely recommend “Margaret Hatcher”.
I thought you were going to commit suicide?
I would suggest George W Bush, oh wait, I think that one’s taken. How about Darles Chickens
Egbert? (Eggbert?)
Ruprecht? Ruperto? Roberto?
Rubber?
K.F. (short for ‘Kentucky Fried’?)
Bobaloo?
Bobo? Boba? Bobaluga?
Bob the Chicken
Choke? (the Chicken)
I always give my pets really intelligent names, but they end up being called just Puss, or Dog or Bird, so I would suggest you call her Chicken. Easier to remember too.
I’d say Vladimir. Or perhaps Hermann if you prefer German names.
Schröder isn’t bad either!
Flobert P. Biddlesworth.. “Come here Flobert!” It rolls off the tongue
Being the brilliant national treasure you are, you have naturally been drawn to the most beautiful and regal of all names. I salute you, sir. Never before, to my knowledge, has someone combined the tastiness of chicken with the awesomeness of Robert. There is one variation you left off the list though: Bobert. Now I’ve never been fickle about giving boy pets boy names and girl pets girl names. I figure what they don’t know can’t hurt them, but just in case you’re one of those bleedy heart care about your pet’s self esteem hippies…
Henrietta for a hen.
Cogburn for a rooster.
My Dad knew somebody called Bob Chicken. Somebody told my dad that he’d died. Then my dad met him in a supermarket and said that somebody had told him he was dead. A few weeks later Bob Chicken died.
Boba Fett would make a nice chicken name even though a chicken isn’t much like an intergalactic bounty hunter.
They should both be named Eric, of course.
Hmmm…a good name for a chicken…
Cheeky Beaky 🙂
Mr. Hat.
It actually just popped into my head.
I think I’d better go to bed now.
Oh yeah, and Happy Birthday John!
Bobbert (I have a friend with that nickname, works for him)
The names Minerva and Saphronia are for the birds. Use them in good health. Mind you, with these two names, no bird would scarcely poke its beak out the door so you won’t have them running away.
Norman.
“Humble Fat”. Assuming it’s a fowl of exceptionally good character, that is.
I have actually thought about acquiring a chicken just so I could name it Cluck Norris. However, my friend Inger thought of it first and beat me to it.
“Cheese” for one, and “Cracker” for the other.
Kenny Rogers Roasted Rooster….escaped! or Fluffy the fair feathered fowl.
Judy would also work!
Yolkahama, Barbara Higgenbothom, Eustice Plucker, Ulysses Cordon-Bleu, Lord and Lady Pecker or Daphne Gai-Pan
Party Fowl
Funderstraps
Stribolgibbee
Nietzsche, Nebuchadnezzar, Scheherazade, Pamplemousse
Branston Pickle
If indeed Camilla is not returning (fairly certain I didn’t eat her yesterday), I can think of a way to honour her, and remember her. The obvious name for her replacement would be Parker-Bowles…
For convenience sake, all my hens were Henrietta and the roosters were Stewart. Dull and unimaginative, maybe but I never once forgot one of their names.
P.S. Camilla did not wind up on my Thanksgiving table – unless she was masquerading as a ham. In that case, sorry.
Colonel?
Sanders?
Apricot?
Satay?
Albatross (as long as there’s no wafers)
Flopsy, Mopsy, Cottontail, and Muriel Volestrangler (Sgt.)
You can NOT name one of them Judy, because that’s my name, and now that you know, I’ll never forgive you if you name a chicken after me.
Lets see …four female chickens? I’d name them Ed, Ed, Ed and Ed.
How about: 1. L’Coq Cleese — or (thematically consistent): 2. Pecker Puck-Puck-Pucker !!!
Domum – So it will always stay at or go towards home.
Mr. Cleese, how about “Chica” (cheeka) which is Spanish for “little girl”. Chica Chicken lol And there’s always “Chantecleir”for a rooster. Sorry I mispelled it. Donna
Another nice, old-fashioned name is “Priscilla” or “Prissy”. Donna
If you were looking for new names for all of them I would suggest
Good
Morning
Dear
Friends
Not only would they have such positive energy in their names but also your neighbours would be pleased when calling the chickens every day at feeding time.
As for just one name, I really like Bob-hibberty or Bobberty.
“Or-another-name” sounds weird…
Mabel and Biff.
