What is the name of a parrot?
These birds learn quickly and are always ready to maintain communication with the owner. They remember their nickname first of all, so it is important to choose an interesting nickname for them. Check out the general guidelines for choosing a name for your parrot.
- The name must be original. The nickname "Gosha" and the like are no longer considered interesting, besides, each owner of such a bird will want to distinguish his pet from thousands of others, giving him an unusual nickname.
- Despite the originality, you shouldn't choose a too tricky name. In an attempt to stand out, you can go so far that the parrot simply cannot pronounce its own nickname. Therefore, the name should be easy for the pet itself. It is better that the nickname contains a hissing and sibilant consonant ("s", "h", "w", "u"), a voiced "r", as well as the letters "k", "f", "g". As for the vowels, "a", "y", "i", "e" will do. Parrots really like this sound sequence, so they will begin to pronounce their name with ease and undisguised pleasure.
- The nickname must be short. It is better to have one or two syllables in it. This will be more convenient for the bird and for the owner himself. But, of course, there are exceptions. If Corella has extraordinary learning abilities, then you can call it a longer name, consisting of three syllables.
- Experts do not recommend giving nicknames with letters that are difficult for a bird: "l", "n", "y", "c", "z", "o", "u", "e", this also includes the combinations "j" or "dz". These birds do not have vocal cords, their tongue helps them imitate sounds, so it will be physically difficult and even impossible for her to pronounce some letters.
- And also do not call the bird a double name. The parrot simply will not accept the second nickname and will not pronounce it. And after a while, the owner himself will begin to shorten these two names when talking with a parrot. To avoid confusion, it is better to dwell on a simple nickname in one word.
- Corella learns well the intonation of the owner and copy it when pronouncing words, especially her name. Therefore, it is important to clearly pronounce the pet's nickname, not to swallow sounds, otherwise the bird will copy the slurred pronunciation, then it will be difficult to retrain it.
- Names for cockatiels are selected depending on gender - it is a boy or a girl. If it is not possible to determine the gender, then the name must be chosen neutral, for example, "Busya" or "Ruri".
- You should not rush to choose a nickname, you need to study the habits of a new feathered friend for some time. Otherwise, calling the parrot Grumpy, you can get into a mess if he does not have such a quality of character. You should also not attribute far-fetched behaviors to the bird. It is better to emphasize the individual traits with the name.
- Experts in ornithology do not recommend naming a parrot after any family member or any close family or friends. The bird should understand that you are referring to her, and not to dad, child or a neighbor who came to visit.
- There is no need to name the bird after some modern politician, for example, "Zhirik". It so happens that the popularity of these people fades, the nickname becomes not only irrelevant, but even unpleasant for the owner. This means that he will rarely pronounce the name of the cockatiel, thereby leaving the bird without communication and dooming it to loneliness.
