Beautiful and original names for boy budgies
Budgerigars are many people's favorite feathered pets. But often their new owners have difficulties with choosing a nickname. Indeed, its ability to speak largely depends on the name of a parrot. In addition, a bright, unusual and memorable nickname is a reason for pride both for the bird itself and its owner. How to choose the right nickname for these birds and what you should pay attention to in the first place, we will talk in this article.
Features of choosing a name
First of all, it is necessary to accurately determine that now it is the parrot boy who will live in the apartment. The fact is that male birds, unlike females, pronounce more sounds, and therefore the list of nicknames for them is more extensive. And also the following factors must be taken into account.
- When deciding how to name a budgerigar boy, you should give priority to those nicknames that all family members like. Indeed, in the next few years, this very word will have to be heard as often as possible.
- A pet's name can be based on its personality or size. At the same time, for boy budgies, a nickname should be chosen simple and, best of all, consisting of only one word.
- Birds that are blue, green or yellow can be named according to their color, such as Blue or Green.
- It is very important to choose a nickname based on the sounds the birds are easiest to pronounce. So the parrot will not only be able to remember his name faster, but he will also learn to speak faster.
- A popular mistake of owners is to call the bird by the same name that bears either a family member or any other pet.The feathered one simply will not be able to remember the nickname correctly, he will not respond to it.
Double nicknames for pets, like those that consist of one word and have more than 8 sounds, are best not to use. It will be difficult for a parrot to remember such a nickname, and even more difficult to learn how to pronounce it yourself.
Also, experts do not advise choosing those names in which there are more than 4 vowel sounds - they are too difficult for birds to pronounce.
What sounds should be present?
It is the correct combination of sounds in the pet's nickname that will allow not only to quickly teach him to respond to his name, but also to expand his vocabulary faster. Bird watchers are advised to heed the following guidelines.
- It is best to avoid those nicknames where there are sounds - "l", "ts", "z", "s". Parrots often confuse them with each other and, as a result, cannot pronounce correctly, which only confuses the bird.
- Sounds such as "w", "h", "u", on the contrary, are preferable to include in the name of the bird-boy. As you know, birds are very fond of words with such hissing sounds.
- They also love the "p" sound and can rumble for hours in their cage.
- Don't forget about the vowels. It is better to choose nicknames with such letters in their composition as "e", "a", "y", "i", "e". But it is better to refuse names with sounds that form the letters "I", "u" - the bird will confuse them with sounds that have a simple pronunciation.
- It is optimal to choose nicknames with the following letters: "p", "g", "k", "d". They are easy to remember and, as a result, pronounced.
Of course, each person has their own personal preferences regarding exactly how to name their new feathered pet. However, the above tips from bird watchers are still worth listening to. This is especially important in cases where it is planned not only to give a name, but also subsequently - to teach the pet to talk. If a talking bird is not needed, then you can choose any nice and beautiful name you like.
But it is worth remembering that the parrot himself will try to pronounce his name, and it is better to choose it simple and sonorous.
