A bit of a late post I know but thought I'd chuck mine in for good measure

I call Niblet (dunno where I got that name from in the 1st place!) NibNob, Nibble-Nibble, sweety-sweety and baby bird. And sometimes also Broccoli Beard when he's got into a mess when eating his greens!

oh let the embarrassment begin! my budgie Qwil i often call Qwily or Qwily boy or instead of pronouncing it like like a feather i say qweil like squeal and drag it on a bit....for jango i call him kiwi alot of the time and i often accuse him of reaching the terrible twos to early and names that suite that follow.

Drake Laurence (sun conure) - Ducky because drakes are ducks; Duck-a-ricious (duckalicious with an asian accent) because he likes sushi; Ducky-Chan same reason; Turducken because he's an ingredient in turducken; Duck Duck dunno why

Xavier (IRN) - "click" avier because the "X" is a click in some African dialects

Bubbles (parrotlet) - Loon, Nut, Nuttley, Psycho because she is (see thread on parrotlets - http://theparrotforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=5178) Bubbaloo; BUBBLES!! (in a high staccato) because it sounds crazy

Every one of those nicknames still make me giggle when I read them!

So, I thought I'd update since I've had JJ and Posei home for a while. JJ ends up being called Pretty Girl, Trouble, Stinker, or Stink-Pot, depending on what she's doing at the time (Notice there are three names with a negative connotation and one positive?), and Posei is usually called Posei, Baby Bird, and Baby.

Aries is officially called:

Aries the hairdresser bird of DOOOOOOOOM.

Officially He also gets called buddy (by my husband), What Bird (when he goes into a fit of 'what, what, what') Sleepy Bird, Baby Boy, Love Bug, Stew (from my sister) Monster Face, Stinky, Pooper, Poops McGee, Sir Messington and Stinky Winkerton

One day, he was screaming at the grandparent's house, my sister peeked her head in and asked him if he wanted to be made into stew...he started head bobbing...and she has called him that ever since.
