Its a blue and gold. He is a male. He's is very outgoing and playful. Want something different or unique. I was getting a girl name lucky. But she had a boy. The lady want a female and I wanted a male. So we switching. Plus it seem that he was more playful with me. And she was more with her. So I think it ended up that was for a good reason. But anyways. Anyone want to start helping me with names.

I've always thought a great macaw name would be: DOOFUS!

Just because they really are that silly/goofy.

Gilbert Oliver, Blue Crown Conure; Georgie, Sun Conure (2/8/01-8/8/12) RIP little girl; Percy, budgie 1993-1999. RIP Pepito-spanish timbrado canary
Any favorite movie/tv characters you can base a name on? Mythology? (i had a car named Minna--Minna von Barnhelm--and one named Freyja. And Gilbert is named after tv character Gil Grissom).

I also think foreign names are fun....you know, names that are normal, common names in another culture but uncommon here. (My dog was Pablo Diego).
I almost named one of my dogs "Alonzo"--it could be lonnie, lonzo, allie, etc (i always imagine myself calling the animal by the diminutive names they wind up with, LOL)

Sven, Olaf (as they can be oafs sometimes) or Gustav - Gussie for short?

Or Gimli, Gandalf, Boromir, Aragorn or Legolas (less frequently used Lord of the Rings names)
