What's in a name?

[krosess]

Hi everyone, I recently adopted a brand new yellow naped amazon. She just got her DNA back as FEMALE!! I'm so excited, and she has been a wonderful addition to our house, but I have no idea what to name her. The breeder had named her Tonka, but I really don't like it. Plus she is just the sweetest most snugly little girl, so I don't think it fits. So I have come to you guys to get some ideas. Here is a small list of names I have been thinking about, but nothing strikes me as perfect!! Any and all suggestions would be great!!! Thank you.

Phoebe
Hero
Tess
Heidi

You could call her Mei Mei (little sister). My little sister always loved cuddling.

Or maybe Jules.

I think instead of Tess, Tessa. The "a" makes it more feminine. Good luck!

Marie- I had originally thought of Tessa =)

Tessa sounds a bit like a grown up bird that did something wrong, "Tessa! What ARE you doing!"

What about Tessie? In English I suppose you will spell it Tessy?
