Is this a good name for my conure?

Crimson bellied conure
I have a crimson bellied conure and Iā€™ve named him Hedwig. However, Iā€™m not sure if itā€™s just him but he does not respond to his name. Could it be because the name ā€œHedwigā€ is not so prominent compared to names like ā€œKiwiā€ or ā€œLokiā€?

Parrots have to learn what their human names are. You could call him "Dog" or "S**t Head" he won't care, just be consistent when you talk to or about him. Hedwig is a fine name.

PS , please don't name him S**t Head. If you ever need to rehome him and he starts saying "Hi S**t head" it's going to be a tough sell.

I agree with the above, he will learn his name in time.

What a nice name!
Don't worry he can learn it with patience and right training
