Little Parrot finally picked a name

[cnyguy]

This morning I went through our usual routine of running names by Little Parrot while he was having his breakfast. Just whatever names popped into my head at the moment. As usual most of them got no reaction; he just kept on eating. But when I tried Nelson, he looked up from the food dish and made a little squawk. So I took that as a sign that he wants to be called Nelson, so from now on, Nelson is his official name. The name wasn't inspired by any specific Nelson. Throughout the years there have been Nelsons famous for various reasons, but Little Parrot wasn't named for them. Nor was he named for a cousin I had who lived in England, nor the man that one of my uncles worked for whose name was Nelson. But Nelson it is. Naturally I'll still call him Little Parrot sometimes. We're both used to it and he is a little parrot. But officially he is now Nelson.

Oh I think that's an awesome name, even better that your smart little guy picked it himself!

Seriously, though, I like the name.

There are not many Little Parrots named Nelson on PF- your bsby may be the first! Lots of Kiwis Tikis Cocos and Mangos so it's great that when I read a post that mentions Nelson I won't wonder which Nelson it is!
