MotherBear will become famous soon enough
Default Name the kiwi
I've given the little fella/fellahine a thread of his/her own.

These are names from an Aussie website to give us some ideas. There's also meanings with the names. These are the ones beginning with K but there are others, of course.

Boys' names
Girls' names

I quite like Kai for a short name. Kane? Kaspar? There's heaps of names on there so we should be able to pick something suitable.

How about something you wouldn't expect like.....Ralph, OK that one wasn't very imaginative......Bob oh dear they're getting worse. Do we want a warm fuzzy name or something a little odd that will stick in your mind?

I thought about Kermit the Kiwi, but that name is too widely associated with green frogs. I also considered Tufty because our kiwi has a tuft sticking out of the top of his head.

I adopted a penguin called Gilbert - he had a tuft too. Perhaps we could name him after my penguin?

We still have him at the moment so be quiet in case he hears you

Anyway - what is wrong with the name 'Gary'?
