Hello everyone, I am new here and very excited to have found this site as I have just bought a four-month old IRN recently. This site really helped me a lot as I couldnt find any other information on line that's well written and researched.

Thank you for making me feel welcome by responding to my post. My IRN is green in color. He/she is actually a typical case of neglect from an over crowded and small time breeder. The breeder tells me that he/she is only three months old but I believe he/she might be six months -- as he/she seemed to be molting and also some significant markings are already showing around the neck.
I took the chance to take him/her, in spite the fact that he/she is never tamed in the beginning. Yet I couldnt leave the IRN behind in spite of its background. I havent named my baby yet. I have tried a few names like Jamie, Oliver and David - yet its not suitable. Could any one help me out with names please?

It is hard to find a suitable name when you don't know the gender of the bird.
I usually try to choose a name to suit the personality of the bird. Or sometimes I give it a nickname and it ends up sticking lol. Other times I name a bird or pet on what was happening at the time.
haha....just playing with your forum name and come up with these....
akmar reversed ramka
ramak
krama
karma
marak
Tell us a bit about your birds personality or any little quirks that s/he has, and we might be able to throw suggestions around for you.

Thanks Pinkdevil -- your suggestion is quite legit. I like all of them but Karma sounds good. My two old son -- (who really loves the IRN) actually speaks to the bird more than he does with me. This is a good sign. Its the KARMA here. As I want to instill compassion (among other things) with the kids. My baby IRN is quite wild, as he has been neglected but I strongly believe that s/he can be tamed. I have seen intelligent signs in s/he whenever I speak in a low tone. As s/he would look straight into my eye... for quite a while-- I find this strange as most birds are quite timid if untamed.
Ok thats it - KARMA
I m very happy with that name . Hugs
