Need a name for our new *baby*

No no girls, not a yorkie LOL
Some time ago when we took Jolly, our cockatiel to the breeder/rescue to have her wings clipped, as she has free run of the house, and i don't want to grow her wings coz we have large windows, flying into them could really injure her.
Anyhow, while we were there, i asked them if i could put my name on the list for a baby cockatiel, a friend for Jolly. The breeder said it could take some time coz of the season.
This afternoon we got an unexpected call from the breeder to tell we have a baby, strange enough we bought her cage last week, but never expected it to happen so soon.
He said we could come have a look today, or tomorrow, ofcourse i HAD to go today. She has been tammed, and is soooooooooooooooooo SWEET!! I attached a pic of her, and Jolly, the darker one in the first pic is the baby.
Any idea's for a name is welcome!

Congratulations Mandy on your new addition.

I have been afraid of birds since I was a very young girl. I wish I could get over it, but don't think I ever will. I'm even afraid of dead or fake birds, can you believe it? It doesn't matter what kind of bird, pets, chickens, ducks, you name it, I'm deathly afraid of them.

I do have feeders up for the yellow finches, we had 7 pair last summer, but they are outside and I'm inside. We also have feeders up for Hummingbirds. I never wanted my son to be afraid of them like I am, so we have had feeders up since he was small. I don't know for sure why I am afraid, but I don't like their eyes, beaks and feet the most. That sure sounded dumb...lol but I am just afraid of every bit of them.

Can I ask a question??? If they have free run of the house, does that mean they are trained to potty somewhere? Are there potty trained birds?

How pretty she is! They both are actually!
I love the colors on birds. I'm not real wide awake yet so no names pop to mind. LOL

Enjoy her!
