You’re here for one reason, to find the best names for your chickens! You can also create your own in our egg-cellent Chicken Name Generator (more on that later).
So, pull up a perch, because we have the most comprehensive list of names you will ever read. For a quick teaser of our favourites listen to these PLAY.(Audio: Henifer Aniston, Yolko Ono, Snowball. For the boys, Cluck Norris or Axle Crows, or maybe you have a trio of trouble and like the names Cookie, Custard and Cupcake. Sometimes it hard to pass up the old lady names like Dorothy, Delilah and Doris or maybe you have a floc of divas and can call them the Dixie Chicks. Particial to a glass of wine or coffee, how about Merlot, Cabernet and Pinot, or Late, Espresso & Mocha) I won’t give away all of our names here, so be sure to read on to eggsplore the rest of the fabulous ideas.
Like any new pet, naming your chicken is an important part of the adoption process and welcomes them into your eggstended family.
You'll probably have more chickens to name over the years than you'll have cats, dogs, and kids combined…unless you are totally mad. So, keeping the creative ideas flowing and coming up with fun new names can be a challenge.
The options are endless, but not every name out there will suit the pet in question. "You're not really calling it that, are you?" Sound familiar? You probably don't want to go with Groot for your perfectly polished little Frizzle, or Tinkerbell for your rambunctious rooster.
When you're deciding on names for your new poultry pal, there are loads of ideas to eggsplore.
Looking for cute names for your Bantams, or beefy names for your roos? I've lined you up hundreds of cracking names to get those creative coggs turning. I mean who doesn’t love a good chicken pun, lord knows I do!😊
Anyway. Less chat, more chicken! Let's get started and find you the perfect name… I have categorised them for you to make it easier to narrow down your favourites.

Cute Chicken Names
If you name your chicks when they're still squishy fluffballs you won't be able to resist a cutesy name. You might need to keep it gender-neutral if you're naming your newbie early though: Daisy may prove to be Duke in a few weeks!

The arrival of new blood can unsettle the most content of coops and humans!
If you're looking at names, I imagine I'm right to think you're at the very beginning of your chicken-keeper journey or have introduced some new players to your team. Either way…yay you! New chickens can be overwhelming! They're cute but they're complicated. Chickenpedia offers an amazing course on raising baby chicks, it's the perfect course for beginners.
Once you join, you'll have unlimited access to all the information and support you'll need for every step of your journey. Prevention is key and if there anything you take away from this page aside from a chicken name, it’s that you should learn how to do a hen health check to prevent serious illness in your chickens’ futures! If I had a penny for every time a keeper has come to me saying “I wish I had known prior”… Even established flocks can need a little help accepting new challengers to the pecking order. Chickenpedia offers unlimited expert advice on tricky issues like integration and managing behavior. Take a peck…I mean peek here.
