9/26--THE CONTEST HAS NOW ENDED ~ THANK YOU TO ALL WHO ENTERED. I WILL BE BACK MONDAY WITH A WINNER :)
With 20+ chickens, not everyone gets a name--I could never remember or keep them all straight. But there are always a few birds with a unique look or character that we do name, like Rooster Mike and Miss Biddy, who sadly, due to an encounter with Mr Fox, are no longer with us...
So, it seems to me that our new rooster must have a name, but I just haven't come up with anything good...
And so this is the challenge ~ I would like to have a giveaway contest. The contest will be to 'name that rooster' ....JPG)
And just so you understand his character, I will try to describe him a bit::::he is very busy, hardly ever standing still
::a little geeky and spastic, actually
.JPG)
::is very inquistive::trys his hardest to to get to a worm or bug first, then a hen usually steals it away from him
If you would like to enter the contest, please leave a comment with your name idea by end of day Friday, 9/25. I will put all ideas up for a vote with the family and announce a winner on Monday, 9/28.
Oh, and the winner's prize is a copy of Blogging for Bliss...
Thanks for helping me out!

"Kanye",after the "artist" Kanye West. Something about trying to get to the worm first, and the spastic part. It just suits.
ReplyDeleteHave fun naming him!
posting again under my blog account so you can FIND me IF I should actually win.
ReplyDeleteWalter.
ReplyDeleteSoon as I saw him I thought of that name. Not sure why, as I don't know anyone or any characters named Walter for him to resemble. It just seems to fit.
Ozzy Osbourne! No doubt about it!
ReplyDeleteHe looks like a "Ludwig" to me:>)
ReplyDeleteDon King... ite his hair!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful bird, he looks like a Ferdinand to me.
ReplyDeleteRooster Cogburn
ReplyDeleteOr Bob Marley
ReplyDeleteHe looks like a "Mr.Bo Diddley" to me Like he's got the soul and the groove deep down inside him and it's trying to come out but it don't quite connect..
ReplyDeleteI enjoy your blog btw
My husband says he looks like Rod Stewart
ReplyDeleteI know he is a he, but being black and white he reminds me of Cruella De Vil from 101 Dalmatians. Perhaps he could be called Crowella?!
ReplyDeleteLisa
How about Napoleon? I don't know why but he reminds me of the movie Napoleon Dynamite... funny characters and odd movie!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun!! I first thought something of how he looks a little "Artsy-Fartsy"... don't know why really, it just looks like he could possess that sort of character.
ReplyDeleteAnd, cool! I was just thinking about this book the other day - how that I would like to get myself a copy, sometime. Maybe, just maybe this will be my lucky (blessed) day.
"The Bird Formerly Known as Prince", funny seems lots of us thought of musician/performer types!
ReplyDeleteHe looks like a Spike to me. I don't know why, but that's the first thing that came to mind. Or Cash or Clyde.
ReplyDeleteI think by the way he seems to be dancing with that nifty footwork that Mr Bo Jangles suits him.
ReplyDeleteDebbie
My very first thought after your description was Forest Gump ;-) But after looking at the third picture, with his wild haircut, I think he's Santana.
ReplyDeleteReminds me of Elmer Fudd or Mr. Magoo. Completely lovable but totally miss understood. Dennis the Menace had occurred to me too. :)
ReplyDeleteHe reminds me of Edward Scissorhands - remember that movie with Johnny Depp? That character was geeky and spastic, and they also have the same hairdo.
ReplyDeleteStanley Zbornsk, after Dorothy's clueless yet loveable ex-husband on the beloved show Golden Girls.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw that last picture with the feathers under his beak, the name that came to me was "Bandit". It reminded me of the mask that bandits wear.
ReplyDeletediana.h@comcast.net
How about JayLeno...it rolls off the tongue pretty fast. He kinda looks like him. Or how about Mr. BUGZ. This is fun. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteP.Jack
jagger. he's got that spastic scrawney rocker look.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking he looks like . . . "WaterLoo Clyde"
ReplyDeleteI know he is a boy, but he sure it beautiful. With all those feathers in his hat and his fantastic fluff "Dame Edna" came to mind.......
ReplyDeleteBecause he is inquisitive and a bit spastic and geeky and just misses getting the worm/bug, I think his name should be Barney Fife (from the Andy Griffith Show). I enjoy your blog very much! Thank you for sharing your amazing creativity and skill(s)!
ReplyDeleteYour personality profile kicked out an old memory from the Archies...
ReplyDeleteJughead.
--Vicki K
He reminds me of Michael Jackson. I would call him Michael.
ReplyDeleteThat hair and the strut just shout John Travolta in Grease to me! LOL So I think his name should be Zuko after 'Danny Zuko'
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing that last picture, it came to me, "Spaz!" This seems to fit him to a T.
ReplyDeleteWhat a hilarious rooster. We got a good laugh out of this!
Mick...you know, Jagger.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't help but think of Liberace.
ReplyDeletehttp://thisdayinbaldhistory.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/liberace_fur1.jpg
I like the name SCOUT from the movie To Kill a Mockingbird...Too bad He is not a She because he reminds me of Phyllis Diller!!!
ReplyDeleteplease enter the name "Elton John"
ReplyDeleteas suggested by my 9 year old son Douglas.
thanks!
Cool Rooster!
Hannity
ReplyDeleteDeb, I suggest "Prince Albert". He looks a bit royal with that hairdo going on but by your description such as geeky, well Albert fits:-)
ReplyDeleteHe should be named "Sharpton" :)
ReplyDeleteIngrid
All I can think of is "Barney Fife" How spastic was he????LOL!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI had a hen just like him one time (the free gift from the hatchery) and I named her Phyllis after my childhood friends mother. She acted just like her. Very bossy and very nosy!!!!
My first thought - The Mad Hatter! Can't wait to hear what you choose! ~Adrienne~
ReplyDeleteAlso I always loved the Andy Griffith episodes wher Barney would run his hands thru his hair when he was frustrated and it looked just like your roosters topknot!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh Well I was interupted while writing my comment and Barney is already taken.....SORRY but it's still a good name!!
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was "Spaz" but I see it's already been suggested. :) Cute rooster, btw.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun!
ReplyDeleteI am not sure that this person would truly fit his personality, but the first name that came to mind is Albert...after Albert Einstein. He just looks like him to me...a genius in his own quiet way, a geek sometimes and such a surprise for all of us in terms of his quiet, albeit, unimaginable intelligence.
I think you should name him....bodacious. You could call him Bo if he insists on being trendy and having a nickname. With an attitude and a look like that, it certainly needs to be bold. Thanks for letting all of us join in on the fun of naming him. What a great prize you are giving away too!
ReplyDeleteSheldon! The geeky and spastic qualities just have to be offset with frustrated high intellect.
ReplyDeleteI think "Punkydoodle". He's got that sort of "punk" look but his personality sounds a little bit "doodled"!
ReplyDeleteElvis....he doesn't stand still! :D Too cute!
ReplyDeleteDebbie
I think he looks like he struts like Mick Jagger. But don't enter me because I already have the book!
ReplyDeleteManuela
The Nutty Professor. That is my second choice, someone already took Liberace...which was my first choice!
ReplyDeleteWhat a character!
Einstein was my first guess, but someone already took that name.
ReplyDeleteMy husband suggest Fred, or Shaggy. We are Scooby Doo lovers around here. :)
Blessings,
Chas
http://www.homesteadblogger.com/chas
LOL, what a great idea. I have no name for your rooster, but I think he is just the cutest thing with his wild hair.
ReplyDeleteWait, I know....Sideshow Bob, that is who he reminds me of.
God bless.
David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust comes to mind when I look at that fine rooster.
ReplyDeleteI say Jareth, that's the name of the goblin king in Labyrinth played by David Bowie. I SWEAR I didn't read the other messages before I thought of it, but it's funny that the last message mentions David Bowie. Weird.
ReplyDeletelooks like Mac from Chicken Run could be his mother. She would name him something sensible and refined such as "Walter." You have to say it with her inflection.
ReplyDeleteSpiff.
ReplyDeleteIt's already been suggested, but "Spike" is the first thing that popped into my head.
ReplyDeleteBlessings!
Pam

What a fun contest Deb! He sure is a cutie.
ReplyDeleteAfter discussing him with my honey, we came up with Beaker (like from the Muppets) :)
Have a great evening :)
Sharon
G'day, I love animals with human names so I'm thinking "Bob".
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing like a spastic chook! Cheers
The first thing I thought of when I saw him was that Sargent Pepper would be a great name.
ReplyDeleteBarbara
What a pleasantly quirky little guy this rooster is. I think "Mr. Doodle" suits him to a T - as in Cock-A-Doodle-Do! Whatever you name him, he'll be a wonderful addition to your family!
ReplyDeleteMaestro. He looks like a madman.... Isn't he too cute?
ReplyDeleteRod Stewart!! That unique look, no doubt reminds me of him! Seems as though they may have the same energy level as well. That man never slows down!
ReplyDeleteOh, yes Rod Stewart!!
Oh, I love him! We have had chickens for years and I will always have them. I think he looks like a "Dandy"...likes himself as all roosters do, shows off for the girls and is an English gentleman all rolled up in one.
ReplyDeleteThe minute I saw him I thought of the name "Frazzle" don't know why, but he just reminds me of that.. He is a cutie..
ReplyDeleteHe looks like a "Frazzle" to me. He is a cutie.. definitely a Frazzle..
ReplyDeleteSorry, Deb, I accidentally posted when I was editing our teen blog.. oops. Didn't know how to erase or that I had posted on it.. Sorry
ReplyDeleteSnerdly came immediately to mind. He is certainly a character!
ReplyDeleteHe reminds me, both in character and looks, of Mr. Collins, from the BBC version of Pride and Prejudice with Colin Firth. Mr. Collins even wore his hair in the same style!
ReplyDelete"A giveaway contest" name that Rooster. I read quickly through your note, and I didn't notice it was a "he", but when I first saw the picture it looked like a big hat with feathers on a lady and I thought of Holly Dolly, from the movie. Even though your chicken is actually a Rooster, I think "Dolly" would be a fun name as he looks "all Doll'd up" :)
ReplyDeleteClaudia
kikiolive@usfamily.net
He is just a riot!! My vote is for "Ed Grimly"
ReplyDeleteHe is definitely a "TopHat"
ReplyDeleteCooper. After the rock legend Alice Cooper and the fact that he may spend some time 'cooped' up.
ReplyDeleteHe looks like 'Mr. Magoo" to me. Remember him, no matter what he tried to do, well, it wasn't quite what he planned .
ReplyDeleteBlessings from Kansas!
Gail
What a funny little guy and such pretty coloring. I'd say he's a Zeke if I ever saw one. What a fun giveaway contest!
ReplyDeleteCathy ♥
mr. henson!
ReplyDeletebecause of jim henson and his phantastic creatures...
His name is Mortimer.
ReplyDelete"Paul Stanley" one of the Kiss band members. Originally I thought he looked like one of the other members but Paul Stanley just sounded like the right name for his personality.
ReplyDeleteHi Deb,
ReplyDeleteHis mane reminds me of Phyllis Diller. He obviously can't be a Phyllis so I would call him Diller.
I love your blog by the way - thank you for all the hard work that you put into it...much appreciated!
best wishes
Mary
I'm going to suggest Theophilus, Theo for short. And here's why:
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a young lass, expecting our first child, dear husband suggested that name "because that is the-awfulest baby I've ever seen." Evidently, he'd heard that joke and just had to share it.
I'm suggesting it as an endearing name, not a derision. :)
How about Beaker. He was a character from the muppets. He was the spastic and fumbling lab assistant to Dr. Bunson Honeydew.
ReplyDeleteHe looks like a "Reggie" to me!!
ReplyDeleteAnd that came to mind BEFORE I read the Jughead suggestion!! LOL!!!
Cute rooster, by the way!!
Plucky
ReplyDeleteSomething about the head:)
Plucky
ReplyDeleteSomething about his top hat:)
The Funky Geek.
ReplyDeleteIs his breed meant to look like that? At least he'll be easy to find. So pleased he has a distinctive personality even if he lacks a little in brain power - the lad must be related to my daft Zebbycat
Hi Deb, Love your blog and visit daily, but don't comment much.
ReplyDeleteHe's a "handsome" fella, but given his personality, my family would dub him "DUFUS". Not sure if that's how it's spelled, but it sounds like "doofus".
Neat contest!
I know he's a rooster but, all I think when I see him is "Phyllis Dillar."
ReplyDeleteI know he's a rooster but, all I think when I see him is "Phyllis Dillar."
ReplyDeleteDexter for the geekiness.
ReplyDeleteI think you should name him Edward, like Edward Scissorhands. The hair definitely fits and the traits seem to match, too.
ReplyDeleteHow about Pivoting Pierre? He would be like a French version of Speedy Gonzales :)
ReplyDeleteKelly
www.IHaveANotion.blogspot.com
I immediately thought of Lady GaGa and her weirdness. How 'bout Rooster GaGa?
ReplyDeleteDonna
First of all, he is absolutely adorable! What a great hairdo. But anyway, I don't know if you watch the show The Big Bang Theory (which is not a scientific documentary, but a hilarious tv series starring a cast of geeks), but I think he looks like a Sheldon, which is the main character of the show. Can't wait to see what his name finally is!
ReplyDeleteIf he was a girl I would say Phyliss Diller..But since it is a fella I say *Sir Top em Hat..*
ReplyDeletefaythinhim54@yahoo.com
Kramer from Seinfield seems to fit him. Just wanted to share. Have a blessed day!!!
ReplyDeleteI think "Bliss" for all the enjoyment and entertainment he provides you!
ReplyDeleteI don't know why but I thought of Rocky... Jamie V in MT
ReplyDeleteamzanioli@yahoo.com
http://rem-nants.blogspot.com
He's adorable ~ love the hair ...made me think of Phyllis Diller ~ so my name suggestion would be Phill Diller :-)
ReplyDeleteThis fella is sort of regal, isn't he? Looks like a King Fritz to me....You've had some wonderful suggestions. I'm anxious to see who he turns out to be!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Spencer
"Wild thing"
ReplyDeleteIt's Rod Stewart...I'm sure of it. I even did a google image search of the him. So, you could go with "Rodster the Rooster" or simply "Rod".
ReplyDeleteWhat a great contest Deb! He's adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteI think he looks like the Rooster version of Jerry Lee Lewis - Jerry Lee Lewis with his hair all crazy while he's banging away on the piano that is!
"Mister Jerry Lee Lewis the Spastic Rooster." That's my suggestion.
To be shortened, of course, to "Lewis" although secretly he thinks "Jerry Lee" is much cooler.
ReplyDeleteHis mottled colors and pattern remind me of the diving bird known as the loon! And with his wild-looking head plummage...how about Mr. Loony-toon!
ReplyDeleteLyn H.
An animal that spectacularly odd needs a name entirely his own. I suggest Ebblefarb.
ReplyDeleteHe sure looks like he is having a bad hair day! How about Gonzo, Merle, Ludwig or Sweeny Todd? Yeah, I like Sweeny Todd.....you have to have seen the movie with Johnny Depp though.
ReplyDeleteWoody
ReplyDeleteThe description reminds me of the cartoon character from Bugs bunny from Tazmania...about about Taz?
ReplyDeletePrince Strut and Stuff!
ReplyDeleteLove that hair....Id call him Slash after the guitar player lol.
ReplyDeleteLooks like and Eggbert to me!!
ReplyDeleteFrank or Matrix
ReplyDelete;)anyway, he looks cute :)

Okay, I was going to suggest "El Jefe" spanish for "The Boss", but I have to say I agree with Paige, KANYE. Send my vote to Paige!
ReplyDeleteJessica,
http://joymariesboutique.blogspot.com/
He looks like a King Richard to me :)
ReplyDeleteSylvester! Like the cartoon character. He is a mad looking bird but lovable in a way!
ReplyDeleteI think that rooster is beautiful and you should call him guapo - handsome in spanish, for a little foreign flair
ReplyDeletechristine

"Jackson" for yes, Michael Jackson, the hair the unusual feathers etc. From Pam in Texas
ReplyDeleteLove your blog
I think he looks like a "Wylie" like the coyote in road runner,Or else call him "Road Runner" and his call name be "runner".
ReplyDeleteI think he looks like a Reptar.
ReplyDeleteI really think Einstein would be appropriate. He's sweet and a bit of a nerd and he has the wild thing going on atop of his handsome head. You could call him Albert if Einstein was too heady. If he was my handsome pretty boy rooster it would definitely be Einstein. The eccentric scientist twist suits him.
ReplyDeletethere is no doubt about it, he is definately a
ReplyDelete"Ringo Starr"!!!
it's quick & easy to say and fits him to a tee!
karri
okay...I have two names to offer up but technically they're the same person...either Uncle Jed or Buddy Ebson. Do you remember on the Beverly Hillbillies when Uncle Jed would dance that hoedown kinda, leg stomp dance. That's your rooster!
ReplyDeleteHow about Phil? I know that doesn't sound very creative. However, he looks just like Phyllis Diller!
ReplyDeleteWe used to have a hen that looked just like your roo - we called her Phyllis Diller! I think I would name him 'Spike'.
ReplyDeleteFunny, I just did a chicken post on my blog too!http://tenthingsfarm.blogspot.com/2009/09/nadine.html
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteI think he looks like Gelman, the producer from the Regis and Kelly show.
ReplyDeleteAlso, a little like he should be Mr Deville, Cruella's husband.
Hehe, first I saw him I thought he looks like that kiwi-bird.
ReplyDeleteBut then it hit me - he reminds me somehow... Michael Douglas! Sorry, I can't help it :DDD So could he be Douglas?
Of course, thinking of your description of him, you could call him also Einstein....
I'm thinking "Corky"..just came to me when I looked at him!
ReplyDeleteBeethoven! As in the classical composer, not the dog movie. After Beethoven had given several passionate performances, his hair was just like your rooster's top. We have a small sheep farm and I know what you mean about not everyone gets a name but some personalities just stand out and it's difficult to come up with a creative something. God bless! ~Lori
ReplyDeleteHow about "Ramone"? He reminds me of the lead singer of the rock group by the same name. What a character!
ReplyDeleteIt took me a day to think about this and I came up with Ringo from the Beatles. Yes we are Beatles fans!
ReplyDeleteHow about "Professor" actually reminds me of one of mine!! Eww! :) Have fun picking!!
ReplyDeleteSuzanne
I'd like to suggest Norman as in Norman Wisdom. Sounds and looks like the same sort of hapless character. I'd love a copy of that book but there are so many great suggestions already.
ReplyDeleteHow about Worchester - sounds like rooster :-)
ReplyDeleteMr T
ReplyDeleteI gotta go with the Rod Stewart suggestion--I think it would pay off in a chuckle every time you saw either the rooster or the singer!
ReplyDeleteMr. Doubtfire! That is it for sure!:o) Sweet contest, and an even more sweet rooster!:o)
ReplyDeleteSmiles....
Beverly
I would name him "Bill" after both Bill Gates (your description sounds much like what I have read of Mr. Software) and the song "won't you marry me, Bill?" since I am sure he is quite popular with the "ladies!:
ReplyDeleteI thought of "Donald Trump". It's a hair thing!
ReplyDeleteRowdy, Ruffles, Rupert, or Rocket
ReplyDeletethanks for the contest!
Lu
tonya@wimberly.com
I think he looks like Ichabod Crane. My sister solved the problem of having too many hens to name by calling them all Shirley.
ReplyDeleteI immediately thought of Mr. Jagger but "Bee in the balm" beat me to it.
ReplyDeleteDeb:
ReplyDeleteLove your blog and the waffle dishcloth!!
How about Checkered Flag for a name since the rooster is black and white?
The KING! looks like he's wearing a crown and reminds me of the Madagascar King JULIAN!!!!
ReplyDeletehere's the only video I found that gives him any justice: http://www.videosift.com/video/Madagascar-King-Julian-I-Like-to-Move-It-Music-Video
Screech----from Saved by the Bell!
ReplyDeleteTaz the Spaz or Urkel come to mind. Lovely bird!
ReplyDeleteIs he much of a fighter? How about "Cluck Norris" (Claw-ratay champion and star of Good Guys Wear Black Feathers)? Or is he more of a gentleman? Then I would go with "Cluck Gable" (from Gone with the Hen).
ReplyDeleteKing Victor would be my guess. He definately looks like royalty. Interesting rooster. I have never seen any like this guy.
ReplyDeleteOh, good! I can still play. I think he looks like a 'Chester'! Twyla
ReplyDeletethe name "Ringo" was the first thing that came to mind when i saw the picture
ReplyDeletebilly bob rooster.......
ReplyDeleteHe looks like a Dr. Seuss character! How about Fizza-ma-wizza-ma-dill the biggest bird in the world from "If I Ran the Zoo." Of course, you could call him Fizzie for short!!
ReplyDeleteI know this is late, but I wanted
ReplyDeleteto put my two cents in anyway.
I like the name "Hairy." He reminds me of the show "Hair"
on Broadway years ago. Kind of wild, kind of crazy. I can hear
the songs playing in my head now.
Thanks in advance.

I am too late for the contest, but I couldn't resist. I thought of Faulkner; a lot of sound but not a lot of fury. : )
ReplyDeleteMay as well throw mine into the hat....."Sescret Agent Man". The last picture was the inspiration.
ReplyDeletehe is too precious.....
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see which name you choose!
Our roo is Captain Jack {yep we are Johnny Depp fans}
