A chicken named STEVE

Hello All!  While wondering around, I have noticed many chickens named STEVE.  At first I was amused.  After the 30th chicken named STEVE, I started to rename a few just for some variety.  Then I noticed more, and more, and more!  I started to leave the "STEVE" and just add on to the name, like "A chicken named STEVE again", and "A chicken named STEVE the foolish".  But alas, my creativity has run dry.  I would love some fresh, creative and fun ways to rename these chickens.  I too have fun seeing funny and different names for the chickens.  I would love any input or ideas for new names.  Please don't let all the chickens become STEVE!

  • I saw one named Stevie Nix in those areas that the STEVE chickens were at. I also was renaming away the STEVE's.

  • I did not want to be mean and call out whoever is doing it, it is part of the game.  Rook, I like Don Draper!  I just named one STEVE McQueen.

  • The legion of chickens named STEVE! What a glorious opportunity for the rest of us to do some funny renaming. My first encounter with these birds inspired some poetry, which I have been meaning to post here:

    I just squoze a chicken named STEVE,
    And another darn chicken named STEVE,
    And, another named STEVE?
    Who the heck would BELIEVE
    Chakra Phool is just STEVE, STEVE, STEVE, STEVE, STEVE, STEVE, STEVE, STEVE, STEVE, STEVE.

    I think there may be something wrong with the meter in that last line, but I can't seem to pinpoint it.

  • LOL I love it, but it makes it difficult to keep track of squeezings :)

  • I figure it goes with the general lack of imagination when it comes to naming. I don't mind what you call the animals, provided it's not the same thing 100 million times over. 

    Same with the single-letter animals. If you mis-hit when you're doing your thing, that's cool. If it's every time, learn to use the escape key and don't un-name animals. Also, don't purposely label every single animal on a street 'Q'. See paragraph 1.

  • I rename all the chickens I (over) squeeze 'aaa' or 'dddd', but not on purpose;) With the 'Steves' I usually just put a 'Not' in front of it. Most of my home chickens are named Breakfast, Lunch, Brunch, Dinner, Linner, etc., plus tagged for future meals as in Fried, Roasted, Braised, Casserole, Nuggets, Soup, etc.

  • Since my RL name is Steve and seeing legions of chickens with my name makes me stand up and check my seat for eggs I tend to change them all to something completely non-steve-ish, though a few I have renamed as Esteban and Etienne.

  • I change them to Seve, Sergio, Stephen, Sven, Stefano, Esteban or some other Steve-ish name.  But never two on the same street with the same name.  Remember when you were a kid and someone else in class had the same name as you?  That was no fun!

  • Along the same lines as Dreidre, I renamed about 50 of them with female names starting with S.

    Arcturus is right - call the animals whatever you want but don't call them all the same thing.

    Someone a while back suggested some sort of limit/throttle for animal naming that would prevent Ur being overtaken by one person with too much time and too little imagination. A relatively simple throttle would be to track names you'd given to animals over the last 24 hours and prevent you duplicating them.

  • Someone should start a group against the name Steve for animals. All these people would do all day long is just rename Steve to something else. Seems like a good thing for level 60s right now. :P

  • Nice idea, Snazzlefrazz =) Alternatively, just limit the names on a per street basis to be unique - something along the lines of 'There is already a <type of animal> with that name! Pick something more imaginative'

  • Whoever is doing it will get tired of it eventually, and I like the challenge of coming up with new names. It was the same with Desantis, the ddd or aaa (which are directional arrows being hit), the M### ones that went one for a few days (I figured someone was working on a badge and tracking their progress). I like to rename them for the cast of an old TV show. The chickens on my street are all named for characters on Bewitched.
