• These parrots madly love their owners and are always open to communication with them. But a lack of attention affects their behavior badly - they can easily run wild and even become aggressive.
• Corells are extremely curious. If the owner sits next to read a book, the parrot will definitely look into it. And also he is interested in observing all the movements of a person around the room. On a joint walk, the Corella will not move a step away from its owner.
• These birds love the sounds of a female voice; it is easier for them to perceive and assimilate. Therefore, it is often women who become their “favorites” among family members.

These birds learn quickly and are always ready to support communication with the owner. They remember their nickname in the first place, so it is important to choose an interesting nickname for them. Check out the general guidelines for choosing a parrot name.

• The name must be original. The nickname "Gosh" and the like have long been not considered interesting, in addition, each owner of such a bird will want to distinguish his pet from thousands of others, giving him an unusual nickname.
• Despite the originality, you should not pick up a name too tricky. In an attempt to stand out, you can go so far that the parrot simply can not pronounce its own nickname. Therefore, the name should be easy for the pet itself. It is better that the nickname contains a hissing and whistling consonant ("c", "h", "w", "u"), voiced "p", as well as the letters "k", "f", "g". As for the vowels, “a,” “y,” “me,” “e,” will do. Parrots really like this sound series, so they will easily and undisguisedly enjoy pronouncing their name.
• The nickname should be short. It is better that it has one or two syllables. So it will be more convenient for the bird, and for the owner. But, of course, there are exceptions. If the corella has outstanding learning abilities, then you can call it a longer name, consisting of three syllables.
• Experts do not recommend giving nicknames with letters that are difficult for the bird: "l", "n", "y", "c", "z", "o", "u", "e", this also includes the combination of "j" or "dz". These birds do not have vocal cords, the language helps them to imitate sounds, so it will be physically difficult and even impossible for her to pronounce some letters.
• And also do not call the bird a double name. The parrot simply will not accept the second nickname and will not pronounce it. Yes, and after a while the owner himself will begin to reduce these two names during a conversation with a parrot. In order to prevent confusion, it is better to dwell on a simple nickname in a word.
• Corella masters the intonation of the owner well and copies it when pronouncing the words, especially his name. Therefore, it is important to clearly pronounce the pet's nickname, not to swallow sounds, otherwise the bird will copy the slurred pronunciation, then it will be difficult to retrain it.
• Names for Corelli are selected depending on gender - whether it is a boy or a girl. If the sex cannot be determined, then the name must be chosen neutral, for example, “Busya” or “Ruri”.
• Do not rush to choose a nickname; you need to study the habits of a new feathered friend for some time. Otherwise, having called the parrot the Grumbler, you can get into trouble if he does not possess such a quality of character. You should also not attribute to the bird far-fetched behavior. It is better to emphasize the individual characteristics of the name.
• Experts in ornithology do not recommend to name a parrot in honor of one of the family members, as well as all close relatives or friends. The bird should understand that you are addressing it to her, and not to dad, the child or the neighbor who came to visit.
• No need to name the bird in honor of some modern political figure, for example, "Zhirik". It happens that the popularity of these people fades, the nickname becomes not only irrelevant, but even unpleasant to the owner. So, he will rarely pronounce the name of Corella, thereby leaving the bird without communication and dooming it to loneliness.

A special mention deserves a list of nicknames that are somehow related to the interests of the owner. It has already been said that you should not call a bird by the name of some modern figure, but the names of politicians, revolutionaries and other personalities who have already firmly entered history will do. Therefore, you can safely call your parrot Caesar or Fidel. Here is another list of ideas.

Do not forget about the movie, there are also examples of successful names for birds, for example, "Harry" or "Zorro". It so happens that the owners can name Corella in honor of their favorite actor or actress, for example, “Kurt” (Kurt Russell) or “Monica” (Monica Bellucci).
