I have wanted one of these for ages! Friend of the family didn't have time to look after her parrot so I've adopted the little feathered freak. He's a blue-crowned conure - the photo is terrible because he's scared of the camera (and everything else in the room, including me) but he's chowing down on his favourite treat, a dried chilli.
Second pic isn't mine but that's what he'll look like if I can ever get within 20 metres of him with a camera.

oh yeah, suggestions for names would be welcome
-
Nice finish!
I'd say it'll sound great with a set of mules. Post some sound clips!

Are you mental?
Back to the Parrot, why don't you call him Chilli Plops.
-
He's astonishingly quiet so far but I'm expect a squawking fit soon.

I like parrots... congrats.

Nope, just got a lame sense of humour.
-
Hmmm... Never been a fan. This is me in Cyprus this year.
Yours looks quite nice though. You could call him "Trilogy". Because he's "Suite"...
Boom, boom.
-
You should teach him how to say, "Help! They've turned me into a parrot!"
If he were mine, I'd name him Steven.
-
Well he's been here 5 hours and now he's happy to take chillis and monkey nuts from me. Still no mad squawking frenzy, that's a surprise.
Parrots are ace. Everyone should own a parrot.
-
Well, if he likes CHilli and takes Monkey nuts you should combine the names of his favourite foods and call him Chinkey.

Although it could be embarrassing if you happen to be calling him just as some visitors arrive from Beijing......
-
Call it Romancho.
-
Perhaps call it Monty .......... :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npjOSLCR2hE (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npjOSLCR2hE)

We've named him Momo ... mainly because his previous owner called him Moses, that wasn't staying and I wanted something that sounded similar so he stands a chance of recognising his name while I train him up.
Here's Momo in all his glory, eating his favourite treat.

Nice vid although if you want to get him used to being called Momo you shouldn't really say "what are you doing bird?" to him!
EDIT - I realise you may have been talking to a lady.

Yes but ...

My suggestion for a name is Sketch.

^ Good name for a dead parrot.

In my head I read that post to the tune of White Wedding by Billy Idol
