Hello, feathered friends and fellow chicken enthusiasts! In my previous blog post, Naming Baby Chickens: Cluckin Good Names Perfect for Black History Month, I embarked on the delightful journey of naming my new baby chickens.
Thanks to your creative suggestions and a few last-minute inspirations, I am thrilled to introduce the final lineup of our peeping proteges.
Each chick’s name pays homage to iconic Black artists and leaders, reflecting their unique personalities and quirks.
But that is not all. To celebrate this naming extravaganza, I have curated a special selection of chicken-themed cups, mugs, and glasses from the CupofMood Shop. Now, you can sip your favorite beverage while joining us on this clucking adventure.
So, now, without further ado, let me introduce the stars of the coop!
Chikki Minaj: The Rap Sensation of the Roost
Move over, Nicki. Our Chikki Minaj struts her stuff with sass and flair. This little diva commands attention with her vibrant energy and is not shy about voicing her opinions—especially when it is feeding time.
Sip Like a Star: Channel Chikki’s boldness with the Oh-La-La Chicken Mug. Its whimsical design adds a dash of fun to your morning routine.
Hennifer Clucksdson: The Vocal Virtuoso
Inspired by the powerhouse Jennifer Hudson, Hennifer Clucksdson belts out chirps that could rival any diva. Her soulful peeps are the soundtrack of our mornings.
A Mug with a Melody: Celebrate Hennifer’s musical spirit with the Gibson Rooster Coffee Cup. It is perfect for those who sing before they have had their coffee.
Fun Fact: My admiration for Jennifer Hudson deepened after watching her discuss her unique mug collection on The Colbert Show.
She selects a different mug each day to set her mood—a tradition I wholeheartedly embrace. Check out the video below to see her in action.
HenYonce: The Queen Bee of the Coop
All hail HenYonce! This chick exudes confidence and loves being the center of attention. With her striking yellow feathers and a chic black stripe, she is always ready for a close-up.
Drink in Diva Style: Embrace your inner queen with the Warren Kimble Rooster Folk Art Mug. Its artistic flair matches HenYonce’s star quality.
Kenchick Lamar: The Cool and Collected Lyricist
Do not let his small stature fool you—Kenchick Lamar packs a punch with his dynamic personality. Much like Kendrick Lamar, this little guy is cool, collected, and always observing his surroundings.
Sip with Swagger: Enjoy your brew in the Williams Sonoma Rooster Mug. It is the perfect blend of style and substance, just like Kenchick.
Maya Eggelou: The Poetic Soul
Yes, I did, indeed name of my baby chickens after Ms Maya Angelou herself! One reason is because Maya Eggelou, with her elegant gray and black plumage, brings a calming presence to the coop. Her contemplative demeanor reminds us of the profound words of her namesake, Maya Angelou.
Poetry in a Cup: Reflect on life’s beauty with the Brandon House Country Quartet Blue Mug. Its serene design complements Maya’s tranquil spirit.
Oprah Wingfrey: The Wise and Talkative Leader
Meet Oprah Wingfrey, the sage of the flock. Her inquisitive nature and constant clucking make her the go-to gal for all the latest coop news.
Mug of Motivation: Start your day with inspiration using the Bay Island Rooster Coffee Cup. It is as uplifting as Oprah’s daily affirmations.
A Heartfelt Thank You
Naming these chicks was a community effort, and I am grateful for all your fantastic suggestions.
