You can try looking up girl names on baby sites. I had named my guineas, Daisy and Grace. I don't know if you are looking for cute names or not. My little sisters Guinea pig is Emma. But I see you said ginger was one of the colors and that doesn't sound like a bad name to me! I would love to hear the other piggies names!

How about Honey & Cinnamon? I am just thinking about getting 2 female guinea pigs myself,for company and for my 4 year old granddaughter when she comes to visit. I haven't had them before so I am going to the library today to pick up books on them as I have much to learn.I don't even know if they will play with toys? I have to wait to hear from my apt. manager if the owners will allow them first[many places don't allow rodents of any kind] and if not, then I am considering a Green [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse] Parrolet,the smallest and quietest true parrot. I hope you enjoy the new additions to your family and that they live many happy,healthy years. :) :clap: :wave:

My Jethro, a black guinea pig I had for years, loved playing fetch with a little cat toy. He also played around with toys in his cage. Very, very funny fellow. In contrast, my girl, Mabel, didn't enjoy doing anything as far as I could see. ^_^

Budgies or Cockatiels are much better when a child is going to be in the environment. No parrot should be handled by anyone under eight or ten years of age, but I wouldn't even want a young teen around a parrotlet. I'd sooner handle a macaw, myself, than one of these nippy little things! For the most part they're very shy and jumpy, one upsetting incident can completely destroy a years-old relationship, they're rarely friendly upon maturity, you have to adopt one torn from the nest early if you want one remotely tame (which, really, is abusive), they don't speak much but rather squeal and chirp, and they don't desire human companionship a great deal. A rescued Budgie or 'Tiel already tamed in adulthood would probably be your best bet if you want your granddaughter to enjoy the bird, too. They're more likely to be friendly years in, less likely to be one-person birds that spaz at passers-by, and more likely to learn tricks and words, especially the Budgie!:D

Blessings,
awashinlove

Hey, we've got a Daisy too! She's blond and white (kinda like a daisy). Her roommate is Maggie. We almost named Maggie Punkie instead because of her funny rosette on her forehead.
