Well, IMO it's important to not choose any of the more common male eclectus names as they can tend to be boring and too predictable (e.g. emerald, granny smith, etc).
Majority of my birds have been named after some of mt favourite TV and movie programs. I've pretty much utilised the names from all the following programming: LOTR, Buffy, Angel, Babylon 5 and Star Trek.
I'll be hitting Star Wars for names next.
(umm, I think I let out that I'm a bit of a dork).

Hi Kim and Steve,
I am not 100% sure of the current pricing structure but I believe that they can range from anywhere between $30 - $60 depending on quantities, size, etc. Best thing is to call them and enquire, providing the numbers you want sexed, their species, etc.
Rgds
Tim
