Names for the Chicken

My grandmother bought me a chicken puppet off of my Amazon list for Christmas.  I first saw it at Barnes and Noble and knew I wanted it because it was a chicken, soft, and because I always love things that can be used at school.

Last week I greeted all of the students as they came in each morning with the chicken on my arm.  The number one question was "What is the chicken's name?"  followed by "Why do you have a chicken?"  

This week we decided to have a naming contest.  I will look through the entries on Friday and pick the one that I like best, none of that drawing a name stuff for this chicken, she deserves the best. As of Monday, I already have around 60 choices.

Amelia was thrilled about this.  She has submitted "Honey" for a name.  Even if I loved Honey, I'm afraid I can't pick it.  How would that look?  The principal picking her own daughter's name.  Poor Milly.
