#1 won by a landslide! Thanks for all the voting and feedback everyone! Now, what is his name? 🤔

Edit: Vote on the poll for a name!

See the results here

Here is a mock of an AskKbin icon to show examples of how the kbird can be used as a sort of mascot if you'd like and a comparison between the current icon and the kbird icon

Now I'm thinking he (she?) needs a name. Some ideas I saw were: Kevin, Kebin, Binny, Ben, Binjamin.

Any more ideas? We can do a poll for this as well. I'm partial to Kevin or Binny (short for Binjamin)

Plus now we'll be immune to magical harm!

The Xanth book series has Bink as the first main character.

Yeah it's right there. K.bin. With Kevin sounding the best and combine them, Kebin (Keh Bin).

My grandma had a cockatoo that bit the shit out of just me all the time. It’s name was Oggy

They can definitely be pretty mean. I knew a guy who had one and she would bite every person who came over who wasn't a man. She tried to bite me, but I was wearing my winter coat. She bit women and any child that came around, but she was very fond of men with beards for some reason... Birds are weird sometimes.

I wonder if cockatoos eat mouse? I sure hope they do. Oh wow they do, watch out Lemmy's Mouse, we are coming.

Hear me out... Replace all upvote divs' backgrounds with this version of Binny, make one where's angry and replace all downvote divs' backgrounds with that one.

I like Ben because it's not so literal but an obvious wink to kbin. maybe Ben K.

Kevin the Kbird, kwite kool, kwite Kbin!

Yeah that's what I voted, the Kbird looks like a Kevin to me and at least I can spell it unlike a certain alien.......

BTW, in many accents or languages "Kbin" and "Kevin" are pronounced the same (taking the K as /keh/ and the I as /ee/) so is a neat pun.

I saw someone in the voting thread say "Early Bird" and I really like that.

I went to high school with a guy named Early so it's not inconceivable.

Aww, I like how you added the hearts. So cute! I think I like Binny for a name but Kevin is also nice too.

2

Aww, they've got such a face that they're easy to make emote a bunch of different ways, gosh I love it. You're good Minnieo!

VPN user voting is not allowed, but my vote is for Kibby. Feel free to add that to the total if you want.

I'm rooting for Kevin!

(and, as always, amazing work!)
