Shahbir's: Name my Characters Contest

Hello to those who don't know me my name is Shahbir Hameed and I am holding, some what, a competition for my characters in my Final Major Project animation 'Bird Food Blues...'
The reason why is because I thought it would be fun to see how many people will come up with different names for my three characters. The winning names will be in the credits for the characters, and the winner might get a prize, like a box of sweets. The characters in my animation are, the Worm, Blue Bird and Red Bird
The way this is going to works is that you must write your name/user name, then write the name you want to give to one of my characters for example: (with real name) Shahbir (or User name, Shubtastic), (chosen character) Worm, (name you chose for your chosen character) Wormy.
You can write up to five names for your chosen character, you can choose to do all of them if you like. You can think of any names you want just don't write anything too rude, this is rated U after all XD, but seriously no rude names. However pun names are aloud like Stevie Wormer (Stevie Wonder).
If you have any question write them in the comments on this post or on the comments section on my blog. The competition will end on the 21st of May so act quick. If two people or more chose the same name then I will randomly pick the winner.
Have fun.

Edit:
After reading Alan's comment, he had a good idea. That only the worm should have a blues singer parody name because he is the only one singing, while the two birds shouldn't because they are not. This is optional but please take this to thought when naming my characters.
