Edit: Vote on the poll for a name!
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)

I provided svg and png both with and without gradient (˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧
What about Bink?
It’s both cute and an anagram of KBin.
Binky 😅
@TheOlympian My vote goes for Pink as well
We got a winner
Plus now we’ll be immune to magical harm!
The Xanth book series has Bink as the first main character.
I was gonna say keeb but this is way better
I like Ben because it’s not so literal but an obvious wink to kbin. maybe Ben K.
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!
I hope it’s not too late to suggest names, but howbout knibbler
unfortunately youre a little late, there have been 2 polls since this post and a final name has been chosen. i really do love the name knibbler though, its clever and cute
Birb or kbirb
Idk if Lemmy.World users get a say here, but I say make it a she!
I vote Binelope :)
Regardless, nice work.
I wonder if cockatoos eat mouse? I sure hope they do. Oh wow they do, watch out Lemmy’s Mouse, we are coming.
Binelope is great!
Kebin :)
I hope Kebin wins out too.
go vote on the new poll! https://strawpoll.com/BDyNEb9MWZR
Yeah it’s right there. K.bin. With Kevin sounding the best and combine them, Kebin (Keh Bin).
Oh I love Kebin rhymes with Kevin and is Kbin with an extra ‘e’
VPN user voting is not allowed, but my vote is for Kibby. Feel free to add that to the total if you want.
Kebin Durant
I saw someone in the voting thread say “Early Bird” and I really like that.
that could be cute ★
Earl, The Bird?
Earl?
I went to high school with a guy named Early so it’s not inconceivable.
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.
Kbirb is the superior choice.
Kippy the Cockatoo!
Kbirb “kay-berb”
My grandma had a cockatoo that bit the shit out of just me all the time. It’s name was Oggy
Oggy would be perfect.
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.
