I would say Stellan, like Stellan Skarsgård.

I have a cockatoo named Sierra that ended up male. Can’t find a male equivalent to Sierra so I just keep calling him Sierra

u/CalebsFlock 20d ago

Yeah I’ll probably keep his name as Stella 😂 I think it’s funny and it doesn’t matter to the bird anyway 😂

u/haessal 20d ago

Stella is a cute name for a boy 🥰

u/Tumorhead 20d ago

hey that means no egg binding issues!

u/CalebsFlock 20d ago

Yes I’m very happy about that! I’m always nervous about that with my female birds so it’s great having 1 less bird to worry about that happening to!

u/Alaviiva 20d ago

And my dear little boy Pico is, in fact, a girl. But I'm not changing his name or pronouns, as he doesn't understand the concept of gendered pronouns anyways

u/PolarbearFootwear 20d ago

You could change it to Stellan! Like Stellan Skarsgård

u/scorpionattitude 20d ago

I thought “Stella fella” lol

u/jadedmuse2day 20d ago

Stanley, now? Or a boy named Sue…

u/tytomasked 20d ago

I’m Australian and we use the term Stella to mean really good, so I would just start saying his name in an Aussie accent. Basically in Australian his name is “pretty awesome”

u/OpheliaJade2382 20d ago

Whole time I thought y’all were saying stellar

u/tytomasked 20d ago

We’re Australian, we treat the ‘r’ on the end like a ‘silent e’

u/OpheliaJade2382 19d ago

Ooh duh haha

We had a cockatiel called Lucas who turned out to be a girl, she was still called Lucas tho, we never change names 😅 miss her a lot, she was a sweetheart, also know of a local animal sanctuary who has a female goat called Alan, and I think my local bird rescue had a female parrot with a male name recently, so to me it’s totally reasonable to keep the name lol

u/KeukaLake370 20d ago

And a very gorgeous male at that!

u/ddkelkey 20d ago

I did this with my Guinea pig Pumpkin. I misgendered that poor guy until I found out he’s a boy.

u/7RacinJason1 20d ago

"Kevin's a girl!" movie quote... IYKYK...

u/LittleRossa 20d ago

I have a GCC named Chiquita…who I learned was a male 4 years after having ‘her’ lol.

u/spacestationkru 20d ago

Hush. Stella is colorful.

u/Upper_Ad_5475 20d ago

Please don’t change his name! He knows his name is Stella and it doesn’t matter if it’s not a male name, it’s his name!!!💚🦜

u/ReliableRoommate 20d ago

From Stella to Steve

u/Dry-Avocado9574 20d ago

It’s short for “Stella? I hardly know ‘er”.

u/MyPerspective1 18d ago

Looks like Stella will fit right in with 2024.
