Waddle be his name?
We are so excited for the arrival of our Little Blue Penguins — the newest and cutest residents at birchaquarium at Scripps. But there’s one thing missing … a name! This is where YOU come in — we need your help naming one of our penguins!
This is the first time Birch Aquarium is naming any of its animals! We hope this naming opportunity instills a deeper connection with you to these charismatic creatures and inspires you to learn how to aid in conservation efforts to protect our ocean planet.
So … how do you suggest a name?!

This pint-sized penguin needs a name as unique as its species. We encourage you to think of names that are relevant to local ties — like San Diego, UCSanDiego or scripps_ocean, unique aspects of penguins, the environment they live in, or even conservation efforts surrounding their habitats!
