Question Help me choose a name!!!!

I will soon be getting a new male cockatiel!! It is my first pet bird!!! I will probably be getting him the day after my Confirmation. I have narrowed it down to two names, Peanut(my favorite food) or Anthony(my Confirmation name). i heard birds can say certain words(espescially ones with r sounds like "pretty bird") better than others.If I want him to say his name, which would be better, peanut or anthony,or are they about the same?

i think for a Tiel.. Peanut would be an easier wourd to say.. its only two sounds.. p... nut.. :D...

hows about you wait for your little guy to be in the house with you so you can really decided which name suits his personality best ;)

I called my first bought cockatiel Peanut! What colour is he? Mine's cinnamon (or peanut colored, hence the name :) Peanut can say his name but finds it difficult to pronounce the "n" and the "t."
