Help Name Our Alpaca - Contest Ends Soon!

This cute little alpaca boy needs a name! 

We'd like help in naming our newest addition to our alpaca ranch. Here are some characteristics about this little boy who was born a couple of weeks ago. He is dark brown with soft, silky fiber that we'll eventually shear and sell as yarn on our website. He's really fast running around the pasture, likes to pronk, is very curious, is very proud in his stance like his father (Snowmass Conquistador). He is very independent but still likes to stay by his mom (Daphne) in the evenings. There's more pictures on our ranch website photo gallery  So here's the deal, suggest a name in the comments section of this blog along with reason.
The winner will get a $25 gift card from Alpaca Direct. 

So..put on your creative hat, think about his characteristics and have fun suggesting a great name for this little boy alpaca!

I’m a veterinary student, and a bunch of us have decided that the best name for an alpaca is “Hummer” because of the noise that they make.

I have two suggestions: Machu or Picchu
He certainly is a cute little bugger. :-)

Oribe

Jack.
I love the name Jack-it reminds me of spunky energetic boys who get into a little trouble now and then but in the end are sweet as pie, which is how this little guy seems from your description.

How about Cieran?(keer-awn) It means little black one in Irish.

When you name horses, you generally try to reference at least one of their parents in the name. Since his dad had “Conquistador” as part of his name, I would name the new baby after a a famous Conquistador- how about “Cortes?”
