Even as a casual Titans fan, I notice the freakishly large number of members named after birds. There's Robin, Hawk, Dove, Golden Eagle...

What names should the other Titans have taken to go along with this theme?

(Note: Wonder Chick doesn't count...)

How about: Beast Boy = Green Cuckoo
Starfire = Bird of Paradise
Troia = Ebony Roc (I would have suggested Phoenix, but someone else is already using that.)
BTW - you forgot Raven

You see! Who can keep track of all those bird-themed characters?

Aqualad = Seagull
Speedy = Eagle-Eye
Gnarkk = Archaeopteryx
Duela = The Penguin's Daughter

Bumblebee = Woodpecker (a new spin on her stinging ability)

Wouldn't Trioa make more sense as Bird of Paradise? (Island)

And then Starfire would become Firebird

and some others...

Lilith = Albatross (a bad Omen in seafaring legends)
Kon = Gamecock (a fighting rooster)
