OK, we got it now. Thank you everyone for your suggestions. They helped to trigger other ideas, and some of them I will be saving for later.

The black heifer will be poison ivy (the cat woman suggestion helped me think of it) and my husband, who NEVER names anything, named the bull calf, so we have to go with his name.

We were talking about it over supper and I said something to the effect of its just gonna be another boring, ordinary-looking animal. He said Boa? I said what? He said you just named it Boa. I did?
Sure, he says.. Boring Ordinary-looking Animal. BOA.

We have always told our kids that the black cows are the yummiest ones. When we got our first 2 calves the holstein was about 10 days old and the little black one was about 3 days old. They came off the truck and my oldest said, "Look Mom, we have Big and Tasty! Just like my favorite burger from McDonalds!". That sealed the deal! Tasty died, and Big has been called "Biggie" for a while. The new calf is called "Tupac". We have the rappin'est cattle in the 'hood!
