I like Nido as a name (if it's not already taken!).
As a thought - perhaps Susan (sorry Susan! more work!) should check the
list of names their working from in Amboseli. We used to only have options
listed that we had already made sure wouldn't produce conflicting snames.
This might be a long-ish task, but it's going to be problematic if it keeps
occurring.
