When these naming polls come out, it's not uncommon for the keepers to reach out to the broader keeper community and ask us to vote for a favored name, perhaps one that they suggested or that has some special meaning to them. I always try to oblige, even if it's not my favorite choice.
In this case, some folks at Syracuse's Rosamond Gifford Zoo have suggested "Ajay" for the newborn baby elephant. If you have feelings one way or another, feel free to check out the poll.
