What are Bastion's birds' names?
I know that Bastion's main avian companion, who appears to be some variant of a goldfinch, is named Ganymede. But what about the other birds? Each of Bastion's Epic and Legendary skins (aside from the Overgrown skin) show a different species of bird.
Defense Matrix has a Blue Jay.
Omnic Crisis has a Cardinal.
Antique and Woodbot have two different colors of a Woodpecker.
Gearbot has a Pigeon.
Steambot has a Dove.
Normally, I wouldn't expect such a minor character to have different names for each of the suits they wear, but Blizzard has been known to be quite a stickler for the smaller details.
Best Answer
It can be assumed regardless of the bird's species, the name is still Ganymede. I have tested out the "Ganymede" highlight intro with each of the different skins, and in each result, the text produced after scanning the bird is the same. Although it may be producing the result "Bird" in whatever the Omnic text might be, it seems to be identical throughout.
