People from all over the world helped pick names for Liberty & Justice's eaglets

We don't know what Liberty and Justice think, but online viewers have chosen "Glory" and "Honor" for the names of their two eaglets. The names are similar to three siblings who were born last year, Hope, Faith, and Spirit, and two years ago, Freedom.

The Alcoa Eaglecam web site says people voted more than 124,000 times during the ten-day poll. Honor and Glory received one-third of the votes. Last year, fans voted about 70,000 times. Since many people think the eaglet that hatched first is a female, it will be called Glory, and the younger one will be called Honor.

The next significant development may be the eaglets' first attempt at flight, known as "fledging."
