It took them forever to figure out if it was a girl and even longer to give the new baby penguin at the Shedd Aquarium a name.

The Shedd’s named their new little girl “Ruggles” after the Islands in the Southern Atlantic Ocean where these types of penguins are usually found.

Ruggles last born last June but officials had to do genetic testing to figure out if she was a boy or girl.
