Friends of Big Bear Valley, which maintains the live eagle nest camera, held a contest to determine the name of the eaglet.
Thousands of name ideas were submitted. The third-grade class at Big Bear Lake Elementary voted on the winning name. Coming in second was Lil' Dipper and third was Hunter. Friends of Big Bear Valley offered various prizes for those who submitted the most popular names.
The gender of the new eaglet will not be known for some time, the group says.
