The names include Ozzy, Bostin, Brummie, and Boulton.

The final shortlisting was carried out by West Midlands mayor Andy Street and Network Rail chair Lord Peter Hendy.

The bull attracted thousands of visitors during the Games and received a public outcry to keep it in the city, which led to its permanent home at Birmingham New Street station.

The petition received over 15,000 signatures.

The bull's creators, Artem, will add finishing touches before its move from London to the station concourse.

The bull will be unveiled ahead of the Games' first anniversary.
