My proposal : a small, nice, gentle, little bird called ... Ada !!! (in French). 

http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ada_(oiseau) 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue-billed_black_tyrant#mediaviewer/File:Knipolegus_cyanirostris_-Reserva_Guainumbi,_Sao_Luis_do_Paraitinga,_Sao_Paulo,_Brasil-8.jpg

It is light, swift, nice, harmless, precise, poetic and green for it's a real american bird.
And the image of a bird for a programming langage is  fashionable : Apple has taken a bird for the logo of it's new langage : Swift.

Now I let someone gifted in drawing, create a logo and submit it for the contest 

Kind regards, 

Vincent

It's also called a Tyrant in English. Probably fits nicely with some peoples'
impression of Ada.
