Fish names

[Boxcar Muzzdogg]

The poll on whether or not you name your fish got me thinkin about my own fish. I've never named any of them because I just can't think of a proper name that I want to call each fish for the rest of their lives. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.

I have:

1) Electric blue johannii

1) female auratus

1) crayfish

1) albino cory

1) julii cory

4) zebra danios

1) long finned zebra danio

Just for info sake, they are not all in the same tank. If anyone has any suggestions, feel free to throw some out. While we're at it, I also have two leopard geckos and a banana king snake that are nameless.

I name mine after characters in movies I like, maybe you could try that?

I give mine ancient mythical names. Mars, Saturn, Hades, Ops, Plutarch, Ovid, etc.

I've thought about naming my johannii, 'aristotle,' and my auratus, 'epictetus,' for specific reasons, but the auratus is female and I don't think it would be right to name it after male, what do you think?

I like to name mine proper peoples names... except for my 7 neon tetras, who are named after the 7 deadly sins... am not religeous freak or anything, and I hope it doesn't offend anyone. My rosy tetras are Dave, Clare, Maggie (named by me) Rosencrantz and Gildernstein (named by husband).
Or you could continue the Aristotle theme with Plato etc.
