Fish Naming Thread

[PlasticGalaxy]

So, within the next few weeks to coming months, I will be getting a bristlenose pleco from a friend of mine! Unfortunately, after naming my sailfin plec "Pocoyo", my common plec "Baby", my red tail shark "Iago", fan shrimp "Kabal" and my upside down catfish "Dr. Strange" and "Mr. Backwards", I've run out of good fish names.

Post your fish's names in this thread and help each other brainstorm cool names for their aquarium buddies! I've read somewhere that at least two people on this thread have an albino bristlenose called "Alabaster", which I think is a great coincidence!

Great names lol..
I have no fish to name yet.

I'm not sure whether to go for 'out there' names like Nebula, Pulsar or keep it simple and have things like
Brian, Trevor, Barry, Ian. Basically just terrible male names lol
Apologies to anyone with these names

From past and present...
Corys: Capone, Dillinger, Carmine, Bonnie and Clyde
Angels: Gwen and Lance, Copernicus, Galileo and Michelangelo, Halo and Titan
Neons/Cardinals (not all named) Rogue and Conan, Scarlet and Rhett

I think I'm going for the mythology names next...

I would have gone for Pretty Boy Floyd in the corys, but that's my parrot's name. What is wrong with me???

Well... We've got guinea pigs called Danny and DeVito! Outlandish names are just so much cooler.

What Brian or Ian lmao

Nebula and Pulsar are pretty sweet.

All of those are really nice! The nicest names I've had for pets were Venus and Jupiter, my childhood hamsters.

For a bristlenose - how about beards? Claus, Connery, Karl, Darwin, Leonardo, Salvador, Hans, Lincoln (or Abraham), Kelvin, Shakespeare?
