Names Of Your Fish?

I try to name all of my fish. I haven't named my panda cories yet, because they are too hard to tell apart (I like the idea of just naming the group, though!) and I have a bunch of fry that are un-named so far. Right now here's what I have:
Female platy: Dorothy
Female platy: Mrs. Snout
Female platy: Minnie
Female Platy: Snoopy
Female swordtail: Jezebel
Common plec: Brutus
2 otos: Harold and Marvin
male bettas are Dagon, Ifrit, Ladon, and Aquarius
female bettas are Yuki and Phoenix

I just took Pedro, Julio, Henry, and Randy (male platies) to put in the tank at work. The people at work thought it was just too funny that they all had names. I thought it was weird that the fish there aren't named!! lol
 
i call my male dalmation sailfin molly big daddy as hes the only male out of the six mollies i have and hes by far the biggest

no names really apart from my guppie i call him frank. Bigger fish would be more inclined to give them a name i think. A mate of mine got a goldfish a while back called him superdude
 
guppies-
black guppy- tux (I thought he was a tuxedo guppy, found out I was wrong)
blonde with red tail- tulip (her tail is shape and color of a tulip)
blonde- banana (I think this one's obvious)
corys-
only named one-
peppered cory-pepper (cuz he's a pepper cory)
bettas-
peach, yellow tail with red spots-Kyle- (liked the name)
turquoise, blue tail, peach head- Kenni (my fave character from a tv show)
new addition-
mickey mouse platy, yellow tail, white/yellowish body, orange dorsal fin, Minnie (mickey mouse platy, but she's a female )

that's all for me ;)
 
In my 55 gal my two barbs are Moe and Larry bcause thier alway's shovin' each other around.
one of my three gouramis is Virginia the other two have no names as of yet.
the apollo shark is just called Apollo.
and my catfish is Big Sexy.
 
I have a purple spotted gudgeon that my gf named Turpy.....because it looks like a torpedo lol.

Ned Flounders the albino ancistrus
Poofish the unidentified ancistrus
Fry the L191
Krusty the Clown Plec

My 8 year old daughter has named some of the platies, but their names are less original (Mr and Mrs Speckles and baby Speckles). :rolleyes:
 
Male betta is named Raj. Means prince b/c I'm spoiling him rotten.
Female betta is named Afia. Means given life on a friday. I got her on a friday and gave her a new better life :D

The 4 danios we have I named
Bully- biggest girl who chases all of them
then Bink, Bonk and Boink....
One of the danios that ended up dieing though I always called my "Little finrot danio gal" b/c she had what I thought was finrot on her anal fin. *sigh* I miss her :(
Also the 3 fry that were growing I named them Thing... b/c when the fry first started showing up, that's what I called them at first when I didn't know exactly what they were heh. They all died as well unfortunatly :(
Danios breed like crazy though so whenever I have enough energy again to look.. I'll be able to find some fry and hopefully raise them with success :)

Also have a cory and 3 guppies in the quarantine tank right now with no names.
 
I thought I was the only saddo who named my fish!!OK, here goes...
orange male guppy - Randy (for obvious reasons!)
yellow male guppy - Goldie
black male guppy - Titch (he's only just over 1.5 cm, but seems to be the father of all the babies in the tank)
orange female guppies - Little and Large (one always looks pregnant, hte other doesn't)
black female guppy - Mummy (the only one to produce any babies (as far as I know)
3 white clouds - haven't thought of any yet. Any ideas?
3 cories - oldest one - Jeremy
albino - James
smallest - Richard
3 Pakistani loaches - Stig, 1,2 & 3
8 baby guppies - collectively known as "naughty fish" as they keep swimming into the filter.

I'm sure they all appreciate being given names!!
 
2 false percula clowns - Marlin & Nemo (yes, the girl's name is Marlin)
2 sailfin plecos - Big Ugly & Little Ugly (Big is 1 foot, Little is 6 inches)
2 silver sailfin mollies - Molly, Maggie, Uno (Molly's baby) and the Quads (4 of Maggie's babies)
Bettas - Michael, Spaz, Maximilian
Oscar - Oscar
Rainbow shark - Prince
Orchid Dottyback - Purple Dragon (aka the Purple Piper)
Flame Angel - Flamer
Coral Beauty - Beauty
FW Angelfish - Angel (white) and Diablo (black) with personalities that match their names exactly
Sixline Wrasse - Speedy Gonzalez
Blue Devil Damsel - Old Blue
And a bunch more that never got names...
 
The ones I've named:

Mrs Wembley - marbled angel
Lucifer - Kathy actually named this one, another angel (dont know what the colour is called - think it's a ghost?), named because he/she is an absolute sh*t :rolleyes:
Zorro - another marbled angel
Goldie - gold angel (original huh?)
Jim Royal - the royal plec
Wilf - bristlenose, named after Wilf Lunn/Lund (cant remember his proper name - the "inventor" with the big moustache)
Mrs Wilf aka Wilma - female bristlenose, intended as a girlfriend for Wilf but it would seem he's not interested in girls
WideBoy - chocolate albino common plec, so named because he looked like a Peperami when we bought him
Rusty - rusty plec - another imaginative one
Zippy - hubby's rainbow cichlid (we do have two others in my tank but we've not named them yet)
Shrek - bronze cory (named by daughter)

We also have cories called Haim, Feldman and Nationstreet but the majority are un-named as we cant tell them apart.
