I just want to soon that my clown, lil Wayne is straight [moderator edit] up and solja down.. His buddy jadevion picked the crap out of him when deciding dominance, and poor lil Wayne has no left fin or dorsal fin.. Jadevion was a bully :(

I'm down with that. Careful of the language, young fish reading this. I had a tomato clown that use to beat me up anytime I was stupid enough to invade his hood. Should have called him Dr. No. Man those suckers can bite.

I assume you are talking about Christian Louboutins (very expensive red-soled heels)... Cute and appropo. :D

I had a 9" common pleco named Dr. Zoidberg. Whenever he was interested in/upset by something, his sailfin flared up. It was all I could do not to lol when my kid, completely unaware of how wrong it sounded, said it was because it was aroused. o_O

Yesss, exactly! It has a red bottom! :-D LOL!
 
Oranda goldfish: named several times, nothing stuck, Bobby, Bubba, Bibble, Bubbles, Fifi, Goldy and probably more
Pearl gourami: Benny
My cores have a name I call them as a group, I call them the Snufflers.
 
My only creative names currently:
Red betta with 2 ADF: Bacon, Lettuce, and Tomato.
Alpha male Black Phantom tetra: Richard (well actually its a nickname for Richard)
I started calling my espei rasboras Vick and McCoy, cuz they not that big but still fast :) When I get the next 3 they will be called Jackson, Maclin, and Celek until I get bored and just start calling them all Espei.

When I had my salt tank I had Krzyzewski the Blue Devil Damsel.
My regular Oscillaris was of course Nemo and the black and white Oscillaris was Ninja Nemo.
 
I have a Powder Blue Tang names Sir Ichs-a-lot for obvious reasons.
A Chevron Tang named Chevy Chase.
A Midas Blenny named Muppet.
An Ocellaris Clown named Nemo-original, I know.
Majestic Angel named Brian-I have no idea why.

I have kids, so names are a must round here =-)
 
Its kind of an accepted myth in the goldfish world that its bad luck to name goldies. So far, its proven true so I leave the names to my 3yr old.... fat fish, little pig, big pig, piglet, black fish, orange fish, little girl, fair fish, etcetcetc. :)

I nearly snorted coffee out my nose. Thanks for the laugh!

I haven't named my fish (2 platy females), but my friend did. The one that tries to jump and flails around when moved in a net or in a small bowl is Ariel, and the one that hides in my decorative castle is Beth (Little Women reference, for the curious).
