Who names their fish?

I've now got 8 Angels.. 3 very mature adults.. named: Spike, Sparkie and Spook.. Spike is the stud that's generated a bunch of fry, Sparkie is a blue platiunum whose side do indeed sparkle.. and Spook, a DD that looks like a lady wearing a black velvet dress.. well.. I picked up two of Spikes off-spring a few days ago.. a gold and a marble.. hmmm .. names?... Mabel the marble and tess the tease... Another member told me the names sounded like two old spinster sisters!..
Anyone else as goofy about their fish?

When I was younger I used to name all my fish... I got a 'special' guppy from petsmart that would swim in circles on occasion and would try to out swim the currant from the filter so I named him Timmy after a special kid from south park. But he's the most recent with a name... I have a giant pond snail named snaily!

i dont with 47 tanks i wont be able to remember all those name i would get a headache

Darn.. 47 tanks!.. Full time job and full time enjoyment!.. WTG!..

Have quite a few with names "the special fish" Missy, Baby, Lil Man, Miss Kitty, Mo & Lady, Betty & Barny, Jazz & Jax, Super Hero (guppy) to name a few

keep em comming.. each post tells me I'm not as wacked out as my wife thinks!....

I have 44 running tanks right now . Way to many fishes to name them all . BUT , there are a couple who have been named ! Some just way too much personality to not be named !

We named our fish!

We have Cthulu the albino cory, HP the sunbusrt platy (homage to HP Lovecraft), Mickey Mouse the mickey mouse platy, Rapier the swordtail, Hobbes the guppy, Vader the guppy, Tetris the tetra, Gary the snail, and Jack Skellington the betta.

Still need to name the pleco we got.

Beauty for my multi betta male, hawk for my ohm, goofy- white betta, colonial mustard- mg betta, lucky- monster betta, pepper- discus, tigger- discus. Well that's a little my fish. I call my corys the oofy children, my dojo loach is trouble

depending on how I feel , my five German Short Hair Pointers are either the terrorists or the Banshees ! LOL

To many freshwater tank fish to name but we do name our pond goldfish and Koi.

way to many fish to man them.

i like the idea of naming fish but i never keep to it. my husband names them more than i do

moving this to general fish discussion :)

Lil'Bit, Sooner, Angel, Ghost and the new guy Charlie Sheen (he's a little crazy) all the rest are just "that one".
