I was just wondering what cretive names everyone named their fish. I'll start with a few of mine because there is no way I could name all of them, I can't even tell the tetras apart.
Dojo loaches: G.I. Dojo and Mojo
Horseface loaches: Shadowfax and Seabiscuit
Gold Barbs (I have 4): Big Mama, Daddy, Yellow Jacket and Bumblebee
Albino Cories (I have 4 with only 1 named): One Eye (can you guess why?!)
Kubotia loaches: Itchy and Scratchy because they were the fish I bought with a severe case of itch that was nice enough to contaminate my entire tank!
Guppies: Stud, Blue, and Pretty tail (real original, I know)
Clown Pleco: Rhino because he rams all the fish that come near him

OK: I usually just name the goldies...the guppies have become to numerous to name...
My one big goldie (his buddies have passed) is Calli.
The two goldies at school: The white one is Romeo, and the golden one is Julliet...the kids named them...waiting for someone to pop up with a name for the snail in the tank...

I have never named any of my fish. However, other people have, and when they do, I just keep the names then.

Some names of some of my fish;
Silver Arowana; Gertrude
Red Tail Cat; Petie
Other Red Tail Cat; Pedro
Clown Knife; Mac (yes from the song, lol)
Lionfish; Leo
Other Lionfish; Tigger
Pond Koi; Goldie, spot, midnight, and a few more I can't remember, lol
Gauchua Snake Head; Ugg, short for ugly.
and a few more I can't remember

As stupid as it sounds, I do name my fish--well, the ones that I can tell apart.
