Do You Give Names To Your Fish? Like...

I have four fish right now, and there are two pairs

Pair of Clowns- ***** and Giggles(it is a saying used to say to do something for fun)
Pair of Pylei- still need a name
 
My wife and niece name all inhabitants, fish, crabs, shrimp and even larger snails and hermit crabs that are easily distinguished from the rest. I am told that it is there job to name and enjoy, it is my job to do the little things like care for and maintain the tank.
 
My two clowns are Named Frick and Frak.. i have 3 damsels who are Huey, duey and luey.. my goby is Diamond Dallas, my Blenny RIP was Lenny the Blenny.
 
I name my fishes :)

Purple tang: Pookie - belies her sweet gentle personality
Bristletooth tang: LaQuanda - named after a youtube video
Borbonias anthias: Herbie- looks like a yellow punch buggy
Masuda hogfish: Castro - cigar shaped
Clowns have no names
black combtooth blenny- Monster truck.. he can back that thing up
 
We name every fish. Considering we have 7 tanks, too many names to list here. My husband has a friend who names all of his fish the price he paid for them. lol. not sure what he does if he has 2 the same price. EX. his dwarf angel is named $49.95, damsel is $6.99.

Any damsel I had would be called ''Predator Food". Sorry, I have no idea why I'm following this thread.
 
I used to name everything, but a couple of crashes later only thing named are the survivors. I have 13 fish and only the following are named...

Clown- Krusty The Clown
Black and white clown- Pepper
Melanerus Wrasse- Sebastian (Green & Orange like The "U")
Rock Blenny- Carlos (after my roommate cuz his belly is huge)
Pacific Blue Tail Lobster- Blue (after the old dude from Old School)
 
I saw one of these threads where the guy named his fish after characters from Futurama, and thought that was kinda cool.
I thought about something similar, but I too had bad juju from naming fish, and I can't tell my anthias apart from each other.
The only fish that got named were bullies, and UA won't allow me to post those names...
 
My black clownfish pair: Blackjack and Shamu (Ironically, Shamu is the male)
Black female seahorse: Shanaynay
Seahorse pair: Mr Giggles and CrayCray (Craycray is my female)
My two yellow tangs: Big tang, little tang

All of the rest of my fish are just called by their common names. If I have more than one of a fish, I name them to identify them. The only pair of fish I have that aren't named are a pair of orange clownfish.
