I'm not big on naming fish but I do have a fish with a name. It's a Hawaiian Hogfish that I got from a friend and was already named Hoggie because she eats like a hog!
I inherited an ocellaris that the previous owner named Omen just to be a smart aleck. I named my brittle star "The Amazing Spazzo!" because it goes spastic the second any food hits the water. It hitch hiked on my LR as a little tike and now is huge. I had some pajama cardinals the grand daughter named "the polka dot girls". The best was a convict tang that I named "Capone". I sold it to a fellow reefer with a bigger tank who used to have a convict, and guess what they had named their tang?
I've got two clowns one is Bebo other is shark bait Bebo is how my nephew says nemo and I call my nephew shark bait.
Then my gf named the rest goby pistol. Pair is boby and trigger
