Naming your fish

I name mine. But only after I've had them for a while. They have to survive for at least a couple months before I feel comfortable personifying them. Here they are -

Engineer goby - Gomez
Purple Tang - William
Blue tang - Elmore
Foxface Lo - Matthew
Firefish - Merv
Swallowtail Angel (female) - Dolores
Bluestar leopard wrasse (female) - Felicity
Green Mandarin - Mandoo
Lyretail Anthias (male) - Chaz - (female) - Catelyn
Whipfin Fairy Wrasse - Elton
Banggai Cardinal - Gordon
Lightning Maroon Clown - Thor Almighty
Midas Blenny - Ronald
Blue streak cleaner Wrasse - Franklin
Pink spot Watchman - Dr. Armand
Red Head Solon Wrasse (male) - Pork Pie - (female) Missy Pie

+Stan & Fran - Captive bred lined seahorses in my refugium (don't worry - they have low flow, unlike the display).
 
I did when I was younger, but then I stopped, now my daughter names them.

Currently we only have freshwater working on getting that first saltwater tank, so we have:

Red devil: Juice
Betta: Leo
 
Yep :beer: the named animals I have in my tank are...

Lionel the zebra moray eel
Darla the flame angel
Rhett the Talbot's damsel
Velcro the stippled clingfish
Castillo the common sea star
 
Mine are as follows:
Pyramid Butterfly- Melvin
Vlamingi Tang- Prince
Clowns: Juels and Vincent
Swallowtail Angel (female)-Angel
Solorensis Wrasse: Oscar
 
My girlfriend started naming them when we moved in together and it stuck.
Mocha Clownfish - cappuccino, obviously :)
3 blue chromis - huey dewey and louie or my name the spaz brothers.
We haven't named our blenny yet.
