My sis named 2 of my fish.
My 2 juvenile platies are named the following: bubba (aka bubba sparx) and manifest destiny (coz this platy is such a survivor when the adults wanted to eat him when he was a fry).
Of course I name my fish:
long narrow black fish who will be longest
big getting bigger green fish with long trailers
spotted fish who will get the biggest
happy greenies who stay on bottom
cruising black/red sharkie
roly poly funny baby fishies
elegant small long finned couple
the rawhide bunch (rollin' rollin' rollin', keep them fishies rollin')
J/K they have names but it's quite personal :Angel:
I name all my fish. My Danios are, Zip, Zap, Zig, Zag, and Zoey. My Convicts are Quiver and Connie and my Firemouth are Sunset and Sunrise. My Upside-Downers are Cookoo, Pizzazy, and Coconut. My Cories are Huggles, Snuggles, Smudgey, Smoshi, Butter Scotch, Freckles, Creamsicle, Popsicle, Peppercorn, and Pebbles. My Three-Spot is Beer and my CAE is Icicle.
I stopped naming mine ... not that I have a lot of mortality, but it's easier for me to lose a fish known only by its species name, than one I chose for it. Personalization makes loss worse. And I'm a wuss.
I think i posted this in another thread a little while ago, but here it goes:
Ocarina: chubunkin goldfish
Tooth Fairy: celestial goldfish
Sybr: calico fantail goldfish
Froggy, Toady, Newt: weather loaches
Pippin, Frodo: bronze corys
Bilbo: peppered cory
Took: emerald green cory
Nubber: albino cory
Simon: betta
Chasey Lane: pleco
Jenna Jameson: otto
The Boos: school of glass cats
School of Rock: school of glass fish
Handsome Boy Modeling School: zebra danios
The Bobs: flame tetras
The Goldens: golden barbs
Empar II: a black molly
Nelson: featherfin syno
I also used to have Huey, Dewey III, and Louie II that were all feeder goldfish, who have since gone to a very happy pond existence with a friend.
It always has been for me...everyone else has a name...and they are still alive...must just be the fishies that have issues...
The turtles are named after medieval armor (Half-plate, Full-plate, Ring, and Banded), the dogs (Issac and Xander) and cats (Confucious, Cambian, Constantine {who will only answer to the name "Pinky" thanks to my husband}, and Connor, are named after famous people. Bearded dragon is Jupiter, and the parakeet is pseudo-mob name "Bird-face"........pretty eccentric...
You have several horses, right? What are their names? I'd really like to get a pair of Belgian geldings when we build our new house..named after my two favorite LotR Rohim characters... Theoden and Eomer.
