I do, I do!!! I had a yellow tang name Puhn, a hippo named Lola. A purple tang named Nico, and scopas tang named Seppia. (These are not all at once!) I currently have 2 clown fish named Earl and Joy. We had an orange linkia star fish named Randy with them, but he climbed out of the water line and didnt fair so well. Fitting name. Anyway, the list goes on, and on, and on. Oh, wait one more! Mr. Legs, the brown brittle star fish.

Some of the fish I've got / had...
GSM named Homeboy
BIG emerald mithrax named Kong
Sally Lightfoot named Sally (yeah, I slacked on that one)
Fridmani Pseudochromis named Freud (cuz he's friggin crazy)
Yellow Tang named Tiki
Blenny named Benny (again, not too original)
Purple Lobster named Waldo (cuz you could never find him
)
I had an awesome grouper named Oscar (cuz he was a grouch.. duh)
I have more or less stopped naming them, though, for no apparent reason.

GRabbit....Love the "Waldo" and explanation.
Have 3 kids and they have named everything in the tank, but I have something in mind for a Waldo.
Our cucumber is "Pickle". Kids picked out "turd" b/c that's what he looked like, but I overruled.
My favorites...2 clowns: the first was obviously Nemo, and the second "Radio".

LMAO! If something doesn't respond to a name then what's the point of naming it? I mean it's cute when the kids do it but silly when adults name their fish...imo

The names also help me and my wife comunicate about the tank, I know all the common names of my animals but my wife can't remember them(CBS yellow tail damsel false perc firefish) However she can remember their names, so when she calls me at work and says that Sam(CBS) is attacking a hermit, Or Bonnie(female false perc) is acting weird, we both know what we are talking about.
