I thought I would share this since I found a couple of the names funny

Black blenny - Benny
Six line wrasse- Lucy
Oscellaris - nemo (duh)
Firefish - Shawn the fireman
Serpent star - Katrina the creepy starfish ( after mommy trust me she feels honored)

This is what my 3 & 4 y/o daughters named our fish lol

You need to have kids to name your fish? :)

My yellow tail coris is named Peter (PITA) and my PT is Freckles, but I've always named my FW fish. I haven't named my other SW fish.

I tell my four year old their common names but sometimes they end up being known by their colors (i.e. the white one...)

It was very cool though to go to AV and have him point to the tanks and say wow thats a big yellow tang!

My son has named a few of mine. The clowns and hippo are exactly what you would think. But my purple Firefish is Dr Flame, and blue spot watchman is Mr Grumpy. And I have a red leg hermit named Bill.

My daughter named all of our fish.
Pre hurricane losses, we had Nemo and Marlin, a royal gramma named Dora and a Yellow Wrasse named Banana Fish. Our Trochus snails she called Pickle Snails and our crabs we named Kelly Crab, Kelly is my wife's name. :D

Post hurricane, we have Nemo and Marlin again... funny how that works.

Starry Blenny: Walter Cronkite (I named this one- think bushy eyebrows)
Swallowtail Angel: ?ngel (only pronounced with Spanish accent)
