WANTED: Interesting Fish & Critter Names
 I was wondering...
What are some of the interesting fish/critter names that you all have.
Here are a few of my present and past critters' names:
Dumb and Dumber the damsels
Neptune the emerald crab
Big Daddy the hermit crab
Bloody the peppermint shrimp
Crabby the arrowcrab
Sexy the six- lined wrasse
Spot the lawnmower blenny

well, Bubbles and Squeaky are the names of our Sexy Shrimp. We typically don't have names for our fish, but my wife insisted that they have names

The reason I ask...
I have a new lawnmower blenny and peppermint shrimp that aren't named yet. They just gotta have a name or they aren't part of the happy family.
Thanks everyone for the ideas. Those are some really cool names.
It's interesting to see what you all have named them.

I've always wanted to name a pet "peeve". That way I could have a pet peeve.

GSM Clownfish ... Coral
2 True Percs ... Witchipoo and Meemo

3 Yellow Tangs .... Bubbles, Flirt and The Warden/Sarge
Red Scooter Blennie ... Scootch (R.I.P. as of 2 days ago)
2 Yellow Watchman Gobies ... Stupid and Silly (Stupid got his name 'cuz when we first got him he constantly jumped into the overflow box)

Wow! There are really some interesting names out there. I have such boring names for my fish and critters.
Dang... I'm gonna follow by example now. Or maybe, I'll just post some pics and get some names from you all.
I can't wait to see more from everyone.
