Name That Fish

Holler holler folks. The much anticipated moment has finally arrived. I finally bought my new fish a few weeks ago and its time to name him. A lot of people have asked if they could name the fish, so I want to give everyone an opportunity to give their suggestions. Below are links to more pictures so look them over and post a comment with your name suggestions.

Once everyone has an opportunity to give their name suggestions then I'll either pick one and declare that the winner, or we'll have a run-off election. Also, male or female names are acceptable.

I think you should either name the little guy Wrigley or Sandberg.

It is, after all, almost the season.

I think your new fish's name should be something like-

Budweiser
Coors
Samuel Adams
or Corona

Thats about the extent of my knowledge of American beers

I like the names period face or possibly Koolaid since I don't believe we ever used this name. I also think the name Blood would be good, but if you do that you have to get one with a blue head and name it Crip.

How about Murray? It's Irish for God of the Sea.

Charlie said...

And could also signify Bill Murray, who is fucking cool.

And Scott, Period Face?! Ha. Jesus.

Satan

Or, if you plan to get more you could name them in this order:
Six
Six squared (or six junior)
Six cubed (or six III, which is lame)

One-eyed-willy (after me)

- Jotastic

What about, "I'mnotgonnabegayliketankwas."
I like Murray, whoever suggested that.

you should name him "Crunk" or maybe "Crunky".

I suggest "Forbes"
It means "Head-strong".
I believe it's scottish, so when you are having a conversation with your fish and pretending he is talking back to you, he can have a scottish accent. ACH!
Now that's gotta be some fun.

no dude, you should name him lashawndrell, or latifius, or lemongelo

Am I remembering correctly that somewhere along the line you had a fish named "Cornbread"? If this is so and I am not suffering some form of temporary disillusionment from reading way too many blogs and getting them all confused, then my other suggestion is that this is a girl fish and you should call her "Angelcake". If none of this is making any sense to you then you should totally forget I spoke.

I like the names:
* Headwound Harry
* The Oncologist
* Mikhail Gorbachev

Well, the first thing that came to my mind was naming her Jillian.
But after that...
Naming it Six in some other language would be an obvious choice (Seises in spanish is probably the coolest-sounding one.)
Or perhaps Lefty, because wasn't it always your left nut that you tended to expose at parties?

After looking at the picture and readng the other names I must say that i enjoy Murrery, but I think he has a sort of dumbfounded look on his face which made me think of one of my favorite movies Dumb and Dumber. I think the name Lloyd fits this fish to a T.
