I only have one named, Willy, my jumper guy. I can't seem to get the other guys straight. I know some, but you can't force a name on a fish, it has to fit. I guess I'm hoping for a Romeo and Juliette. That said, I'm just curious if any of you guys have named your fish, and better yet, post a pic with your named fish. Named.

I have two territorial spawning pairs in my tank. I currently call them *bleep*, big-*bleep*-*bleep*, *bleep*-er, and *bleep*-ing*bleep*-er
When things are more peaceful I go back to calling them whatever Kenny/Forrest names their strain. Except for the reflection cross, I just call "big guy" :D

I have a big fat head high body, monster he is.
My daughter calls him "Stanley", she took the sticker that was on the rack I had (made by Stanley), put the sticker on the 20g breeding tank that housed our huge altum high body and called him "Standley", now everyone calls him that....lol

Awesome names - I love pancake. I only have one named, that's Willy, my hero. There is a very dominant female who I've called Little Red, but I am thinking of naming her Cher. Don't ask... And there is another cutie who may be a Cleopatra, not sure. She has a stiff upper lip so to speak. Like that attitude. Has to be Cleo to stick. The rest of the bunch are just a handful of rogues. Wild blue discus. I can't get them straight.
