I still think the best name I heard was Deb's name for her Naso tang - IIRC it was Nas hole. I'm not nearly that original
Naso tang - tank - about 12" long
Yellow tang - SOB - no explaination needed
Goldflake angel - MR. Attitude
Conspic angel - Picky
Moorish Idol - Elvis

None of my other fish really have names.

My wife (mostly) named our critters.

Clowns - Brooke and Antoine
Firefish - Lenny
Emerald crab - Oscar
Sexy shrimp - Waldo ('cause he was hard to find - so small)
YWG - Muddy (mudskipper) - until we think of something better

Regal tang: Pootie Tang
Scopas tang: Tootie Tang (the species basically looks like what a fart probably looks like....)
Yellow tang: Zootie Tang (Zooty zoot zoot? ...anyone?)
Clowns: Duck and Weave
Bicolor Blenny: Benny
YWG: Cliff (Norm, his pistol buddy, has been MIA for months now)
Mandarins: Skippy and Trixy (Skippy has also been MIA )
Peacock mantis: Manticore

I've held off at naming my cleaner shrimps, as it's usually just an expletive when they're bothering all the corals while I'm trying to feed them.
