I name my puffers after hurricanes. My very first was a GSP named Hugo who lived for 13 years. My Hawaiian White spotted (who unfortunately passed a couple of weeks ago) was named Ike. My new Fiji orangetail is named Camille.

My GSP is named King Koopa, and quite aptly because he was the biggest and fattest at the LFS where I got him! Like a mini tank. =)

We have two figure eights, one actually has the pattern of an eight on its back and is named Herbie (after the volkswagen) and the other is named Otto. (Otto von Zeppelin) because they look like blimps. :D

I'm pretty sure my Fahaka's name is going to be set at Giles.

Fiance wanted to name him Duff- I wanted to name him Cpt.Bark-Bark.

Neither of us agreed.
