I had three dwarf puffers. My wife and I are both big Muppets fans, and it shows.

Biggest DP is named Waldorf
Middle size DP was named Statler - died two days after we bought him :(
Tiny DP (1/3 inch or so) is named Sweetums

Now my wife wants to buy two Dwarf Puffers and name them "Huggy Wuggy" and "Buggy Munger" after a fairly obscure Muppets sketch.

I'd like to get another and name it Manamana, as soon as I figure how its supposed to be spelled :P

Chopper - Tetraodon baileiyi

The name comes from it always hovering about looking for food. :P

I just call all my dwarfs GUYS... I can't really recognise them... :oops:

A. hispidus (stars n stripes):

Toady (he looks like a toad I guess. I didn't name him)

3 D. holocanthus:

Sweet Pea (he likes his peas!)
Smiley (really won't stop grinning)
Spike (duh)

I just realized I need to find names that don't start with s's.

My husband names our puffers, we have had quite a few that have all died within a week. Right now we have a Figure 8 that has survived for a month now and is the sweetest thing I have ever seen. Bill named him Jaws because he thinks he saw him yawn and he's apparently got teeth like a shark. The last puffers we had were sold as pea puffers, found out later that they were just baby Dwarf puffers. They were named peeeeeaaaa pufferrrssssss!

Well, my wife decided that she wanted some dwarf puffers puffers too. So besides the three I mentioned earlier, we've got a couple others:

Hugga Wugga and Buggy Munger (named after a Muppets song). Buggy Munger suffered Death By Castle...

Dr. Teeth (the biggest one now)

Manamana

Beaker (currently our smallest)

Wanda (our only puffer not named for Muppets - my wife couldn't resist having a fish called Wanda!)

Okay, this you must explain.

Hoover
Barney
Filbert
Toby
Spud
Chopper
Tuby
Yoda

Nice names, guys & girls!

My puffs names:

GSP's: Piglet and Porky
Fahaka: F***er (hehe, sorry)
Congo: Cimminin (was Cinnamon, but my niece can't say that, so when she said ciminin it was too cute)
Valentini: hunney


Other neat names:
Lawnmower Blenny named John (John Deere)
2 Skunk clowns named Pepe and lepuney as in "Pepe Lepu" from the cartoons..get it, they're 'skunks'. Anyways, lepuney is the tiny one.

oh and a big hermit crab with fan worms growing all over his shell named clunky.
