I am having a heck of a time trying to name this little puff. It's a figure 8. I'm not sure yet what gender I want to call it either. Here's a few names I am considering
Newo
Alyosha
Torrance (or Jack Torrance)
Mort (or Mort Rainey)
Fletcher
And I'm always open to new suggestions. I tend to get most of the names of my fish from bands/songs and movies/tv characters.
Anyone wanna throw in their two cents? :)

Call him Coin after the Sourcerer in the Terry Pratchett book Sourcery

Wizards are forbiden to ever mention the number eight, the reason for this is if a Wizard has 8 sons and his 8th son has 8 sons and his 8th son has 8 sons and his 8th son has 8 sons his 8th son will be a Sourcerer the most powerfull wizard imaginable

You have to read the book for it to make sence :)

If you have never read any of Terry Pratchetts books you should give them a try, they're very imaginative, witty, funny, clever books
