More Funny Geeky Pet Fish Naming Ideas
If you still need assistance after dealing with the various interesting pet names for fish, you could create a name based on which member of your family prefers. One exciting idea is to get a hat and have everyone come up with a single name for the specific pet fish. Everyone puts their name in the hat, and you simply shake it. Then, one by one, take the names from the hat and place them on the desk.
After each name is placed on the desk, everyone can go around creating an interesting name that incorporates each of the names from the hat. You might end up with the longest, silliest name you’ve ever heard on your fish, and everyone in your family might be pleased that they got to help name the newest member of the family.
Because fish, unlike other family pets, are not aware of their names, the possibilities for very long, foolish, or even crazy names for your own humorous pet fish names are virtually limitless.
