I have just bought 2 fish and I was wondering what to call them. They are Red Oranda (Fantails). One is Orange with white tips and the other is Orange with Black markings. I was thinking about Piwee for the black one. What do you think?

I have decided to call them Piwee and P.G (P.G - because of P.G Tips as she has white tips on her tail!) Thanks for all you answers, most of them were loved and appreciated, but others were well ... not!
Thanks

Piwee is cute, so is flounder! Why not confuse people and call him "Bob", it works with my rabbit, "dave"

I do like your Names! Is Houdini good at jumping out?! I have 11 white cloud minnows all stated as jim 3 bristle nostril catfish all stated as Raymond or ray for short. A male lady pair of Australian empire gudgon stated as bruce and sheila and a couple of gold loaches stated as Arnold. I call a similar species a similar call Coz they don't look to be ordinary to inform aside. Oh and a Cory catfish stated as Natalie she's named after my female friend!

If we go with a native american naming convention:
Orange Fish with White Tips, Not Food
Orange Fish with Black Markings, Not Food
Don't Die, Orange Fish with White Tips, I just bought
Don't Die, Orange Fish with Black Markings, I just bought

If you are housing them in a bowl, name them Dead and Deader.
Goldfish cannot live in bowls.
Baby to juvenile fancy goldfish need 10 gallons PER fish. (orandas, ryukins, fantails, ect.)
Adults will need atleast 50 gallons PER fish.
They need alot of filtration and Weekly partial waterchanges because they excrete alot of ammonia.
Also since fancy goldfish have been inbred to get their deformities (wen on the orandas head), their intestines are smooshed in their fat egg like bodies and are prone to swim bladder problems. To prevent swim bladder problems, soak the flake food for a couple minutes before feeding it to them so they dont gulp air, and if they do get swim bladder problems feed them a shelled green pea cut into bite size pieces. Use fresh or frozen/thawed, Never used canned because of the preservatives and salt added.

I think it's great that some people actually care enough to name their fish! ^_^ Here are some names that promote mystery:
Shadowfin
Hazelore
Qalona
These are for cuteness:
Inky
Oranges
Blobbet
And these are just normal names...
Sunbeam
Ebony
