Poor you. It looks like Pisces had a distinct lack of major stars. Stars in constellations are often called by Greek letters in order from brightest down. Alpha Piscium is the brightest star in Pisces and is named ALRESCHA. Beta Piscium is second brightest, gamma is 3rd, and so on in Greek alphabet alphabetical order. Eta is the 7th letter of the Greek alphabet, and Eta Piscium is the 7th brightest star in Pisces and is named KULLAT NUNU. I couldn't find any more names. See the sources.
