    Hi,

    I have 4 Pacific Chorus Frogs - Pseudacris regilla

    2 males - Alto and Niko
    2 females - Pako and Hilo

    My 4 year old son came up with the names Pako and Niko, and then it turned into a "theme", four letter words ending in "o". lol

    It works, and I came up with the other 2 names, Alto and Hilo. Alto is the definate "singer/croaker" of the group and the biggest male. And Hilo is the smallest female that changes colors the most often and she made me think of Hilo with it's beautiful gardens in Hawaii.

    Mickey and Mallory - Pair of breeding Ranitomeya ventrimaculata "Rodyll". Cause these two just rocks.
    Gretel (female) Melanophryniscus stelzneri. Cause they beat the witch.
    Hansel (Female) Hyla cinerea. Same. And we like to be confusing.
    Google (male) - Leptopelis vermiculatus. Cause I'm a web strategist and Google is my friend.
    Lilith and Link - Bombina orientalis. Cause it's one kick-a*s woman and one great game character.

    I'M getting 5 P. terribilis "Yellow" froglets within the next weeks. We will not name them. But they will be known as "The minions".

    Flip - a great name for a hoppy froggy.
    Flop - came three months later and what goes better with Flip?
    Sushi - a beautiful blue male betta whose tank is next to theirs. This fish is rather personable and nearly communicative and they rather seem to enjoy each other's company.

    I have a pretty blue betta on my desk at work. I named him after my bosses boss because of some obvious similarities. (pretty boy, thinks he's tough...etc..etc) Big hit around the office.

    I think I am enjoying the logic/stories behind the names more than the names themselves!
