Default Do you name your goldfish?

We have had several goldfish - both comets and commons. We have three goldfish
left - all comets.
They are **Goldie** ('cos that's what everyone calls their firsh goldfish),
**Treasure** (keeps with the "Gold" theme) and
**Blackfin** (it had all its fins outlined in black when we got it - it's all
orange now).
We also had **Beauty** (it was the most beautiful, died at 16 months),
**Blackie** (had black spot on its head, died at 16 months),
**Frosty** (white comet, died at 16 months - a week after Beauty),
**Smoky-Joe** (a smoky grey common),
**Silver** (one of the original 5 - kept with the "Goldie/Treasure theme, died
a week later),
**Snowball** (our hugest fish. Gave to friend with large pond and it turned
orange and was renamed by new owner to "Tangerine")
