I'm getting 2 male Platy fish that are native to Mexico/South America. I would love suggestions of names that reflect their origins, the funnier and more ridiculous the better!

 

Go :)

Hope this helps!

Alejandro, Alfonso, Carmen, Catalina, Dominique, Edwardo, Enrique, Felipe, Fernando, Isabella, Ishmael, Jose, Lola, Rafael, Raimundo, Raquel, Renaldo, Tobias, Victor, Xavier

These were my favorite for Spanish Origin Names, sorry it's male heavy.

My top 2 for male names: Alejandro & Fernando (just cause I think it's funny cause they're both featured in the Lady Gaga song.)

My top 2 for female names: Carmen & Catalina

thanks! they're both going to be male so there's no need to apologise about male-heaviness. I should have said in my original post that I'm from Australia so I am pretty clueless when it comes to anything Mexican. It's not really a big part of our culture the way it is in the U.S. :)

thanks, those are great.

[biancasablancas.livejournal.com]

well, I DID read somewhere that when kept by themselves, 2 male platys are prone to getting aggressive!

[a-tergo-lupi.livejournal.com]

Well there you go!

[sarahk-2009.livejournal.com]
