what is a good name for a girl betta

Hi,
Today I got a tank from my great aunt (fishlore name CapeKate). I will soon be getting a female bettafish. Could you help me find a good color and name that I could use for her.That would be nice if you could think of this.

Thank ~ you

Just go for a female that appeals to you. Then when done, post some pics and we will give you some suggestions. What size of tank is it?

You need to be a certain rank to post polls. Why don't you(Kate) post a poll for her and say so in the poll?

Kate, O mother of the stooges ... i'd be glad to make a poll for GypsyGirl if you'd like to give me her top choices, or you can post one like Tom suggested?

I did suggest Curly to her..

Re: what is a good name for a girl betta

GypsyGirl.. you'll know the Betta girl for you when you go in and look at them. we picked our Angel (my baby) because she looked at me with a "take me home" look.. we picked out little Sweetie because she was in bad shape from being attacked and was going to die in the cup.. it's really something that just happens.

How bout, ... Grace.

I say "Grace" because they seem to move so beautifully in the water, soft, flowing... graceful.

Re: what is a good name for a girl betta

I always think it's odd when people ask for name suggestions - it's like kids. They tell you what they should be. You'll know what their name is when you spend a little time with them.

Re: what is a good name for a girl betta

yea.. we like to watch ours for a week or so before naming them usually since they have such personalities but you can see on our tanks page, we use names from video games, disney, etc. It's hard to recommend a color since you never know what colors are going to be in the store.. but white ones are so pretty and my fav. color betta.

yah your right, I'll just have to see what color at fish is at the store. One time I saw a beautiful white female betta, she shined pink if I had gotten her and not gypsy, I would of named the white one pearl.

Re: what is a good name for a girl betta

Hello Gypsygirl. I'd love a white one too!! I have Honey, my little girl and she is fab. Plus new boy' Spotty Botty' and mum's boy 'Flame'

I've only had Bettas for a few weeks and the guys on here told me the same as they have said to you, that your fish will choose you etc and it's true, you look at them and then one just says 'hi Mum, can we go home now? this hanging around the store is getting to be REALLY boring!' Same over the name too.

I'm looking forward to seeing her when she finds you!!
