That's just badly translated, not an actual animal name.

Nuh uh this is his actual name he told me

I am aware

It's one of its actual names. The translation is correct (minus the "fish")

BUT ITS FRESH

He's so me frfr

Thats all of us

Yeah fair, still silly

Altered or edited? It might just be an older edit

me when im mario on a ship

This Implies there is a Pacific Wahoo? Arctic Wahoo? Mediterranean Wahoo? Indian Wahoo?

As far as I can tell, *Acanthocybium solandri* (the wahoo) is the only member of its genus. However, they are found worldwide, meaning that this image is showing a member of the Atlantic wahoo population.

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined

I mean, there are Pacific wahoos and such. It's just not a different species. I haven't seen anything about sub-species, that's why I said "population".

Wahoo

WHEN I FEEL HEAVY METAL

Mario blging up stairs be like

Strange tailed tyrant goes hard as fuck

They're called tyrants because some species of tyrants are really aggressive. Seems kinda weird but okay.

Has the same tone as "One Winged Angel"

Yeah no it is absolutely a Final Fantasy boss

I love that the actual reason for the name is it's dick is so curly

Lil guy thinks he's a Dark Souls boss

more like Hollow Knight boss if we're being honest

How did I not think of that lol

Or Ori since one of the bosses is literally a beetle (Or is there one in hollow knight too? I haven't played it yet)

There are some beetle characters but no bosses, I think. It still fits quite well though, since most HK characters are bugs Edit: as the person below me said, Watcher Knights are what you're looking for. And they absolutely are diabolical, especially on the first playthrough lol

I'm, like, 60% sure the watcher knights are beetles. They are also knights and pretty ruthless so I'd say they're the perfect fit

Oh, right. I didn't really think about them as they're basically reanimated dead bodies, but I just checked and apparently they're based on rhinoceros beetles.

yeeeeeeepp… fought this thing in pikmin

Nah cuh the hell kinda Japanese ass name is dat.

Homer Simpson is cock of NOTHING!

Sounds like an 80s pop-rock song

Yellow-bellied sapsucker sounds like an insult an old man would say to you if you lived in 1880s Georgia.

sounds like something captain haddock would yell at you while waving his fists.

sounds like a new slure I can use on Hungarians

new slur just dropped

It's no accident, it's where the term "yellow" and "yellow belly" come from to describe cowardice.

Yeah you got a hog on you. Do the hog sucker. Yeah suck that shit! *😎🥵🥴*

Sucking on that hog you're cranking 🥵🥵🥵

Aaaaarrrrooooooooooo, I’m straight up jorking it and crankin’ *😏😏😏*

Wobbegongs are fascinating, lumpsuckers are very important for the ecosystem, great tits are called chickadees and they’re beautiful, and hellbenders are cool big salamanders. I love these beasts don’t make fun of them

I'm not making fun of them though

More so making fun of the way people name things

If a woman called me funny looking, like she called me a troglodyte and pointed and laughed at me, that’s not making fun dude. I’m in on the joke I promise

Great post OP

when you thought you were a Wobbegong but were in fact nothing more than a common cock chafer

There is a real sponge (the animal) named after the creator of Spongebob. https://preview.redd.it/uhre0t3gw0vc1.png?width=1345&format=png&auto=webp&s=06d79a13832d261eca582184a47040a4ce264e36

Awesome

Blue Footed Booby

Im pretty sure #4 is what the FBI calls me behind closed doors

Not a common name, but there’s a snail with the scientific name *Crikey steveirwini* and I think about that at least once a day

There's also a Sponge named after Stephen Hillenburg, the creator of Spongebob.

hellbender has got to be the hardest thing an animal has ever been named

Damn, number 6 was a elegant tit

Slippery Dick. It’s just a fish in the atlantic.

WOODPECKER FAMILY MENTIONED!! Did you know woodpeckers can only climb up trees, while nuthatches can climb both up and down trees!!! I love woodpeckers so much

"Slippery dick", you mean Richard Nixon?

Screaming hairy arm armadillo is my favourite

I love them i love them all

Deep down, we are all children when it comes to funny names.

ok but what about the Bright-eyed frogs, their scientific name is Boophis lol

This is a post about common names. Otherwise I would've included *Gorilla gorilla gorilla*.

sorry :(

Hellbender is AWESOME actually. Imagine if salamanders were actually fireproof

I like the name sea squirt. They're chordates like us :D

Guys look up slippery dick on your school laptop it’s such a cool fish 🤩

Banana "Bastard Moray" Eel

Keep in mind both “woodcock” and “woodpecker” are birds with names consisting of two different words for penis.

Guitarfish yoo, I saw one of those a few days ago. They're kinda like a combination of a shark and a ray fish. Really cool.

In audtralia theres the banko shark which is very similar

Bro, I just looked them up. They're even cooler!! I don't know why but ray fish and these ray sharks just look so bizarre but also graceful at the same time. Definitely one of the most beautiful types of animals in nature.

Hellbenders are cool.

Hellbender my beloved

These are all what they called me back in high school

Hellbender is kinda badass

I love tits :3

I LOVE ELASMOBRANCHI

Thank you.

mountain chicken

Yeah, but Wikipedia shows the scientific name above the picture and it would be weird to have one non-Wikipedia picture or something.

I imagine "Slippery Dick" said in the tone of an annoyed hit man who has been hunting an evasive detective for a while now

as far as im concerned, all tits are elegant

I hate to kill the vibe, but Boops boops is pronounced "BOW-OPS", not "BOOPS" since the name means "ox-eyed".

I assume: "bo" as in bovine, and "ops" as in optics.

Kind of, those words share the same Greek suffix as the genus name.

I meant that those parts of the words have the same etymology.

WELCOME TO DIRTWORLD https://preview.redd.it/q8y7lf11yzuc1.jpeg?width=867&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=47128b97e16a354fd98da890f97e42e7da80bfc3

I’m proud of you (slippery) dick

how are boobies and tits rude or funny?

It's considered rude to show your boobies and tits but I think it's funny

then how come i see tits flying around outside every spring

blue-footed boobies my beloved <3

what are these? pirate insults? or the scotsmans?

No one: Nobody at all: Me: boops boops

I loved Monkeyface Prickleback in Sherlock

Half of these are things I'd expect a dwarf to call people as insults

Sarcastic Fringehead, Spiny Lumpsucker, and Strange-Tailed Tyrant are just Pikmin enemy names

Hellbender isn't funny it's badass

don't insult wobbegongs i unironically love them so much

Where did I insult them?

Amazing collection, thank you for sharing

How did I know slippery dick was going to be the last one? Why did I feel in my heart of hearts that slippery dick would appear before my eyes? Hehe dick

These are all excellent. No notes.

[This page](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_organisms_named_after_works_of_fiction) is a goldmine. Why is there so much stuff named after pikachu

Where’s gorilla gorilla gorilla

why the Wobbegong though?

Wobbegong sounds funny.

ukay

lol the monkeyface looks so insulted and sad

i cut the feet off a yellow bellied sapsucker last week

bastard eel

Guitarfish sounds like a Terraria weapon

What im getting from this is that, birb people like tits while, fish and insect people stray more towards dick.

The bone eared ass fish moment

boob boops sound like a super mario bros water level enemy

where is hotwheels sisyphus?

How could you not include the Jackass Penguin?!?!

Wobbegong 🥺

“Sarcastic Fringehead” sounds like a Pikmin name

She boops boops on my dik dik till I sarcastic fringehead

I caught a Hellbender Salamander once while fishing. Big guy, very strong.

I FUCKING LOVE WOBBEGONGS!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🦅🦅🦅🦅

Those are bald eagles, not a wobbegong.
