FishBase lists over 150,000 common names, clearly excessive for Wikipedia. This list should limit itself to common names of fish taxa (order/family/genus/species) that have articles or are important enough to have their own articles in the future, and to names that FishBase characterizes as English-language names (do interwiki links for non-English names).

To make a start, each 'common' name should be followed by the scientific name (or names), so that wikipediasts know where to begin in writing entries. User:Wetman
Mass-capping the names here is wrong, since not only is its nonstandard for fish species to begin with, but a bunch of genus and family names were capped, and nobody ever thinks that's right. I'm going to revert this unless I hear a very good argument. Stan 00:11, 13 May 2004 (UTC)
Found this at a local market in US. I didn't see it listed here. [1] Acornblue ( talk) 20:08, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

Just a suggestion: This list would better serve as a navigational by providing disambiguations here rather than linking to a bunch of red links and disambig pages.-- ZayZayEM 11:22, 9 September 2007 (UTC) It was awesome!

Shouldnt this page be titled "List of common fish names"? I'll come back a week from now and see if anyone objects to a title that actually makes sense. — ᚹᚩᛞᛖᚾᚻᛖᛚᛗ ( ᚷᛖᛋᛈᚱᛖᚳ) 22:57, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Binomial names of the fishes should be added. Thought?-- Mjs1991 ( talk) 00:37, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

I want to add "European Catfish" to the list. 64.79.53.120 ( talk) 13:27, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
Hello,
it seems that in the page /info/en/?search=List_of_fish_common_names there are duplicate entries for the fish 'Yellowfin tuna'. So I suppose one of them should be removed.
Also I found that there is already a Wikipedia page for the fish 'Sargo'. Maybe somebody could add it too in the S section too?
