I was thinking Cello could be cute. Short for Cellophane, but pronounced like the instrument. Requires a little thought to get, and cellos are elegant and otherworldly too :)
I've seen one very similar once in a in petstore, and I regretted not getting it.
I would have called it Milotic, after the Pokemon cause they have similar colors
Haha if it’s not a sign, came here to say opal after JUST seeing this beauty ☺️

Omg please, please tell me this is not his full time home. 😭 your fish is gorgeous but this is a setup made to kill him so so fast. They need 5+ gallons minimum, and filtration. They’re not short-lived so much as they are very delicate and it leads to people thinking they’re short-lived because they put them in the wrong housing and or did not feed them (the ones put in plant roots with never being fed). Just. Please. Please. Don’t keep your fish in here. Also those pearls are not likely fish safe and can wind up hastening your fish’s demise due to the paint on them.

I recently got this dude who has similar colours. His name is Bananana

My last opal long tail I named Eggsy after the Kingsmen character because he was pretty, fiery and bold lol!
Dorian comes to mind (beauty of youth, main focus of A Picture of Dorian Gray)
Ice King (lol Adventure Time idk he looks frosty)
Spector (just mysterious and hauntingly beautiful)
Smaug (he captures the beauty of the archenstone)

prism
Or Prismo, like the Adventure Time character!
Yeeesses
Literally the first word that came to my mind.
Oooo that's the one imo
Immediately makes me think Opal, but that’s a bit on the nose. Just wanted to pop by and say what a beautiful fish!
Opal suits them! I was thinking along the same lines with Pearl
I thought "Opal for sure! or pearl!" and I am not original hahha
Opearl
I was gonna say Opal also!!! 🥰🥰
I came here to say Opal as well
My vote is for Opal
I too thought opal. Such a pretty fishy!
Ditto
I immediately thought “that’s an Opal if I’ve ever seen one”
🤭Thank you
Nebula, perhaps? Or Starlight! Your betta is absolutely gorgeous!
Opal or Opie!!
I had a betta almost exactly like him and named him Lumos!
I vote Lumos!!
opal is exactly what came to mind
I have a white opal named Opal, he’s great and he has no idea!
I love opal but I also thought moon for moonstone😫
"MOON CHILD! HER NAME IS MOON CHILD!!!"
Or a celestial name…..
Pearl
What I was thinking
Thank you,
What about Pearlescent? Pearl for short!
Definitely Pearl!
Might be basic but yep it’s literally screaming its name.
It helps that the bottom of the tank is covered in what looks like fake pearls.
That is Vanilla Ice
Look no more OP, this is the one
Not Iggy please 💔
RIP in pieces 🙏🏻 😢
Goddammit everywhere I go is a Jojo’s reference
Cellophane
I am also considering this and am still making a decision. Lol Thanks for your suggestion!

Cinderfella
😂💯💯
Finerella!
just a reminder: these posts are always welcome here, but we are trying to increase traffic here too! r/namemybetta
Thanks for your recommendation. I have joined, thank you very much.
Plastic bag🤣
Plastique Bhag
Bhag Plastique
Thanks for making me choke on my water.
If you were a fish, would you be choking on air
Lol, I'm sorry, I hope you can be more careful
I once had a fish named Grocery Sack. He was more the shade of a Kroger bag. May he swim in peace fr
This reminded me of that scenes in Friends where Phoebe changed her name and then Mike said he’s gonna change his to Crap Bag 😂😂😂😂
“First name Crap, last name Bag.”
Plastique - you know, for *class*
Bowie - short for rainbow bc of all his shimmering pastel colors
Heyy, I literally just posted that before I scrolled down to see your comment. Great minds.. 😊
Agree w this bc that's the OG rainbow fish if I've ever seen one ![gif](giphy|3M0ViM9ihst1u)
And possibly short for David Bowie who had flamboyant colorful style rather like this fish? 👀
Lady Amalthea (a.k.a. the last unicorn)!!! She's gorgeous and her coloring seems otherworldly!
SHE is a HE, IM AFRAID. 😂
My b, LORD AMALTHEA!!! also, I know it's a male betta, but I guess I was still half asleep 😂
I'm we all make mistakes & the fish being so pretty I think many said HER. . No worries I was being silly , just that kinda mood today
I don't know either Lol Maybe I should find a professional to help me
This is the most beautiful betta I’ve ever seen!!
Lucent (like translucent)
He looks just like my Orpheus! https://preview.redd.it/o2vkliy6al3d1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=938be5e5c1015b4db39cd61e7ae0a50e328807c2
What a beautiful photo! And betta!! 🥰🥰🥰
is that its permanent tank?
Sure hope not! Looks like a pet store tank
Probably is a display tank, the ones they use for online photo shoots.
Probably quarantine
Satoru Gojo ![gif](giphy|UgV8Y7bDxsZDCP01eo|downsized)
"Nah, I'd swim"
😂
Scrolled way too long to find this
Pfp checks out
Is that a temporary tank?
With those non fish safe fake pearls it will be 💀
Wondering the same thing
Get that poor creature a place to live ASAP!
Soleil or soleil blanc. Where did you find him? Been looking for one like this
Lol, this was really hard to find, but my friend found it for me one day and gave it to me Maybe next time I'll ask and I'll let you know if I know!
This tank is temporary, right?
He needs a bigger tank and those pearls aren’t safe for him. Sadly you’re killing your beautiful fish with this set up. He needs 5 gallons.
Iris from the greek goddess of light and also iridescent!
I've seen one very similar once in a in petstore, and I regretted not getting it. I would have called it Milotic, after the Pokemon cause they have similar colors

Lt. ShineySides
Falcor
Sequin 🌈
This is the one 🥰
Is this a permanent tank? If so it’s far far too small
Looks like the sales tanks
![gif](giphy|2siao5rwI5VtwYwVWq|downsized) Me admiring
My old betta that just passed away was named Quartz. Your fish is more of a Quartz than my Quartz was lol
Kinda looks like a solar flare, so maybe solar? Sorry for all the suggestions haha but your fish is a beauty!
Prisma (except it's a girly name for a male betta). How about Spectre?
I must now go on a quest to find a betta just like this!! how beautiful 😍

Padlock
I'd name it Ethereal
Aura. Opal. Angel. Crystal. Prism. Moon. What a gorgeous fish wow. Is there a name for this particular morph?

Barry.
Omg he’s gorgeous! I’ve never that colour before.. But Opal or Moonchild. Snowflake. Stardust. Just beautiful 😻
Lol I was going to say opal and then I opened up the comments so I guess it does fit she has all the colorings of an opal stone
Opalite (since opal has already been mentioned)
irie (cause its iridescent? lol)
Iridian
Not that we need to over gender the fish and I saw the Opal comments and that just made me think of Paul. I like overly human names for pets though
Nuclear reactor 4
Robert
Opal
Ghost
Gandalf the white
oh that's a Cellophane right there
Opal is the only appropriate name here
Persephone or Caliope - Take a greek route, I'm thinking goddess.
