I agree that there isn't a wrong way or a right way, it is just a matter of preference. I personally prefer the (colour) with (colour) skirt descriptions much more than some silly name. As a scientist Bob, I'm surprised you don't prefer it as well - just seems more logical and informative. The goofy names, they're for entrepreneurs not scientists. Someone once figured out that you can sell "crap center zoanthids with crap skirts" for a LOT more money on ebay if you just called them "Purple People Eaters" instead. Appreciating the value of hype, others have followed suite with the "metallic acids", "mean greens" and "safecrackers" etc.
