What is the name of goldfish?

Goldfish don't have one specific name. The term "goldfish" is the common name for a group of domesticated fish species that are all related to the wild Prussian carp.

Here are some things to keep in mind about goldfish names:

* "Goldfish" is a general term: It refers to the entire group, similar to how "dog" refers to various breeds.

* Breed names exist: Goldfish have many different breeds, each with its own unique name like Fantail, Telescope, Oranda, etc.

* Individual names: Like any pet, you can give your goldfish a specific name of your choosing.

So, the name of your goldfish depends on what you're asking! Is it the general term for the species, the specific breed, or the name you've given to your own fish?
