When whales are rescued, they get tagged. They also get a rather unimaginative name — something like "Willy" (from Free Willy).
Greenpeace has a poll where you can name the next rescued whale.
Most of the choices are very earthy and multicultural. For example:
Aiko – means ‘little love’ in Japanese
Gana – means ‘song’ in Hindi
Kigai – means ‘strong spirit’ in Japanese
Nurani – means ‘conscience in Bahasa Indonesia
Talei – means ‘special, rare or extremely valuable’ in Fijian
They also through in one joke-y name. Well, with the polls almost closed, guess which whale name is prevailing:
Looks like a runaway for Mister Splashy Pants, although you can still vote.
