Ever wanted a species named after you?

[guppy]

I would love to have a species named after me, maybe it is just ego but to be able to open a reference book, point to a picture of a fish, and say that one is mine, would just make me feel warm and fuzzy.
Buying the name though, that seems a bit shallow.
If it was something that I found, or first identified, now that would be classic.
My second choice would require me to win a lottery first. If I had the funds I would be sponsoring, and accompanying, annual fish collecting trips to poorly sample areas. The catch would be that if new species were found one would bear my name.

i think most of the names will be sold to companies, and not individuals like the GoldenPalace.com Monkey. Goldenpalace.com (an online casino) bought the naming rights for $650,000.00 to name a new species of monkey.
Although, if I had the chance to name one, i would have no hesitation in naming it after myself. But I would rather name a species I discovered myself rather then having the opportunity because i am mister money bags.
