I am going to go ahead and ask this. I hope it has an answer.

On spongebob squarepants, there is a character that appears from time to time. I am fairly sure he is a “random” character. Much like how Sesame street has “anything muppets” to be a ‘throwaway’ person / NPC if you will.

I was surprised to find out that Scooter had a name. (The Surfer’fish’ from Ripped pants, and other episodes.) Therefore I think this character might have a name.

In the episode “Hooky” he is the fish that tells Squidward that he [on an implied ‘second thought’] would like his meal to go, after spongeobob makes a scene.

I believe he is also the fish that orders a Pizza from the Krusty Krab, and complains that he didnt get his Diet Dr. Kelp.

In short, does this character have a name?
