Hong Kong's Chep Lap Kok Airport, I wonder who the brain was that picked that name for the airport.

Named after a catfish?
Chek Lap Kok island is located north of Lantau Island off Ma Wan Chung and got its name from the fact that the red perch (³à÷v fish with whiskers) was once abundant in its vicinity.
