Nudibranch Common Names

I am synonymizing all Eastern Pacific nudibranch English common names with the new edition: Behrens et al, "Nudibranchs and Sea Slugs of the Eastern Pacific," 2022. This means that some of your old faves (Hermissenda crassicornis, Abronia abronica, Acanthodoris lutea, etc) will have slightly different, possibly new-to-you primary common names. Yes, your old favorite names are still retained. Ah, change...

Neat. Which changes do you anticipate will cause the most heartburn?

I think the Sea Goddesses got the short end of the stick. Does an Orange-peel Doris smell like Sandalwood?
