Best Answer

A lot of protists have only been recently discovered or due to their small size are virtually unknown to most people. This causes many of them to lack common names. However, for those that do have common names you can usually find them by doing a Google search. Also see the Wikipedia page on protists where many are shown with their common and scientific names.
