Common names are confusing. You can find more than one, and they may vary by region. It is best to stick to scientific names as confusion is less likely.

Ya I know but my boss wants the common names to sell them. :/

Your boss would gain much more credibility if the shop used the latin names.

Common names are essentially rubbish. You can call it a Flaming Lipped Tarantula and it would technically be right, as I am sure someone out there called one that at some point.

Oh we use the latin name too but he likes to put both.

Google search would be your boss' best friend for this

As was mentioned, there are multiple common names for each species. There is no definitive there.
