When I made this comic, the Wikipedia page for "woodlouse" had a really long "common names" section. In early 2023, somebody pruned the section with the reasoning that Wikipedia "isn't Urban Dictionary" and most of the names were "unsourcable", but the older version of the article is still accessible here.
Here's the list taken from that version of the article:
