Animal Man.

Second is B'Wanna Best

Lobo isn't patterned after an animal, or even named after one.

or are we just doing specific animals?

El Papagayo isn't really a superhero as muc has he is a bandito.
For the benefit of people who don't know, "Papagayo" is Spanish for "parrot."

He might be named Wolf but he isn't themed on a Wolf. He's called Wolf because he is a pisstake of Wolverine.

He is named after an animal, THAT'S what I meant.

According to the Main Man himself, "Lobo" is a name given to him by the Khunds, meaning "He who devours your entrails and thoroughly enjoys it." So, he's named for his violence, not an animal that people from space wouldn't know about anyway.

Seriously. The Wolf thing is a conscious reference to Wolverine, but in the comics that has nothing to do with it.

Hawkman. Just recently started reading this title. Finally found all of the new series and the JSA issues where he returns. What a fascinating character! A good writer could really do a lot with him. And for the most part I really, really enjoyed the recent series...a little disappointed that they changed it to Hawkgirl though.
