Okay, here’s a list of different sex positions, focusing on some of the more common and well-known names. Remember, there can be variations in names and interpretations, and many positions don’t have official or universally agreed-upon names.

**Important Considerations:**
* **Slang & Regional Variations:** Many sex positions have slang terms or regional variations in their names. I’ve avoided including those here.
* **Descriptive vs. Named:** Some positions are simply described rather than having a specific name.
* **Focus on Communication:** The most important thing is to be able to describe the position to your partner, regardless of whether you know a specific name for it.
* **No Official Authority:** There’s no official governing body that defines sex position names. The names used can vary depending on the source.
The best approach is to use names as a starting point, but always be prepared to describe the position in more detail to ensure that you and your partner are on the same page. Have fun exploring!
