I have a soft spot for rosy maple moths because my first trans character was based on one :') they're good moths, brent

i think luna moths are super cool! they're really beautiful, i think they even put most butterflies to shame
elephant beetles are also really cool, they're shaped like a friend.
ok not technically bugs but hear me out
jumping spiders of (almost) all kinds (esp peacock jumpers) are my favourite animals! this one in particular is my #1 fave (being maratus personatus - here's a video of them! i love this man's videos of jumpers, they're lovely)
These guys. Small tortoiseshell butterflies. They're a bit rare in urbanized areas so it always cheers me up when I see one, especially as it signals to me that summer has come. When I was a kid I liked to chase them around (never to hurt them - I'd try to carefully catch them under my hat or my domed palms). I also caught some of the caterpillars (who feed on stinging nettles!) and fed them to adulthood in a transparent plastic bucket, at which point I let them go.
Also ladybugs. There are other bugs that I like but they're the "locally available" ones.
