I know I do. My family does it all the time: names for cars, computers, sometimes a nickname for a favorite place. Do any of you do that?

I named my headset, well me and a friend. We had some school project that included the use of a mic. and we one day started calling it 'The Universal Mic. Of Brotherhood'
I think we named the computer mouse too, 'Mr. Clicky' :shock:

Oh my! Do we ever. XD

The family car is Christine. My brother's car is Susan. That's right. He rides Susan.
My hair's name is Fritz; my brother's hair is Sally. My school locker's called Baby. As in, "C'mon, Baby, please work already... :*frantic lock combination*:"

My family and I name the tractors, trucks... The very old tractor is called "Grandpa" the smaller and younger tractor is "Little Brother" and the other one has a name but I can't spell it. I think it's Polish. And our SUPER old truck is called the "Green Bomb" or the "Hulk"

And this is jsut a family joke but we sometimes call our farm the "Good Nuf Ranch"

We named our GPS direction thingy "Mildred" because it sounds like an English name and the thingy has an accent.

We named my dad's car "Dora". Why? It's an explorer.

...

It's funny. Laugh.

We named our Roomba robot vaccum cleaner "Rosey", like from The Jetsons (I think they were called)

There once was a cat.
He wasn’t particularly fat.
Fuzzy was his favorite mat.
And really, that was that.

Oh, but did you really think so?
Keep reading, it’s just the start of the show!
And as for how far this tale will go…
Well, even the cat doesn’t know.

I've never understood this ;) We tried naming my mum's car once but it just sounded so ridiculous. In fact, I've forgotten the name now.
