    I hope I am not the only one who does!

    I don't name electronics, but I have named my cello and ukulele.

    My cello is called Hewitt, and my ukulele is called Zucco.

    Anyone else do it?(!)

    My acoustic guitar is named "Genevieve" after the singer Genevieve Schatz.
    My electric guitar is named "George Michael" after the character in Arrested Development.
    My bass guitar is named "Benji" just cuz.
    My ukelele is named "Squirtle" because she reminds me of one.
    I haven't named my keyboard...it doesn't have as much of a personality as my other instruments if that makes sense...

    I feel like the relationship isn't the kind that merits a name to be given to my iPad or computer. However, my piano's name (yes, piano) is named Chopin. (Yeah, not very original, I don't care. He's my favorite composer. ._.)

    I name many things, even if people think it's weird. I named my Bass Guitar after candy - pop rocks! I forgot the amp's name.

    On a side note, I named my Android Tablet Einstein, and I don't think Einstein would have a problem with that.

    Ah, good 'ol Betsy and me have been through some hard times. That moment when she started leaking... I almost got a heart attack, but it was all good. Now I clean her everyday, and she treats me well. Just the other day, we had this thing we did together, and she was just amazing! Like, flying through it all. At night she whispers into my ear, because she knows that without her soothing voice I can't fall asleep. She is there, waiting for me when I wake up, being the first thing that I embrace, helping me make friends. Her stoic stature is what gives me confidence throughout the day, the strength needed to get past everything, knowing that in the end I'll come back home, to her... and we can be together.

    - Is what I would have written, had I actually given a name to my PC. Fortunately I tend to not give names to inanimate objects, as they are nothing more than a tool to get a job done.
