My Kona is Firefly. She has lots of blinking lights for commuting. Fireflies always make me smile. The name suggested itself one night when I was biking around the lake and I saw the flashing of her lights on the water.

The new Giant MTB is Sliver. She is silver and has gotten under my skin.

I always named my guitars. I currently have Pete and Arlo. I have a little Yamaha mission trip/beater we refer to as the "guitar to be named later." At some point it will tell me its name.

I have one daughter who names everything, and two who don't. All our computers have names (it's a Mac thing, I think). My iPod is Elinore. Even my DH refers to these things by their names.
