No, but I've tried. I even tried to name cars in the past, but the names never stuck. I loved my last car more than a human should love a hunk of metal (I cried when I traded it in), but yet I could not get a name to stick.
Same for the bikes. We just refer to them by their model names: Isis, Classic, Tricross, Roubaix, etc Luckily, there are no repeats at the moment.
We suck at naming anyway. Our dogs have two of the most popular dog names ever. And our cat is named 'Kitty'. We really need to branch out a bit, I think.![]()

GLC, lol. So the goat is known as "goat"?
Actually, one of them came with a name (Sasafrass) and the other one we just named 'Buddy' after we started referring to him as that. "come here little buddy....here you go, little buddy...do you like apples, little buddy?"
We aparently have issues. Good thing we don't kids or they'd probably be called names like "Sonny" and "Lady".![]()

Yes. My Jamis is J'Aimesh, my GT mountainbike was named (not by me but by a friend) "Jewish bike" because it was given to me by a Jewish friend who put a hebrew decal on the side of it (and I have no idea what it says but someone told me it says, "this pleases me", my old Giant Cadex is the Wee Giant (it's a smallish bike) and the one I just traded was the Booberry.
The new one that's coming will be named upon arrival, but I was thinking, "The Changeling."
I can do five more miles.
Got Shane, the road bike and Simon, the mountain bike... When me and a friend first got back into cycling a couple of years back, we had 2 BSO's called Rocky and Horror (they lived up to their names). Then I ended up with Clive, who was completely the wrong size, so Simon is actually his replacement.![]()
