Does your bike have a name?

[Orange utopia]

My Klein is a beautiful blue silver paint, the kind of paint job only Klein was able to do. When a friend saw her the first time he said "shiny!" and then started singing REM's shinning happy people so I have always called her Shiny.

My utopia is Flower Power because of the orange flower stickers I put on her.

I bought a "Robin's Egg Blue" Surly Cross Check that I'm waiting on. Not sure what the name will be. My Trek FX 7.3 is Scout from To Kill A Mockingbird. The Cross Check is sturdy, utilitarian, quirky, and pretty ...like a Bulldog. So I'm thinking the name needs to represent the quirky/solidness, but sound "sexy" to compensate. lol

Ideas?

I have never named my bike...can't even come up with anything that fits...hmm. It is a Cannondale Synapse in brushed aluminum and swirly designs on it. Any ideas?

I have a bike of many different parts. And right now it has mis-matching tires. So i've thought of calling it "Ragamuffin" but that's a little long. I usually just call it "bikey bike". Which isn't much shorter, i guess. But kind of follows calling my boyfriend's car "Jeepy Jeep". Not very creative.

I just started cycling again after a break of many years. My bike is dark purple cannondale aluminum frame with some components that are probably about 20 years old. Yes, I even have down tube shifters.

It's name is Professor Plum

My Orbea is so gorgeous she has to be female. Yes, I talk to her...usually when I'm feeling guilty because she's been leaning against the wall for a week and I'm promising we'll ride soon. I call her Charlie. It came to me after a fall mid-ride. I had some pretty bad scrapes and blood running down my leg for about 30 miles and I kept thinking "That hurt, Charlie...and it still hurts" (in a British accent).

for the bike of many parts, mongerel, pot pourri, mixmatched, heinz 57, scrappie and bits (as in bits and bobs or bits and pieces) spring to mind.

My Trek pilot the one and only bike I own started out as blue bike which got shortened to BB which got lengthened to BeBe because I had a huge blue stuffed bunny in my younger years that was referred to as BB and I thought BeBe (pronounced a la francais as BeyBey)was a little leaner, meaner and more fun.

How about Frankenbike?
