Naming random things!
So I think Vyolette was the first person to make one of these threads (I might be wrong), but it's sunk beyond topping, so I decided to make a new one!
Does anyone out there besides me name random things? Or am I just crazy?
I think you're just crazy.
No one said Æs were allowed here, Sam. *ahem* Anyway, this is a thread for people to post random, non-living things you've named!
Here are some of mine if anyone cares:
- When I was little and learning how to ride a bike without training wheels, I had a bike named Spirit, who had coaster brakes. I hated the coaster brakes and eventually got another bike with hand brakes (if that's what they're called), which I named Ranger. My current bike is called the Ebon Hawk after a spaceship from a video game.
- I have a ukulele named Perversus (long story).
- My iPad is named Plum after its purple case.
I'll post more later, but rn I need to walk my dogs.

My iPad is named Paddy and my MacBook Air is named Aerie. I have more, I’m sure, but none I can think of at the moment.

Haha, I don't think I created the original thread, but I do remember posting on it! *zooms through CB to check* Ah, Lucy B./aFountainPen created it. But oh well, it doesn't really matter. XD
- I have a favorite pen that I've dubed "Favorite Purple Pen". Yeah... I'm so original. ;)
- I have my cherished childhood stuffed animals still, though I don't sleep with them any more. I have a duck, named Ducky, and a blanket, named Blanky.
- Ah, I named one of my bikes too! XD I think it was called like "Racer" or "Mountain Climber" (No clue why...) or something like that.
- I don't know if this quite counts because everything that other people have named seems to be innaimate, but: there's a stray bunny who occasionally prowls about my family's yard, and I've named him Reginald, or Reggie for short. XD
- I've recently nicknamed my little brother "Piglet" because of how high the pitch of his voice rises whenever he's excited or upset. XD

I attempted to make Siri respond to "Hey, Friday", but she wouldn't do it...

My guitar is named 'Honeybee' and my water bottle is 'Lil Monkey' (named after one of the many stickers that adorn it). I also have a stuffed dog named Apple.

I was reading an article of things that kids renamed, and I found one that was pretty funny.
A five year old boy called a rhinoceros a "battle unicorn!"
(October 23, 2018 - 6:56 am)
That is really quite accurate.

...
Yeah no nothing comes to mind.
...
Wow I have no childhood this is sad.
...
Ummmm...
...
The closest thing I can think of is my nickname for my nickname for my wool blanket, which isn't really a nickname it's more of an abbreviation. I call it 'my wooly' whenever I don't feel like saying 'my wool blanket'. Yeah, I never really was a child at heart it's really sad. I've always been called 'Old Soul' by my family.

I name literally everything. Not counting my 200 stuffed animals, my iPad is Crystal, my flute is Charlotte, my laptop is Layla, my phone is Kristy (there’s a long story behind it), my bike is Binny, and my backpack is Alana. The GPS is Gina, the other GPS is Jenna, my dad’s truck is Slyvia, my Mom’s car is Carrie... I could really go on forever. Lol. Cool thread.
