![]() ![]() Credits: 520 | Thanks to Microsoft's "My ___" theme, users kinda have to name their computer, whether or not they're on a LAN. It'll end up being called OEMCOMPUTER or something anyway. People always seem to name cars, maybe as a carryover from sailors naming ships. I just call mine "the Matrix" (Tokyo 2040, Priss's bike is just "Moto-slave" and it has an AI!). I'm not sure about people naming toasters, but there are probably other household appliances that get names based on their "personalities". |

| Newbie | I not sure naming appliances could be consider normal, kind of weird; naming your computers it's ok... i guess. About cars, the only persons that name theirs are girls, they always give their rides cute names, oh, and my guy cousin that calles his truck BAD BOY! |

![]() ![]() Credits: 110 | I don't think it's really bad, just... a little weird (no offense). For my comp, it's just known as "My Baby" to all my friends.

![]() ![]() Credits: 210 | Well, ... the ipod allows one to name it, so, I guess it's not necessarily wrong ... or un-cool...
