Did you name your iPad - intentionally or not?

[navychop]

My wife put her new iPad in a red case, so I once casually referred to it as "Padski." As in, Comrade.

It seems to have stuck.

My wife calls her phone "phoney" and her MBP, "Macky".

For me. My iPad is just known as an iPad. Unlike my wife whom names everything she owns, I do not name objects.

not an ipad, but my brother calls his hp touchpad Tabatha. I started calling mine that too lol.

No name for my iPad or iPhone. But I baby them both.

I do have an old windows machine I call "stupid piece of s#%^"

My Toshiba laptop is "Toshi" (short for Toshiba).

Me either but my wife does.

The only electronic device I ever named was my GPS, that has a woman's sexy voice. I called the GPS: "E-lane"

My assistant and I both got the habit of calling the GPS "E-lane" but one trip I needed an extra assistant so I hired one of my voice over talents to go on the trip. Her name was Elaine which got interesting when we started to mock the directions from E-lane.

I'm sorry; I have to admit that I name all of my electronics.

Actually, I think it was the OP.

LOL!
I called my Mac Book Pro with Final Cut an "over-paid, lazy, do nothing, waste of everyone's time" once.


The irony of that is the MacBook Pro has found a new life working hard in my daughter's house and my ipad3 has finally replaced my Dell Laptop.

Now it appears the poll is giving us the finger

That is what I call myself.

Our last GPS we called Chatty Cathy, for obvious reasons. Name stuck even after we silenced her.

New GPS? Well let's just say the names we call it are not as nice as the names for Windows machines.

Agreed on that one. Have NOT had much luck with Garmin Nuvi lately that is for sure.

I used to call my Nexus One phone Nexy. Perhaps doing so threw my daughter into a jealous rage, prompting her to throw poor Nexy down 12 flights of stairs. My iPads don't really have specific names, but collectively I call them "Another reason for my wife and I to not talk to each other in bed."
