    No names here. Mine is the car and Bruce's is the truck, which I sometimes refer to as the Monster. His previous Yukon was the Beast.
    When I was a child I had names for all my stuffed animals. It's actually very strange that I don't name everything since I am such a name fanatic.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I always name my cars, and my parents do too. My Aspire was unofficially named Eeyore but I generally call it "the doodlebug". I also have a parts Aspire appropriately dubbed Scrappy. My Cobalt is Daisy. My first car was an '84 Cougar named Freddie (as in Freddie Mercury).

    My cars all had names:
    Blueberry, my first car, blue Honda hatchback (I was living in Maine, Blueberry country!)
    Black Stallion, black Honda Civic, had more horse power than Blueberry and took me some time to adjust, lol

    And now I have Carmine, my red Prius. Carmine means red, and after a 3 month wait, this "car is all mine." lol.

    Can't think of any other inanimate objects I've named, though.

    Sometimes they have formal names but I never use them. My car is officially Sectumsempra and my external hard drive is Squishy.

    I have never named a car... nor do I refer to it as a she or a he. My mum named my jeep "Olive", though. That word just puts a bad taste in my mouth.

    My computer is named "The Guru", though...
