• Do you name your devices?
    75 replies, posted
I was curious if I'm the only one who does this, but I always end up assigning a name to my computers and devices and stuff and referring to them by name instead of saying "my computer" or "my phone". My current PC is named Franziska, my previous one was named Victoria. I also name all my mobile devices (MP3 Players and Phones) Awesome-O. My phone is currently Awesome-O V3 Do you name your devices? If so, what are their names?

the only thing i have named is my school laptop which is known as funky student
[QUOTE=onebit;45841144]For what purpose do you name your devices?[/QUOTE] Not any particular reason other than remembering which is which I guess. Also makes them feel a little more personable to me.

Currently sticking with "Lappy 486". Kept to the tradition after calling my first desktop the "Compy 386". [editline]Dear Stro-I mean Stonecycle. Do you go to bed with your boxing gloves and wrestling mask on?[/editline] [img]http://i.imgur.com/42uBhv2.png[/img]
I also like naming my harddrives after Greek things, so my current drive is named Daedalus
I name my Mobile Devices "Agent -". The dash is usually the part where I put the last two number digits of my phones serial number. Though as of recent my iPhone 4S is named Animus.
[QUOTE=HWECQI;45841436]I also like naming my harddrives after Greek things, so my current drive is named Daedalus[/QUOTE] I do the same but with my computers. My laptop is Icarus (linux) and Prometheus (windows). My desktop is Apollo (linux) and Daedalus (windows). I may have some of those mixed up. I think I had an Odyssey at one point, too.

My 128GB SSD is named 'Windows & Updates' and my 3TB hard drive is named 'Everything Else' Also I have a 32GB USB stick named SKYNETVIRUS

Drives are named useful things like 'OS' and 'Data' and whatnot. PC itself is called Serenity.
Honami for my phone
My old HDD was called Glados but when I got a new hybrid drive I called it Glados Reborn. My laptop is called GladosMINI.
M60 Patton for my computer

I only named my phone like this: [t]http://imgur.com/T2XhyUx.jpg[/t] Mostly because my phone is a Re-release of the S3 Mini from earlier this March
Yep, I'm on Facepunch.
I named my PC Sandra. I probably never mentioned her name for the past half years.
My computer has always been Alex-PC and always will be.
I call my old classic DS (y'know, the very first model, the "phat" one with the GBA support) "Hinges". One of its hinges are busted after what I think was a toss across the room. Still works perfectly fine. [img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/67144542/Drawings/2014/Scraps/395_Aug30_Hinges.png[/img] its still my babbu that I use from time to time
