Has anyone named their machine?

[Gem99ultra]

ah, It's fun, reading the names people have came up with. And they usually have some self meaning. I'm not so original:

Kubota L3400 HST - Buda

Harley Ultra Classic - Big Red (although it's red and black)

Chevy 1/2 ton step side - Green Truck (it doesn't deserve any more importance that that!)

I hate to be a party-pooper, but for me, I believe names should only go on boats and airplanes, and then, very sparingly....

If you're OK with naming floating pieces of wood, plastic and other materials or an aluminum/wood/fabric/plastic construction that can fly; why would you have any problem naming an assembly of steel/cast iron/plastic and rubber that performs work on a solid surface? Even sparingly?

Yeah, naming inanimate objects might seem a little silly to some, but I've been called worse LOTS worse.

I have mention couple names Mrs. weren't to fond of.

No special moment yet for name.

I know that sometimes when my tractor really is pulling a load a will say come on "baby". Most of the time when it breaks down,gets stuck,or is to small for a job I simply say "That piece of S--T" Its never the Dummy running it its always the tractors fault-go figure.

I call my Kubota BX24 BamBam, the world's strongest baby from the Flintstones.

OK, OK, I'll have to admit, I like Bambi and Thumper....but only if they include the nose art.

Without the nose art, I never would have named them.
