    We call ours Penelope. She seems somewhat prissy and has an authoritative voice. My husband is having an emotional attachment to her and has actually threatened to run away with her!

    My GPS is Arlene Maki, 'cause she pronounces some words just like my best ol' friend who is Finnish. I miss my old friend.

    Why not call her Carmen? "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?"

    LOL. I always think my GPS sounds so disgusted with me everytime she says "RECALCULATING."

    I was raised in a strict home, and I call my GPS "Ma'M". She sounds so proper, when she tells me to turn my immediate response is Yes, Ma'm. I had it on a male voice, and was responding "yes, sir"...so changed it back to female and just call her ma'm. Manners are so stuck in my head it just seemed normal.
