    I have enough trouble naming the foster dogs I have so my machines do not have names. Neither did my cars. However one car I had was named by my daughter. I had a 74 Galaxie 500 green. She called it the Snotmobile. lol

    My daughter needs a car like this! What a great feature.

    The car's name is Wolfie....because it's gray like a wolf.

    My car is Brown Betty (a brown Kia Sportage that I LOVE.)

    My old machine is the Brother

    My new one is Juki. ( I really like the name Juki and call her that, even though it is not original)

    the Grace GMQ I call the Big Rig.

    And my beloved 1948 Yellow Chambers stove is "Mama's Baby"

    There are usually between 8-12 dogs in my house too, all of whom have named and are sometimes even called by the right one. (we rescue Italian Greyhounds).

    My husband is Sweetheart or Daddy.
