    I have a babylock serger which is just 'serger'. I have a 4 yr old Pfaff 2048 that I call the 'Pfaff-tastic' and my 76yr old Singer 15-91 I call 'Old Ironsides'.

    My 115 is named Gretel because she has gingerbread decals. One of my FWs is Baby and the other is Daddy's Girl (picked out by my DH). My 66-1 redeye is named Lucy. No name for my 201, brother, or viking - I wait until the perfect name occurs to me!

    I have an old Kenmore named Rose after my friend who gave it to me, a featherweight (1951) that I haven't named yet and my pride and joy the ABM Innova longarm named Pat. When it is behaving it's name is Pat (girl) and when it's behaving badly it's name is Pat (boy). Remember Pat from Saturday Night Live....how you couldn't tell if it was a boy or girl? Actually it's never been a boy since I've had it but JUST in case, it'll be Pat.

    I have a 1951 15-91 Singer I named Fusi after my fairy quilt godmother. (I was working on it when I found the machine at a garage sale.
    I have a 1980's Singer Fashion Mate I named Trackie because I bought this machine at a tractor show.
    I named my Pfaff, Pfreda, just because.
    I named my Viking Rose, Rosie. Really original huh?
    I still have a 1972 Kenmore, and a Babylock serger that don't have names, but need work.
    I have a 1930's Singer treadle without a name. :)

    Haven't named any of my machines either but I have named our generator which is natural gas run and comes on automatically within 15 or so seconds after power goes out. Boy do I love "Zoe"!!! She has brought stress free living to this house no matter what kind of weather is headed our way .... or if a squirrel jumps to the wrong spot while crossing the road on the high wires (poor thing). I would give up a lot of my "stuff" to keep Zoe working.
