A name can mean many things to many people it labels people but it can also make us feel closer to things. So I ask you does your console or PC have a name? I named my 360 snake after my old XBOX.

My laptop is named VitalVampyr, I name all my devices that (and by "all my devices" I mean also my Zune).

That's also my YouTube account.

If a device is to be named i just use my first name, but i don't give it a name as you would give your car a name, i think that's kinda silly. If i had to choose i'd go with 'The Beast'.

Yeah. I call it "my computer", unless it craps out on me.

Then I call it "my mother!@#$%^& piece of *&^% computer".

My PC is called Peach, which is what I named my temporary sailing boat when I was begging it not to capsize. Now I call my computer Peach when I'm begging it not to crash. My 360 is called "The 360" and my wii is called "Paperweight" at the moment.

I once called my Wii Denise as a joke (as in, when someone bumped it over, I yelled "Denise, no!"), and the name just stuck

My 360 is Fluffly the console that only loves!

My PSP is Fred but I will love him and pet him and call him George.

PC is PC. He rejected all the names because of an overclocked sass back chip.

You know, I once used to yell at my computer for freezing..

then I looked down and saw that its air vent was mostly clogged with lint and dust

and I actually felt really bad that I had yelled at it when it was my fault.

I used to love the semi-unique names the original Xbox came with. I think mine was Spanky when I tried to network it.

My black-cased desktop PC is called Black Sunshine.

The hostnames for my three computers are Arcturus (desktop/gaming), Canopus (web server/ftp/ssh) and Fomalhaut (laptop).

I don't actually call them that, but when I'm accessing them through my internal network, a name is nicer than a bunch of numbers.

PC's name is Captain Falcon. Since he crashes about as much as I do in F-Zero, and I Falcon Punch it and expect it to work.
Behold my logic.

I named it so it can be identified on my network, but it doesn't have a name.

But anyway, I named it after this song:

I think my 360 is named 'Baby' because of how many times I've said 'come on baby, don't freeze on me now' while playing it.

My PS2 is called 'mon cherrie,' since it is indeed my love.

My PC is named Wadsworth Longfellow... I'm not sure why.

Well my Desktop is affectionately dubbed the Franken-puter. I built it by combining the parts of several dead computers into one.

My laptop is Lappy.

Recently my computer has come into several equally offensive nicknames, the most common of which is "asswhore".
