I'm getting a new laptop for Xmas and need to come up with the name for it. Out of the names listed in the poll, which do you like best? My current laptop's name is Sojourn. I want my new one to have a mythological name.
Have you named your computer, iPod, car, etc? What are their names?
In addition to Sojourn, my iPod's name is Guillaume. My car has an embarrassing name that is not safe in mixed company.

Someone's forgot the "'monkey' must always be a poll option" rule.

I love the name Antigone. Could be because, back in the ol' BBS days, I had a major crush on a girl who used the name Antigone. *sighs wistfully*
I just bought a new laptop this week! Guess what I named it?
Owen!

I figured it would be pretty obvious. Somehow I think your guesses would have gone in an entirely different direction, though, AP!

You name your computers, Lauren?
Interesting. I'm guessing it'd be too late for me to name my computers, since I've had both of them for almost a year...
I kinda like Sarasvati. The name reminds me of a couple songs that I loved back in the day.
Oh, BTW
LesterG-kun... I think you forgot the "Y" in your message, above, or was that intended?
