Naming Random Things.

Naming Random Things.

So I think I saw someone post one of these for instruments in DtE, but I haven't named my piano yet so I can't really post there. 

I do have some random things named, so I would like to share them!

~ A smoke detector.  Yep.  The smoke detector outside my bathroom goes off every time the steam from a hot shower gets outside the room and says, "Evacuate!  Smoke detected!"  My mom and I named the voice that it speaks "Smokey" because it's a smoke detector.

~ A sharpie.  I have a thin-tipped sharpie that has the whole tip (even the gray part at the top) black, and if I press the side of it against paper, it leaves a blot.  So, like any sensible person, I named the sharpie "Inkblot."

~ Google Maps.  Last summer, when we went to Pacific Grove for a week, my mom said that she should name the Google Maps voice she was using.  I wanted to name it "Miss Amanda Pear" because the enicials were MAP, but my mom insisted on using "Mappy Appy Pappy" because it's a lot more fun and still has the enicials MAP.

So does anyone else name their objects?

My friend named his trash can Larry.

In my bio class we were doing a lab that involved us planting three radish seeds, and I ended up naming them Frank, Perry, and Clyde.

These aren’t really things, but I have four frogs in a tank in my room, named BB, Chip, Boberick, and Gizelda. My siblings and I each named one.

I would say more, but it's past 11 and I haven’t been inconspicuous enough that my parents forget I’m awake.
