I call the TSC2's on the R6's and S6's Mona.

The Leica robot is called Gizmo.

Have never actually given an instrument a name, it was more in the way I talked and appreciated her that mattered....and meant every word.

They are also easy to replace with a new model and retire the older one to the shelf.

Hope you have a plan when Fred or Gracie talks back.....

You're kiddin right Joe? Do yo name your car's too? I don't name inanimate objects, myself, it's simply "the gun".

I always thought naming things was kind of girly 😉

LOL

No...I'm not...lol

My Ford Mustang was named Mary Jane.
My Hiper is named Steve.

Sorry ...but I was dropped on my head as a kid.

This reminds me of the time I was hired to log some beetle kill off of a retired couples parcel.

I show up one morning in my beat up old rubber tired skidder. The gal comes out and wanted to know what I had named my skidder as she thought all vehicles needed a name.

I told her I had called it quite a few things when its broken down on me, but I had never actually named it.

Let it name itself based on it's performance. Like animals, they always bring a name to mind based on their actions.
