A lovely little baby girl! What will you name her?

April 18, 2006 4:03 PM

My brand new Sony Ericsson W600i needs a female name to match its orange-red exterior.

All Bluetooth devices need a name to connect, all my small portable electronic devices are female (psychological analysis of my condition welcome!).

Examples of current names for my tech devices:

Laptop name: Katie, Workstation name: Brunhilda, Black iPod Name: Raven, Name of Retired Nokia Phone: Grace.

Hope me Metafilter, you're my only, umnn.. hope.

Best answer: Pick a Swedish (Ericsson) or Japanese (Sony) name?
I've always been partial to Lucia.

Oh, congratulations, and treat her well. My w600i got yoinked right out from under my nose last Friday, and I barely have it in me to get another cell phone. I wound up posting a Missed Connection on Craigslist for it, in fact. Something along the lines how I assumed it'd be going home with me after the the show...how I can't afford to let something like this slip through my fingers, etc, etc, we were always together. Enough about my loss, though, for this should be a happy time, filled with joyous anticipation of your new life together. Mazel Tov!
