It's your machine, you can name it how you wish. My named machines are vintage ones named after relatives who did good work. I am not familiar with that movie so I don't know if that criteria works. I haven't named my 'new' treadle yet. She'll tell me her name when I clean her up. It may involve moving a name and renaming a machine I may not keep.
At least machine one on the vintage site is named Bubba. I hope they were thinking male.
