This thread is so funny. I do name most of my machines, also. And some of the cars I own or owned. My black FW is Maggie May, my HV Topaz 20 is Topaz (how original ??), my white FW "pending" name is Pearl, my old Kenmore is Katie. My car names are ..A 1965 Nova I owned when I was young was "Bertha", A Corolla was "Lola the Corolla", A Toyota Previa minivan was "The Mother Ship" and my newest is a 2 door MB roadster and her name is "Rosie" (she's red). There has been many cars and sewing machine that went un-named...Poor things LOL
