Just like ,nhweaver, said, give it a little time. Her personality will let you know what to name her. All my machines have names; Lizzie, my all time favorite, Rosie, Mable, I Love Lucy, Sweet Baby Jane, Bonnie, Pandora,my newest Brother, I never know what she is going to do and she never makes a beautiful stitch,we have a love/hate relationship! Good luck with your new machine. MAWLUV

I have only named my Featherweight. Her name is Quiltie because I only use her for piecing quilt tops. My Bernina is nameless.

My Bernina 930 is referred to as my "dependable friend" and my Bernina 820 is called "Big Momma"

My vintage Free Westinghouse is Stella. I wanted a name that went with her time period.
My Elna is Shelby, I don't know why - it just fit. I guess it makes me think of a strong-willed, outgoing woman figure or the sleek, fast Shelby Mustang.
My Brother is Little Brother.

All my machines have names. Afterall, they are my dear friends. I have Tilda, Silvie (15's), Opal & Esther (the twins 301's), then I have Mr. T (the treadle in a parlour cabinet) Big Mama,and babe (janome's) and Sweet Pea, my little toy machine. Oh, and my latest, Lucy (99). Yep, she needs a name. it will come to you.

After you have sewn on her for a while you will find a name will come to you!
