I only have one, and I don't have a name for it. There are things I call it from time to time, but can't repeat on here. LOL

Never thought of that. I call my Brother-"BRO". Thanks for the info. All others are girl names.

MY Brothers do not have names either. But I do call them names from time to time.

Thank you for all the responses. I have enjoyed reading all them.

career all those year ago.

My FW was named, Little Miss, but I've re-named her "Shirley", after my MIL who originally had her. My Brother machine is, "Awesome", 'cause, well, it's awesome, and my (new to me) Singer 401 is "Trusty". I also have an inexpensive Kenmore that I never use and never named it.

I call my Innova Pinkie because she was supposed to be Pink, but Fedex "drop" shipped her and had send her back. The one that replaced her was not pink. But we had gotten used to calling her pinkie before she got here. My Bernina is "Bernie" Old Montgomery Ward is called Old Montie, My little Janome is just referred to as WeeBitty. I never named my serger or my Kenmore. Bye the way, my old Caddilac is call the old Hussy because the clicker is almost worn out and about half the time won't unlock her.
