iPod What is your iPod's Name?

[dotdotdot]

I wish I could make my iPod a symbol like Prince.

 

[The Exile]

Ok its good to see people with the name themes. I know now that I'm not alone. My pods don't follow the theme, but they do have nice names so yeah.

Airport Express = The Net
Blue & white G3 = Mainframe
Powerbook = Megaframe
3G 20GB = Nostromo
1GB shuffle = BoomStick

 

[Tzuriel]

20GB iPod called escapePod
1GB iPod shuffle called shuffleBoard

 

[ChrisBrightwell]

3G 20GB = Nostromo

OK ... this is a pretty obvious Alien reference.

1GB shuffle = BoomStick

Army of Darkness? Please tell me that it is. That would be quite clever.

Maybe he's just a Joseph Conrad fan. (Nostromo, Sulaco, and Patna [from the Alien³ novelization] are all from Joseph Conrad's novels.)

Yes this is my boomstick. From Army of darkness. The Net, Mainframe and Megaframe came from a cartoon called reboot.

I named my new 40GB iPod Photo "Ansel"

The 20GB iPod is "Bytor" and my shuffle is "shuffle."

 

[Opticalatlas]

My iPod Shuffle's name is Besser!
Why the name Besser? 2 reasons:
1) first song i heard on the playa was by the band Dressy Bessy
2) i was going to name him Curly after the "Curly Shuffle" but i thought other people would name their iPod Shuffle "Curly". So I went with the other "3rd Stooge", Joe Besser

hence the name of my iPod Shuffle---> Besser

Ok its good to see people with the name themes.

12" PB G4 Rev. A- "blackstar" ("blame it on the blackstar...")
15GB iPod G3- "yoshimi" ("her name is yoshimi....")
512mb Shuffle- "Alistair" (misinterpretted Arcade Fire lyrics)

2001 A Space iPodyssey (iPod Photo 40GB)

We have yet to name our new 6GB iPod Mini Blue.

 

[Abulia]

My new 6GB mini is iDon. I engraved this on the unit as well.

Not so clever, but the guys at work have started calling iDon by name.

 

[Peyote]

My iPod is named:

"Mr. iPod"

 

[Sundance Kid]

I really think MY ipods name is very good


My ipod's name is Hamish.----> My name is James, in latin my name in Jacob, and in Gaelic Jacob means Hamish.





HAHA.... too bad it has no reference to Conrad's books... that would just be too cool.

 

[MacHarne]

queen-esque

The 3G 20GB is named ::sigh:: Riona. She has been protected, since day one, with a Carbon iSkin - no chrome scathing of any type.

 

[mariahlullaby]

My 20GB is mPod (after my first name, Maggie) and my mini is minime

 

[coleg]

my ipod has "cole groff and kilgore trout" etched in the back.

kilgore trout is a character in kurt vonnegut books. cole groff is me.

i don't know if that counts as a name.

[Minus Blindfold]

I ended up calling my new iPod 6GB "Frances the Jukebox"

 

[ChrisBrightwell]

I ended up calling my new iPod 6GB "Frances the Jukebox"

I take it you like the new album, then?

 

[panphage]

My 15GB 3G is, oddly enough, panphage. The wife's 10GB 2G is Trogdor.

 

[panphage]

My 2G 10gig's called Ummon (goes with the WinterMute reference) I'm looking at a new 40 gig, but it means I have to ge read some Gibson again to find another name...

Use Count Zero. Best. Name. Ever.

Or figure out what the cube is called in pattern recognition. I can't remember if it had a name or if it was just "<character name's> cube".

I call my 4th gen iPod Megatron. Not original, but I can't recall the clever names I gave to my other 3G iPods that wound up being sent back to Apple. Megatron's been the healthiest so far.

I'll give you two you might like and you can pay me later. These are both noise bands, one from Chicago (or maybe detroit? I forget) and one from Japan:
Gravitar
Negatron (see, you just change one letter, instant creativity!)
